Darn, time go buy more popcorn.
Oh and if anybody is watching the Penny Pritzker Commerce Sec confirmation hearings - it is the funniest pile of manure I've seen since, well yesterday.
Did you know she's qualified because the bank her family owned went bankrupt due to bad mortgage loans in of all places Chicago?
Can't make it up........oh and her money is stashed in the Caymans.
I want to see LARGE NUMBERS of IRS employees and Obama Regime officials heading to jail. I strongly suspect that “Tax Agents” will be as popular in prison as child molesters are.
Are we reaching critical mass?
Audit rates for Romney donors will be higher than for the average tax payer because Romney donors tend to be wealthier than the average taxpayer.
Now, if you control for wealth, and see a spike of audtis for Romney donors, that would be something.
OK Sen. Coburn, the only way this gets solved is by disbanding the IRS. Can we count on you to lead the charge?
Freedom is at stake here people. If the IRS gets away with this it will never be held accountable again. They will be free to intimidate anyone at any time. Time to man up GOP.
bflr

I believe Varney from FBN said it was a mere 80 million dollars that her accountant forgot to disclose.
OOPS!
John Cornyn of Texas has set up a hotline for businesses to report if the IRS singled them out. I hope it turns up some irrefutable trends.
This is EXACTLY the kind of abuse of power by the executive branch that the founders sought to prevent.
Most people are only audited once. Audits are happening all the time. Automatic audits from matching income are increasing in frequency because the IRS is matching more data every year.
Congress should ask for the IRS’s internet records and see who all was going to donation sites like opensecrets.org (which should be blocked from gov’t computers imo)
Even Coburn seems to want to stop short of saying that the singling out of Romney donors is a fact, but it does make everyone wonder.
Indeed the big story here is that the IRS is fast losing any credibility for being impartial. Most people have had some apprehension about the IRS, and most probably inherently dislike it (no one likes to pay taxes), but this will spread fear and complete distrust.
I think we should go print out some of those “Tax Closure” notioces that they love to plaster on the front doors of businesses when they close them down....
We should print them out and then go to our local IRS offices and tape them to their windows and doors as a protest.....
But they would send in DHS and probabaly have us all hauled away....
Wasn’t Harry Reid the on going on and on about Romneys tax records? Wonder where that info came from? Perhaps Issa or Gowdy can ask.
Still the tip of an iceberg...
Oh come on, this all can be demonstrated as statistically insignificant. The IRS purpose is to collect revenues from those who work and make money. Because rich Republicans have money they pay the taxes. Democrats don’t work (or work off-the-books) and their right in life is to accept redistribution of said taxes. Would you be happier if the IRS sought out more Democrats to give money to? /s
