That it is the sense of the House of Representatives that unless and until the Internal Revenue Service produces all documentation demanded by subpoena or otherwise by the House of Representatives, or produces an excuse that passes the red face test,
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) must allow taxpayers the same lame excuses for missing documentation that the IRS itself is currently proffering.
RESOLUTION
All taxpayers shall be given the benefit of the doubt when not producing critical documentation, so long as the taxpayer’s excuse therefore falls into one of the following categories:
The dog ate my tax receipts
Convenient, unexplained, miscellaneous computer malfunction
Traded documents for five terrorists
Burned for warmth while lost in the Yukon
Left on table in Hillary’s Book Room
Received water damage in the trunk of Ted Kennedy’s car
Forgot in gun case sold to Mexican drug lords
Forced to recycle by municipal Green Czar
Was short on toilet paper while camping
At this point, what difference does it make?
