Lol, no one cares.
Seriously, cutting back the IRS budget like Congress just did, just might get some of the underlings to start blowing the whistle on management’s efforts to hinder conservative groups.
If you watched management conduct a witch hunt against conservatives and now your own paycheck is getting cut, you just might consider getting even with the management that caused the budget cuts out of Congress.
The power of the purse is considerable, and I think we’re going to see it used a lot in the next year. Employees at the EPA and the Dep’t of Justice should also be concerned.
I am trying to feel any sense of pity or sadness, but I just cannot muster anything but giddiness.
Aw, dat’s tough. I’m cryin’ here.
Wow, another good news story. Cool...
How long can we keep the IRS shut down?
We need to chain the doors shut.

The IRS auditor was not surprised when Grandpa showed up with his attorney.
The auditor said, 'Well, sir, you have an extravagant lifestyle and no full-time employment, which you explain by saying that you win money gambling.
I'm not sure the IRS finds that believable.'
I'm a great gambler, and I can prove it,' says Grandpa. 'How about a demonstration?'
The auditor thinks for a moment and said, 'Okay. Go ahead.'
Grandpa says, 'I'll bet you a thousand dollars that I can bite my own eye.'
The auditor thinks a moment and says, 'It's a bet....’
Grandpa removes his glass eye and bites it.
The auditor's jaw drops.
Grandpa says, 'Now, I'll bet you two thousand dollars that I can bite my other eye.'
Now the auditor can tell Grandpa isn’t blind, so he takes the bet.
Grandpa removes his dentures and bites his good eye.
The stunned auditor now realizes he has wagered and lost three grand, with grandpa's attorney as a witness. He starts to get nervous.
'Want to go double or nothing' Grandpa asks? 'I'll bet you six thousand dollars that I can stand on one side of your desk, and pee into that wastebasket on the other side, and never get a drop anywhere in between.'>[? The auditor, twice burned, is cautious now, but he looks carefully and decides there's no way this old guy could possibly manage that stunt, so he agrees again.
Grandpa stands beside the desk and unzips his pants, but although he strains mightily, he can't make the stream reach the wastebasket on the other side, so he pretty much urinates all over the auditor's desk.
The auditor leaps with joy, realizing that he has just turned a major loss into a huge win.
But Grandpa's own attorney moans and puts his head in his hands.
'Are you okay?' the auditor asks.
'Not really,' says the attorney. 'This morning, when Grandpa told me he'd been summoned for an audit, he bet me twenty-five thousand dollars that he could come in here and piss all over your desk and that you'd be happy about it!'
Al Sharpton is good for about 20% of that, just pick a few more reverends and you will pay for it all.
Say, I know how we save a quick $10,585,000,000 in next year's budget...!
Another oxymoron....civil servant...they aren’t civil and they serve no one.
This is not really good news. This is further ineptitude from Republicans.
Instead of reforming the tax code so that fewer IRS personnel need to be employed, Boehner’s RINO leadership took the chicken out route and simply slashed IRS funding. What’s that change? It means that those of us who pay taxes are likely to get even worse service, and it doesn’t change any of the collections or payouts IRS performs.
It’s so much easier to cut funds from an agency than to make hard choices. It’s another FAIL!

Isn’t this the same Jack Ass that while under oath told the House committee Lerners emails were not recoverable?
Jon Lovitz he ain’t!
Is this supposed to bother us?
As long as I get my refund due me. They can poop in a can for all I care.
