The Liberal Union Behind the IRS (This is corruption, pure and simple)
American Spectator ^ | May 16, 2013 | Jeffrey Lord

Posted on 05/16/2013 6:04:23 AM PDT by marstegreg

It’s about a union: the National Treasury Employees Union. The NTEU. A left-wing union representing 150,000 employees in 31 separate government agencies, including the IRS. A union that not only endorsed President Obama for election and re-election, but a union whose current president, Colleen Kelly, was a 14-year IRS agent and now is both union president and Obama administration appointee (of which more in a moment).

It’s about 94% of NTEU union contributions going to Democrats in the Senate and House in 2012 — candidates who campaigned as vociferous opponents of the Tea Party.

And the recently released report from the Treasury Inspector General? You will not find a single reference to the NTEU. Whose members are both player and referee in the exploding controversy over the IRS targeting of conservative groups.

I can’t fathom a solution to this other than to disband the IRS.

And that can’t be done without repealing the income tax...

If this is all true, and I have no reason to doubt it; how do you take on such a huge entity?

I was thinking the same. This is scary.

...another solution may be to disband the union. Is that possible?

I agree with Mark Levin; that whole swamp known as the IRS (it’s anything but a “service”) should be drained and we should go to a flat tax system.
