FOX NEWS ran a poll yesterday about the I.R.S. and determined that
97% of the country either wants the I.R.S. drastically overhauled or
abolished altogether as a result of recent revelations about the agency
targeting of conservative groups for audits, etc.
I
say the I.R.S.is not the problem; it is simply one of several symptoms
of a high-flying and corrupt government running amok. Think about it:
(1) the Administration has flipped its collective finger to the country
by stonewalling Fast & Furious and Benghazi; (2) there's E.P.A.
targeting conservative organizations and businesses; (3) there's the
Justice Department illegal seizure of records from the Associated Press,
and then (4) the I.R.S. thing. Collectively taken, there is but only one conclusion: there is a culture of anti-American activity in Washington.
Simply
attacking the I.R.S. will not be a panacea for solution; that's only
attacking a symptom. The existence of such a culture can only occur
under the direction of the President or under his tacit approval and
so-called "turning a blind eye" to the situation. That's the level
where it starts. That's where the blame squarely belongs.
Now, what are we going to to about it?
