We are, of course, amazed that our readers occasionally disagree with our brilliant and witty essays. In fact, sometimes quite a few readers think that The Outrage editors are wrong, misanthropic, idiotic, selfish, deluded, or all of the above.
Mother Outrage always told us that even the dull and the ignorant should have their say, so we've allowed space below for those dissenting opinions (and for shameless flattery).

Is anybody really surprised that a President with a history of using whatever means necessary to destroy those who oppose his agenda would use the IRS to do a little more of what he's been doing for YEARS now? I fully expect an audit any day now!

It's so predictable. Sour grapes still clinging to the political vine. Still can't stand the fact that your fat cat publican (as in the guys Jesus drove from the temple I.E. moneychangers) didn't manage to put in another president. Falling full flat on your own overstuffed faces to believe all the hype about Clinton. Funny how five years and 30 million bucks later we still don't have any real news to report, just more hype...HYPE...HYYYYYYYYYYPPPPPEEEEEE.
I wonder why Janet Reno is hesitant to appoint a special prosecutor for the ...quote... campaign finance irregularities... which were most definitely commited only by Democrats, especially Bill Clinton...especially Al Gore. Could it possibly be that she recognizes sour grapes when she sees them. Could it be that this song has been sung before by the ripoffublicans. Oh well, the brainwashing is almost complete I suppose. Let the rich have it all. Or am I the brainwashed one...
God help me... I think it's too late...What's truth and what's reality...Is this some kind of tunnel I'mmmmmmm innnnnnnn....Wait the darkness is clearing...Oh I understand it all now. Politics is power. Money is power. Republicans spend on average twice as much as democrats. Republicans have more money. Yes it's all coming clear now. I'm sorry, My brainwashing is coming out. My mind is clearing now. Money is truth. Republicans are truth.

There is no need for discriminated against, economically RAPED, tax paying slaves to pay the IRS to collect any income, social security or sales tax from SLICKS donating labor and material to build Habitat for Humanity Houses, Amish barns, Churches, houses to sell for profit to subsidize Christian schools and quilts and crafts sold at non-profit, tax exempt relief sales.
If it weren't for the IRS collecting tax from discriminated against, economically RAPED, tax paying slaves to pay for Holy SLICKS tax refund for buying a place in Heaven from Holy Hucksters for "send your tax deductable donation to us". These Holy SLICKS would alledgelly end up in Hell with with their discriminated against, honest, economically RAPED, tax paying slaves who responsibly ABORT CONCEIVING CHILDREN until they have a living, union wage or profit from an independent business. To effectively honor their marriage aggreement to protect, LOVE and provide for the family they conceived.
Without the IRS. Who would collect tax from economically RAPED, tax paying slaves to pay for Anti-American buisnesses tax abatements and everything parisites, volenteers without wages and slaves working for Anti-American buisnesses, who refuse to adhere to mother natures DEMAND, they market the cost of EVERY EMPLOYEES living, union wage, profit and the cost of America existing in THE REAL WORLD, have to STEAL to live.
The majority of 49% of we, the government who vote and the 51% who sit on their hands and whine (pray). Have successfully elected a President, Legislators and elected officials with the technolagy and the ludicrust audicity to hold innocent children accountable to pay foreign and domestic investors, the Bulls on Wall Street and the Hillary's investing in the grain futures and pharmaceutical drugs $187,150 when their born in America.
The impossibility of law abiding, discriminated against, economically RAPED tax paying slaves having to DEMAND, Pro-American businesses adhere to mother natures DEMAND, they market the cost of all these glorified, socialized, Communist practices, the cost of their living union wage, profit and the cost of America existing in THE REAL WORLD and compete with Anti-American businesses in the market place. Has created over a five trillion dollar debt. Innocent children are responsible to pay interest on until their 18 years old. Then pay the interest and debt with the $5.15 per hour labor wage. We, the government elected Congress to enact.

I think your commentary is interesting, but I think you need to quote some numbers such as "what percentage of Americans are audited" and "what percentage of companies are audited" as well. For me to take your outrage at face value, I would like to see what chance these people would have had were they to never have made these accusations.
Also, there is some aspect of curiosity in knowing how squeaky clean these people are. You know the expression about calling the kettle black? Well, I think these people who take a "holier-then-thou" attitude shoud have to come under the scrutiny of the microscope as well. So in some respect it may be the karma of defensiveness taking action against these people.
Then again, it could be plain old abuse of power. I really don't know. I know that if someone tried to harm me in some way and I was completely innocent, my instincts would tell me to fight back. Maybe those IRS agents are just animals.
Norm's 2 cents.

It shouldn't surprise anyone by now (one agency acting as judge, jury and ex). Since the sixties OSHA has been doing exactly that.
McNeil Stokes, lawyer for a contractor in the Alanta, GA area, lost an appeal to the US Supreme Court wherein his client was denied his right to a jury trial, or any trial for that matter. The Court cited Admiralty law and Immigration law as their authority for denying the right to trial in spite of the 6th and 7th ammendments to the Constitution!

Let's take a look at ANOTHER coincidence, shall we? Why didn't those 21 Republicuckoos, or any other Republidorks, complain about Kenneth Starr becoming the head of the Whitewater investigation? Isn't HIS being head of that debacle one heck of a coincidence? I mean, Starr volunteered to do legal work on behalf of Ms. Paula Corbin Jones. If I'm not mistaken, I think he offered, at one point in time, to represent her. And now, he's head of the Whitewater thing, and has spent $30 million dollars of the taxpayers' money, only to come to the conclusion that Vincent Foster really DID kill himself. Those 21 members of Congress sure do seem to be awfully selective about who and what they think is retaliatory and politically motivated.
Rage Back!
