Solving the administration's IRS perception problems
2009-02-03

A GEITHNER/DASCHLE/RANGEL INSPIRED IDEA FROM JIM BENNETT: “There must be some way for the GOP to move out aggressively on the administration’s IRS problems beyond making speeches that will be forgotten within days. I am sensing a huge anger on this out there. What about the idea of a moratorium on IRS audits for middle-class taxpayers (using any of Obama’s campaign-trail definitions, from $250K/yr on down) for at least a year? Obviously the IRS is short on auditors, so why not deploy them where they are most needed?”

That would be Hollyweird and Wall Street, both of whom are big donors to "Name that Party". Obviously a no-go from the start. Must keep the serfs nervous, cause no one ever expects The Spanish Inquisition the audit.

#1  Maybe they could jumpstart the economy by introducing a moratorium on interest and penalties for us common folk making under $250k.
