2. Diebold has probably given the names & addresses of everybody who (tried to) voted democratic in the

last two elections.

3. I have speculated, only half tongue-in-cheek, that my political
leanings are EXACTLY why the IRS audited me for 2002, 2003, and 2004. And the auditor was practically apologetic after doing 2003 and only finding a trivial $500 error on my part, and then he couldn't find anything in his paperwork/internal documents to explain why they were even doing 2002. I just shrugged my shoulders and said I had no clue either. They of course came up empty on 2002.

2004 was another session with a different auditor - he spent more time giving me tips on how to arrange my bookkeeping setup and asking cat questions, lol. Found a small error, maybe $800.

They definitely wasted resources going after me. It made no sense whatsoever given the time they invested......

4. I thought the King granted them all a special dispensation. He just
has to wave his sceptre, beat the few remaining real Congress members over the head with it, and say, "Nukyooler" three times for the tax debt to vanish.
