The (Bi-Partisan) IRS Blues

For the Dumbos, the nightingale's song is "Tax Cuts." The manta of voodoo economics is cut taxes and cut spending and the devil take the hindmost. On the other side of the tax spectrum, the POTUS needed to hire H&R Block, not the Transition Team, to vet his Cabinet appointees. Further, why aren't the Donkey tax scofflaws subject to the draconian fines that afflicted Joe Louis and Willie Nelson? If it's fine for The Brown Bomber and the Blue-Eyed Stranger to pay and pay, it ought to be fine for all of the sorry chiselers tabbed as the "best and the brightest" by the Gang Who Couldn't Appoint Straight (aka the Obama Transition Team). If this is (fair & balanced) taxation idiocy and incompetence, so be it.

Broken Record

[John Sherffius began drawing editorial cartoons for the Daily Bruin, the campus newspaper at UCLA. After two years of working as a freelance artist, after graduation, he was hired by the Ventura County Star in Southern California as a graphic artist and gradually worked his way into editorial cartooning for the paper. In 1998, he was hired by the St. Louis Post-Dispatch as the newspaper's editorial cartoonist, a job he held until 2003 when he quit the paper over editorial differences. Sherffius bridled at editorial insistence that he tone down cartoons attacking Republicans. Sherffius then went to work for the Boulder Daily Camera where his cartoons appear regularly and are syndicated nationally by the Copley News Service. Sherffius won the 2008 Herblock Prize for Editorial Cartooning.]
