So the "coincidences" continue. Justice Dept whistleblower audited.
You can add me to that list.
After Obama was elected, I faced my first IRS audit shakedown after decades of filing income tax returns. Overdue coincidence? Perhaps.
Given the headlines of the past 48 hours, perhaps not.
My audit experience was a headache, as anyone who has experienced one can attest. When it happened, a former IRS lawyer with whom I associated in private practice told me – “it’s no accident you were audited.”
I brushed it off. But I wonder how many left wing election lawyers and leftist bloggers were audited. Any Media Matters drones face an audit in the last four years? Step right up and announce yourself if you did.
Now we are learning that IRS employees committed crimes to aid the Left – shaking down conservative groups for information, and leaking the results to the Left.
I saw the IRS letters to Tea Party groups years ago. They read like an opposition researcher’s fantasy: demands for the names of volunteers, money, content of speeches, donors, offices, on and on and on.
Last week President Obama addressed Ohio State students. He told them to ignore the voices warning them of big intrusive government. In doing so, he gave the middle finger to the philosophy and people who launched this nation.
Ronald Reagan was the better of Obama in so many ways, including his understanding of human history. He rightly warned us of a danger as old as time – that “freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.”
This wild, disturbing and dishonest week makes clear which of the two Presidents was right.
And about that IRS shakedown, after the audit, and many hours of wasted time, the IRS ended up owing me $100.

Good one!
I was audit by the IRS after many posting on my FB in 2010 & 2009 disagreeing with this Administration. They audit my returns in May 2010 for 2008, 2009, and 2010. It has been a nightmare for me ever since costing me lots of money and growing by the minute.
Some good ones there. Sharing them around!
I too have friends involved in a business with the name Patriot -————.
They were harassed, threatened and audited by some very questionable individuals.
Wonder how the NE Patriots did with their taxes?
(maybe the fact that Kraft is a Baraqqi helped them out)
I’ll bet tax accountants, attorneys and consultants have done quite well feeding off conservatives being audited. It is expensive, time consuming and a source of great anxiety.
You’ve got a rap hit in the making there! No seriously, it reads like rap. :)
There’s a Patriot gas station up on the corner. I wonder if they got audited.
Love Mom, apple pie, and the flag? #flaggedforaudit #RichardMilhousObama
Yeah, I'd like to know too.. Any "media matters' jerks get audited? I'll bet NOT...
LOL... I might have to signup for Twitter just for the laughs.
Conservatives have considerable numbers on twitter.
If you’ve ever “shot the breeze” w. a friend, you’ve commited an environmental hate crime and will be #FlaggedForAudit
