A president shouldn't even joke about abusing IRS power.Tax Audits Are No Laughing Matter - WSJ.com

Do you Think Obama is joking?


The article adds that the integrity of the Internal Revenue Service is so important that a similar remark by an IRS employee would be cause for immediate dismissal.

Further proof that it is "amateur hour" at the White House. It is sad, really, how many people support him. I guess I can expect the IRS to show up on the doorstep for posting this.

I have to come the conclusion the people who buy into the Fraud currently in the Whitehouse are only happy Bush is not there. The celebration in Chicago election night was not about Obama it was about the end of the Bush Reign.

And further proof that hardcore right-wing conspiracy theorists are in abundance here on City-Data.

It doesn't matter what Obama does, he will be criticized by some. I imagine there are posters here who don't like the way he breathes.

You're wrong, but tell yourself whatever you need to if that's what makes you feel better.

hey Cap it was a joke & the WSJ comparing Obama to Nixon? Give me a break Obama isn't going to sick the evil IRS on ASU for not giving him a Honorary Degree. Besides Obama has a degree from Harvard what would he do with a degree from ASU anyways? Probably wipe his butt with it if he runs out of toilet paper.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure you're getting audited because of your comment on City Data.

Since I moved to Florida I really miss the mountains sometimes, but not the ones right wingnuts make out of molehills. It was just a joke like when he said his father was Jor-El. (or do you think that was serious too?)
When he jokes about cancer, then maybe I'll take it seriously.

It is going to get to the point where becoming President isn't something anyone will want. You can't take a step without someone analyzing how you walk to the 9th degree. IT WAS A JOKE! Time to move along lol
