"Tough luck, Larry. My sister got audited. My dad was audited twice. Why do you think you are better than my dad or sister? What do you have to hide?"

Miss Marple, do you not believe that you have the right to know why certain people get targed for IRS audits? Especially when the IRS does not have any proof of criminal wrong doing and does not publish standards on who gets audited and who doesn't? This doesn't seem like equal treatment under the law to me and this certainly leaves room for biased leeway in the law. I am surprised that you are not questioning the IRS more.

There are a certain number of people who are audited every year. An audit does not require a suspicion of criminal wrongdoing. In both my sister and my father's cases, they had unusually large deductions which the IRS questioned. Once proof of the accuracy of those deductions was shown, no further action was taken by the IRS.

Do I like the IRS? No. BUT, the same rules apply to Larry Klayman as my sister and my father. He can show them his records and answer their questions, just like they did.

Nice try, but because I think that Larry has to submit to the laws that apply to the rest of us does NOT make me a cheerleader for the IRS. If Larry thinks this is politically motivated, then why is Ashcroft not intervening? But wait...if Ashcroft intervened, wouldn't THAT be politically motivated? I mean, he would be intervening to protect Larry, wouldn't he?

Too bad for Klaymman. I hope he hasn't got anything to hide...as in donations from the DNC.
