New Emails Establish IRS Targeting Was Directed Out of IRS' DC Headquarters
I Really Think They Ought To Make A Statue of This Photo
From Ace of Spades:
The Internal Revenue Service managed a wide-ranging program that singled out tea party groups for special scrutiny from its headquarters in Washington, D.C., according to bombshell documents released Wednesday by a watchdog organization.
Judicial Watch, a center-right group that specializes in Freedom Of Information Act document requests and lawsuits, said it received a cache of papers from the IRS showing the depth of the Obama administration's involvement in what officials have previously called the work of a few 'rogue agents' in Cincinnati, Ohio.
And letters from U.S. Sen. Carl Levin, a Michigan Democrat, show his involvement in pressing the IRS to target mostly conservative organizations with cumbersome questionnaires seemingly calculated to slow down their applications for tax-exempt status in the middle of an election year.
In one July 2010 email among IRS managers, a lawyer with the Exempt Organizations Technical unit in Washington wrote that his office was 'working the Tea party applications in coordination with Cincy.'
So, it seems Carl Levin directed the IRS, and the IRS complied.
But of course, there is also the sticky point that THE GUY LEVIN WROTE TO, IRS DIRECTOR DOUGLAS SHULMAN, ALSO HAD OVER 100 MEETINGS WITH OBAMA DURING THIS SAME PERIOD OF TIME.
No other IRS Director has ever met with the President this many times.
GO READ THE WHOLE THING.
