the flurry of indignation over the irs has been compounded by newly released videos of irs government workers line dancing at a funded video. the tax agency is accused of spending $49 million on 220 conferences held between 2010 and 2012. that video as well as another showing employees dressed up as star trek characters, have helped to drive the narrative that is by now the panel can t even keep their faces straight, very familiar in republican circles government excess. wow, government under barack obama has gotten so big that its main defense is look, i don t know anything about any of these scandals, because everything underneath me is so big and unyieldy that i can t possibly know about it. that s a world and that s an america that our founding fathers didn t fight for. raince priebus would be wise to keep the focus on other
