Here was what I said Crockett. Not sure how you take that as "attacking the messenger". I said exactly what is the truth. It was an OPINION piece.

It's not in any way "news". It's just an opinion. No different that if you listen to Sean Hannity on the right.
Just more nonsense by the 2 party system to stir up people with "team sports" mentality to their politics.

By the way, if you read the report it DOES show that some of the people in the IRS were indeed lying their asses off (Lois Lerner).
And further...I don't really consider the Congress keeping an eye on the IRS as "wasteful". It's actually part of what they are supposed to do (oversight).
What I considered wasteful by Congress was when they drag people like Martha Stewart in front of them and throw her in jail. Or when the do months long "investigations" of steroids in baseball.
Those are things that Congress has no business doing.
But back to this topic: Crockett, that is an opinion piece in the editorial section of the LA Times.
I'm glad Congress is keeping an eye on the IRS.
I wish that the Democrats in Congress had done the same thing with Bush over the Patriot Act and the wars he got us into. But they didn't have the balls.
