The problem is not just IRS lawyers – the problem is all federal government lawyers. “…The IRS is near the top in terms of partisanship, but does not stand out as being markedly different from the other agencies. Some agencies, such as the Department of Education and the NLRB, did not have a single lawyer who contributed to Mitt Romney, even though dozens contributed to Barack Obama.” The notion of a non-partisan civil service system is another myth shot to hell. Time to bring back the old patronage system – at least you can get some non-Democrats in there occasionally.
