The Internal Revenue Service says it will close all public offices for
five days over the next five months because of automatic spending cuts.The
cuts went into effect when Congress and President Obama couldn't agree on
a budget deal. Taxpayer assistance centers and toll-free phone lines will
be shut down on May 24, June 14, July 5, July 22

promised a whole package of legislation aimed at preventing future mass
killings like the December massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary. But comprehensive
legislation quickly gave way to a resurrection of the old liberal effort
to ban guns.When Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid declared that not viable,
the president fell back to supporting universal background checks. He had
by that point lost the urgency of the Sandy Hook killings since
the measure was unrelated to what happened at the school, as well
as other recent mass shootings.And when that measure looked headed to sure
defeat because of worries about a federal firearms registry, Obama fell
back again and called for passage of a more limited expansion of
