OPINION IRS crack bites hard VI It seems almost everybody has something bad to say about the pit bullterrier, but U S. Rep. Ron Marlenee, R-Mont., has taken the hype a step too far. While addressing his colleagues in the House, Marlenee compared the headline making pit bull to the people who run the Internal Revenue Service. ‘‘Both are violent, vicious creatures who prey on the unfortunate.” he said. ‘ ‘But in the case of the IRS, the unfortunate are . taxpayers.” Marlenee was making the comparison in an effort to have his colleagues support a taxpayers’ bill of rights, which, in his words, would stop the IRS from its propensity for seizing the property of the poor and helpless. While the measure may have some merit, it is sad that Marlenee has to stoop to superlative comparisons to make his point. The pit bullterrier and the IRS are both infamous for their attacks on humans, but to be coy in the face of such a serious issue only clouds the matter further. Instead of trying to impress the public with As the life expectancy lengthens, his cute comparisons, Marlenee should try to impress the public by working on his legislation. will the presidency be affected?
