Why on earth would the IRS care whether you buried the donor list deep in an abandoned salt mine guarded by hundreds of vicious Rottweilers or posted it with daily revisions on your web-site?

That's funny, I thought it was more a case of him forcing everyone to do the right thing, but then I don't seem to have the advantage that you do of reading his mind.


One cannot force everyone to do the right thing, and trying to do so is inherently a bad thing. So either way, it appears Obama wants to do the wrong thing. Not exactly a persuasive argument to vote for him.
Your reality, sir, is lies and balderdash and I'm delighted to say that I have no grasp of it whatsoever.
