Full Title - "Carney: White House notified of IRS targeting tea party ‘several weeks ago;’ Obama: I found out Friday [VIDEO]"
White House press secretary Jay Carney said in a press conference Tuesday that the White House was notified about the IRS targeting tea party groups “several weeks ago.” This comes a day after President Obama said he found out about it from news reports on Friday of last week.
During a press conference with British Prime Minister David Cameron on Monday, President Obama was asked about the IRS scandal. He responded, ”I first learned about it from the same news reports that I think most people learned about this. I think it was on Friday.”
However, Carney said Tuesday that first a report had to be compiled by the IRS’s inspector general and then when it was completed, it was passed on to the administration.
“A notification is appropriate and routine and that is what happened and that happened several weeks ago,” Carney said.
Carney said the White House will not make a formal statement until a complete IG report is released.
Carney said later in the press conference that although the White House was notified “weeks ago” about the IRS investigaton, neither he nor the president were notified individually.
Shit fire boys... get your story straight already.
The dipshit masquerading as POTUS only came in off the golf course last Friday.
I suspect Juan Williams’s defense of Obama et al at this point is at least partially on account of his knowing that Fox will have no use for him if he criticizes Obama. Fox needs somebody they can point to as reliably liberal and they need somebody to say stupid things to get their other guests and hosts all riled up.
The WH was notified. I’m guessing they mean the stone walls and grass lawn and flower garden. But none of the people who work there. So, what is the teleprompter’s opinion?
“A FReeper noted earlier that Obama appears to only have control of one part of government... Seal Team 6. That’s how he got Bin Laden. He knows nothing about anything else.”
And he got 17 SEALS killed in the process.
Every day Obama validates his nickname, President FULL OF S**T
I know I predicted a slippery escape and abandonment by the media, but I didn’t know it would quite so soon...
The good news is unemployment should fall with all the INVESTIGATORS we will be hiring
I wonder how much longer Carney will last. He looks like he’s about to have a nervous breakdown everytime he has to get out there and lie on BO’s orders.
So who exactly is “the White House”? If the “White House” is notified, is it Valerie Jarrett who then decides that BO can’t handle it and doesn’t tell him anything. What must be wrong with BO if he can’t handle any news that makes him look like the incompetent boob that he is? Who is the White House these days if it’s not BO?
Hmm...yeah, it’s almost as if there were a cancer on the Presidency or something. BTT
Maybe no one tells the idiot child anything.
The Ap scandle hit the press hard I think...close to home.
People shouldn’t have to be lawyers nor spend hours parsing syntax for the truth. To begin to regain confidence in our so called leaders they need to cut this legalese crap out and start talking the truth in a language even the RAT constituency can understand.
I know, we will never get that ever!
Art’s son?
Now that the press isn’t totally kissing dem butt, Obama and his crew are going to have to keep their lies straight. Reporters might not be as willing to look the other way for every new lie.
LOL
