It's obvious that under this President, the IRS has gotten smarter. They recognize that Republicans are the biggest tax cheats, and they are going after them. They are good. In other words, "sorry Republicans that we have to go after you, but you are overwhelmingly the biggest tax cheats in the history of mankind."

Kudos to the IRS.

I agree.

There are more tax cheats in the administration than this targeting effort caught.

I didn't know that Tim Geithner and Charles Wrangle are Republicans. By the way it was Bill Clinton who pardoned Marc Rich, the biggest tax cheat in US history. Do you ever get tired of being wrong Lexus?

Sure the IRS admitted "fault", but they are in the right. They shed some light on you tax-cheating Pubs, and now you're squealing and whining. Your party continues to flail away desperately trying to be relevant, while bleeding to death. Kudos to the IRS.

Hope you get better.
Cue predictable liberal smug arrogance. You comments look like a clear effort to troll. They ignore the fact that Dem leadership has also condemned the actions of the IRS, up to and including POTUS. Following your assertion that Presisent Obama is high, noble and intelligent, then who is wrong in this case? You, or the president?
