Department of Homeland Security Uses IRS to Spy on Citizens Rather Than Keep Terrorists Out of US

Scorpio has a truly disturbing post on the adventures of a friend who got a call from the Department of Homeland [In]Security wanting to know why she had purchased a Cat Stevens cd. Apparently the citizen in question is a Cat Stevens fan and the recent ruckus reminded her to update her cd collection.

Now you may well ask how could the Department of Homeland [In]Security, WHICH IS SO INCOMPETENT THAT IT CAN'T KEEP THE MOST FAMOUS MUSLIM SINGER IN THE WORLD OFF AN AIRPLANE (assuming they had an reason to in the first place), manage to so quickly find and interrogate an American citizen about her exercise of her constitutional rights? Because this citizen has a financial profile (land assets and low income) that puts her on an IRS watchlist. The IRS punked her out to Homeland [In]Security.

George Bush's America: The terrorist roam free and the citizens are screwed.
