"Tax Day - A Government Perpetrated Colonoscopy!"

Roni: It was our conversation this morning that initiated this article. Your husband's
colonoscopy and April 15th. I thank you for triggering the idea. Ron

What's the difference between an IRS audit and a Colonoscopy? Nothing! You are getting reamed in either case.

If you have neither experienced an IRS audit, or a colonoscopy, your path through American life is incomplete. This author has experienced both. In the case of the former, it cost our company $15,000 and the rationale for the charge was shaky at best. And the devious methods the two little beady-eyed agents used to extract the $15,000, had all the earmarks of the German Gestapo. When we approached an attorney to protest the charge, we were told that it would cost way more than $15,000 to take the IRS to court and we could very easily lose. Discretion being the better part of valor, we paid the charge under protest. A lot of good that did!

Experiencing the colonoscopy was equally painful. The doctor couldn't see enough with his 5-inch diameter scope, so he ordered a barium enema. it was a toss up as to which was more painful, or more humiliating .... the colonoscopy or the enema. In the former you had visions of the doctor jerking and pulling out the 20-foot long tube in one fell sw-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-sh, taking part of your insides with it. Ouch, that smarts! The image was too horrid to contemplate. In the latter you weren't sure you could make it to the bathroom before your insides burst wide open, as a nurse held a little rag under your behind (just in case) on your extended run down the hall to the "john".

Which brings us to the reason for this unnecessarily humbling experience, that is April 15th each year. Many wonder, how is it possible that we could go from a short clause in the U. S. Constitution about taxes, to a tax code that is purported to be 16,485 pages long. Billions of man-hours are spent by Americans trying to figure out there taxes within hundreds of thousands of the regulations contained in those 16,000 pages. Billions of dollars are spent each year by both individuals and business entities who use tax preparers, accountants, CPA's and attorneys to determine how much they owe Uncle Sam. This doesn't include the billions of dollars that are spent each year by the IRS, to collect those taxes.

It has been stated that if you called 50 IRS offices, or 50 accountants with a single question about your taxes, you would get 50 different answers. That is not only ludicrous, it is an unprecedented injustice and totally un-American. Why we put up with it can only be described in a few words, "cowardice", or perhaps "insanity", or maybe even genetic mutations, be it we the people, or government employees.

There is an unshakable axiom. If the government, politicians and bureaucrats alike, get a hold of anything, they will complicate it until no one understands it, including the government idiots that wrote it and the politicians who never read it, but passed it into law anyway. It will then take a million, high-paid attorneys to make sense out of it, or use the code to "snow" the average citizen, or even the politician who created the law in the first place. That leads to another axiom. If the government gets a hold of almost anything, they will invariably screw it up and boy have they screwed it up.

If you have already, or while you are figuring out your taxes for this year, remember that what you have done, or are doing, is capitulating to the illegal authority of a government who forced the IRS and the insane IRS tax code on you and it is anything but life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. It is self flagellation of the highest order and you have allowed your government to do it to you. So you only have yourself to blame.

Today is April 15th, 2009, tax day for this year. If you are not angry with all that has been happening right before your very eyes, you are blind, if not brain dead, or worse, you are a ward of the government and don't care. So we encourage all freedom-loving Americans to get on the Internet right now and go to http://www.taxdayteaparty.com, locate a tea party in your area and then attend that tea party. Join the millions of Americans that have had it with Obama, Pelosi, Reid, Frank, Schumer, Dodd, Bernake, Geitner, Clinton, Bush, Donkeys, Elephants, tax codes, bailouts, socialism, radical environmentalism and the one-world-order, that threaten American freedom, liberty and sovereignty, not to mention the pursuit of your happiness.

Join the thousands of Americans, urban and rural, who call themselves a member of the great Silent American Majority and request your Silent Majority badge today at http://www.narlo.org/tsm.html. Wear it to meetings, government or privately sponsored, or wherever proud Americans gather in the defense of freedom. And no matter what anyone tells you, "extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice." Barry Goldwater

And one more thing. Above all, don't believe one damn word your government, a politician, bureaucrat or the news media tells you. They consistently lie for their own gain or a hidden agenda, or to hide their mistakes, of which they make way too many.
