Just When You Thought She Was Gone
SACRAMENTO, CA (KXTV) - The federal government has filed a lawsuit to force anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan to provide her financial records to the Internal Revenue Service.Boy-howdy, she's in trouble now! An IRS revenue officer said Sheehan refused to answer any questions about her finances after receiving a summons at her Vacaville home. Not a smart move, but then, she's never been accused of being smart. Just a tool. The U.S. Attorney's office on Tuesday filed a petition to enforce the IRS summons. Oh, my! A summons! The summons ordered Sheehan to produce bank account statements for the period from August through early November 2011. Four lousy months? C'mon Cindy you can do this time standing on your head. According to IRS revenue officer Jose Arteaga, the financial information may be relevant to the collection of Sheehan's federal income tax liabilities for tax years 2005 and 2006. So she's a tax cheat as well. My my my. Whooda thunk? Arteaga said Sheehan first met with him on Nov. 22 and sought an extension to Jan. 17. It was during the January meeting that she refused to answer any questions or produce the requested documents. I can say nothing! Sheehan said she's always been up front with the IRS and has no intention of paying her taxes. She says the government has already taken enough from her. It doesn't work that way, Bugwit. "If they (federal government), can give me my son back, I'll pay my taxes, but that's not going to happen," Sheehan said. Then you will probably loose everything you still have. Unless some other Bugwit pays them for you. Sheehan became an anti-war activist after her son, U.S. Army Specialist Casey Sheehan, was killed in Iraq. She attracted national attention after setting up a camp in 2005 near President George W. Bush's ranch in Texas. Miss me yet? More recently, Sheehan has been involved in the Occupy movement and was arrested during an October demonstration in Sacramento. I'm not surprised. Hangs around with the other leeches. The IRS lists Sheehan as self-employed. She was not immediately available for comment on the tax lawsuit. Posted by: Deacon Blues 2012-02-23 |
