The Rabbi looks like the hero making the idiot IRS look like a mean-spirited fool. The IRS is the butt of the joke. Wouldn't be suprised if a Jew made it up actually.
Besides, Jews aren't the only males circumcised. I'm circumcised. Subsitute "Rabbi" for "Matron" and put the setting as a hospital instead of a Synagogue, and the joke still stands.
In any case, I could be wrong, but aren't religious institutions exempt from tax? My Dad (an Anglican Priest) paid taxes, but his church didn't.
