There are several prescient quotes to pull from this column.

<> The IRS has become a vehicle of repression.
<> The most ominous development in the IRS scandal is the confederation of executive and congressional authority in opposition to our fundamental rights.
<> In a free society, powers must be separated.
<> When the legislative and executive powers are united in the same person, or in the same body of magistrates, there can be no liberty.
<> We are dealing not merely with a single president, who presumes to rule by decree;
<> Enormous power is accumulating in an ideological movement that is hostile to free expression, one that views its political opposition not as fellow citizens with a different point of view but as enemies to be silenced and destroyed.
