4. This is the same bill with the provision for peeking at taxpayers' returns
It all adds up now. Republicans can sneak a peek at any American's tax return, they notify the debt collection service of any discrepancy, the collection service goes after the person, armed with their tax return info.

Wait and see, wait and see. This is a psychological bomb getting ready to go off in the public. How would you like some person you don't even know, examining your tax returns and thinking they find something there worth going after, and then harassing you for the money because they get a commission?

This is really, really bad. It's up to bush to veto that provision, right? He won't do it.

We need to find out if Diversified is connected with the Senator from Oklahoma who says his staff was responsible for introducing that clause to examine American taxpayer returns.

Remember, it's only the Repubs who have the authority to look. Not the Dems. This is incredibly ugly.
