President Clinton failed to appoint members to an
Internal Revenue Service Oversight Board mandated by
Congress in 1998, WorldNetDaily has learned.

The IRS Restructuring and Reform Act of 1998 became
law on July 22 of last year giving the president six
months to appoint members to the Oversight Board,
according to Trent Duffey, spokesman for the House
Ways and Means Committee. The six-month deadline
was Jan. 22 of this year.

"They (the White House) were supposed to pick an
independent oversight board six months after enactment,
and it's now over a year," said Duffey. "They opposed
the creation of an independent oversight board from the
very beginning. Only with great stubbornness by (Rep.
Bill) Archer and (Sen. William) Roth were we able to
keep that in the final law. They have yet to forward any
names."

Rep. Rob Portman, R-Ohio, a key architect of the 1998
IRS Reform law, believes the president's failure to
appoint members to the board is a cause for concern.
Commenting on the passing of the one-year anniversary
of the IRS reform enactment, Portman said, "The
administration's continued failure to follow the law and
nominate members for the Oversight Board should be a
source of concern to all taxpayers. Over the years, the
IRS has been remarkably resistant to change. The
Oversight Board is needed to ensure the IRS is held
accountable for its actions, taxpayers are treated fairly
and the reforms are sustained over time."

Why does this not surprise me? ... the question now is; What do we (or Congress) do now? How do we force them to appoint the board? Or do we throw them in Jail for not complying with the law? Can we get a SWAT team to do a "no-knock" arrest? That might get thier attention.
 
Can we get a SWAT team to do a "no-knock" arrest?

There's something I'd like to see: a shootout between DCPD's SWAT goons and the Praetorian Guard.

Seriously, there isn't a got-damn thing we can do, short of physically dragging Bubba out of his comfy little office and stringing him up. At least, that I can see.

Can I be the one to kick in the door?

"Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."
"How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."

George,

Isn't the one who kicks in the door usually the first one to get taken out?

Or were you planning on packing the GAU-8 from that Warthog? :)

There is little thrill in being the last one through the door. If its worth doing,do it right.

This boy is in league with old scratch. He has come a long way from the gambling and prostitution town of Hot Springs. The rockerfellows of Arkansas have groomned his to be El Presidente for the NWO also for a long time. Why should he follow any laws?
 
It is my understanding that the IRS is not a department of the government, but the collection agency (arm) of the federal reserve bank, which is not an agency of the government either.

Villify? Varify?

The IRS is a government organization under the Dept. of Treasury.

The Irs is bluntly the collecting agency of the Federal Reserve System. It collects your taxes and turns the taxes over to pay the interest on the huge national debt which is itself created by the Federal Reserve system. The master of the Irs is the Federal Reserve System. Get rid of one and you can get rid of the other. But way too late.
