Overnight Open Thread (5-20-2013)Bookworm: The IRS Scandal is the Worst Political Scandal in American History And she makes a good case that it is. I can't think of any other scandal where the government actually engaged in widespread extra-legal stifling of dissent on ideological grounds. Ignore all that. The absolute worst scandal that's emerged lately, and the worst administration scandal in American history is the IRS scandal. Why? Because you, the People, became the targets of a comprehensive federal government effort to stifle dissent, one made using the government's overwhelming and disproportionate policing and taxing powers. And whenever you see illegal thuggery, be sure and look for the union label. No doubt the NTEU's 94% donation rate to Democrats is completely irrelevant to how they would treat conservatives as IRS employees. Or maybe not. And clearly they're not willing to go after these known tax scofflaws. So if the president and the NTEU are colluding to punish their enemies, do we have any recourse at all?
And as DC law firm Patton Boggs is learning you can only file bogus environmental lawsuits against Chevron on your own initiative so many times before the bear notices. Since late 2010, Washington, D.C. law firm Patton Boggs has been poking a sleeping tiger. It has filed three peculiar federal lawsuits - in its own name, not on behalf of any client - against Chevron, the third-largest corporation in the United States. These cases have fared poorly; two were quickly dismissed, and a federal magistrate judge recommended tossing the third in March. The Wit and Wisdom of Nancy Pelosi Just remember that for four years she was Speaker of the House and only a VP away from becoming President. . Unemployment benefits are the best form of economic development. To Ask the Question Is To Answer It Charles C. W. Cooke wonders why those who freaked out about the PATRIOT Act and how it might lead to people's library records being seized aren't so concerned about the IRS asking conservative groups to hand over their Facebook posts and a list of books they were reading. Or for records of conversations they had or their positions on issues. Shouldn't the ACLU be as up in arms about the IRS's intrusion into people's privacy as they were about Homeland Security looking at suspected terrorist's use of library computers? The Utter Shamelessness of Candy Crowley She's back to claiming that Obama was late in calling the Benghazi attacks terrorism - just like she claimed before the debates. But in fact, Crowley's own news agency, CNN, had reported that Obama called the attacks at Benghazi terrorism "for the first time" only on September 20, nine days after the attacks. In even a moderately just world she would be shunned by every decent journalist in the field. The World's Least and Most Racially Tolerant Countries Anglo and Latin countries are the most tolerant - and India, Jordan, Bangladesh and Hong Kong are the least. Remember when Gandhi was asked what he thought about Western civilization, and he snarkily replied that it would be a good idea? Back atcha, Mohandas. Yeah Gandhi was great at witty snark - building an actual working multi-racial tolerant society not so much. This is what you can achieve when you spend 50 years practicing your craft.
