QOTD - Black Humor

The IRS is on a roll this week with not one, but now two knee-slappers. First with respect to an audit of the Breitbart news group:

The agency said in a statement: "Federal privacy laws prohibit the IRS from commenting on specific taxpayer situations. The IRS stresses that audits are based on the information related to tax returns and the underlying tax law -- nothing else. Audits are handled by career, non-partisan civil servants, and the IRS has safeguards in place to protect the exam process."

So that's on the up-and-up you can believe. Then there's this:

“Whenever we can, we follow the law.” IRS Chief John Koskines

So even more confirmation that whatever it is they're doing, it must be O.K.

They're searching tirelessly for the e-mails to prove it too.
