Stewart Enjoys The Delicious Irony Of The IRS Under Scrutiny: ‘Where’s Your Receipts, A*sholes?’

To kick off his final week before leaving The Daily Show for the summer, Jon Stewart had another go at the IRS for the ongoing scandal over the targeting of tea party groups. Stewart expressed mock sympathy for the IRS and indulged in a little schadenfraude, asking “Where’s your receipts, assholes?” Stewart wryly remarked, “Sucks to get audited, doesn’t it?” and proceeded to mock-audit the IRS for its own ridiculous expenses.

p.s. Former IRS commissioner Douglas Shulman was NOT at the White House over 150 times.
That is a right-wing talking point that has been taken out of context.
The White House had cleared him to attend meetings, but he did not show up that many times.
I saw an article somewhere yesterday and I think it said that he went to the WH under a dozen (?) time, something like that.
