Last night, Barack Obama tried to take control of the narrative on one of the scandals that have rocked his administration by announcing that IRS Commissioner Steve Miller had resigned by request of Treasury Secretary Jack Lew. As it turns out, Miller was leaving in a month anyway, but the outgoing IRS chief took the time to note that the wrongdoing was limited to two IRS employees in the Cincinnati office, who had already been “disciplined” — which directly contradicts the Inspector General’s report, which shows managerial involvement since March 2010 at least, and coordination between multiple offices and units. The report also notes that at least 300 applications got improperly obstructed, and the number is likely much higher than that.
Fox 19 in Cincinnati reports that the number doubled yesterday evening to four IRS employees, and that they’re not terribly interested in martyrdom (via Twitchy):

FOX19 has exclusively learned that as many as four people may be the first Cincinnati Internal Revenue Service (IRS) employees to face disciplinary action, and possibly even criminal charges, for allegedly targeting Tea Party and Liberty groups applying for non-profit status.
On Wednesday, the IRS announced that it had pinpointed two employees at the agency’s Cincinnati office for being ‘primarily’ responsible. …

This IRS bullying attack on conservative organizations is the bitter Ubama's response to 'Citizens United'. He never got over that Supreme Court ruling and so the sneaky bastard decided to fight back using the IRS. This scandal doesn't go to "higher levels of management" - - this scandal goes straight to the African communist scumbag himself.
Once Geitner discovered this he failed to counsel the subordinate levels in Treasury department that it was wrong.
Bet he and Obamugabe had a big laugh over it. Bet they also considered it a gift horse ~ not realizing that the people being delayed and messed with talk to each other!
Now they pay.
They will have their chance to testify under oath......... before they all go to jail.
All of these employees should issue this public statement “I am not suicidal. I would never kill myself, ever. If I turn up dead soon, the government did it. If I turn up dead soon, investigate the government.”
[[What will Miller resigning actually accomplish?]]
Dear leaqder now gets to say “I was outraged and I made heads roll because i’m looking out fopr you America”- That’s what it iwll accomplish- Dear leader is off the hook now-
perhaps he should be threatened/blackmailed with a tax audit until he cofnesses that the orders came from dear leader
The reason dear leader wanted to use the IRS to ‘enforce’ the health care is becasue the IRS had the power to bully intimidate and blackmail peopel by threatenign tax audits IF the peopel were conservatives
Yep- the thugs i nthe IRS were to be the right arm of the thugs in Washington

We'll see.
The low level staffers are going to be GS-13 to GS-15 ~ pretty close to USPS folks doing the same stuff.
Now that we know who she is she will be made to squeal, and as a career employee ~ probably well short of a retirement date, she's going to squeal all over the place.
Her subordinates aren't taking the rap for her!
Sorry, Sarah has no ethical standards ~ so now she will talk ~
BTW, this woman has no picture on the internet! BTW, I don't either.
In some jobs you make real enemies so no pics ~
That's all over for Sarah now...
That's another scandal or two.
What's not to like ~ ObamaKKKare down the tubes; IRS derailed from denying Conservative groups appropriate nonprofit approval; Gays demonstrated to be not only sexually amoral but untrustworthy in every aspect of life;...... (More tomorrow I am sure)
“Sarah Hall Ingram ~ she was in charge. That’s the top of the heap for a Super Grade, or maybe she’s an appointee as a Deputy Commissioner! The low level staffers are going to be GS-13 to GS-15 ~ pretty close to USPS folks doing the same stuff. Now that we know who she is she will be made to squeal, and as a career employee ~ probably well short of a retirement date, she’s going to squeal all over the place.”
Foxnews is reporting that the very same Ms. Hall is being made the head of the Affordable Care Act Division which has oversight of the implementation of fines for not purchasing health insurance. she is being bought off, so no squealing from Ms. Hall. BUT the public should begin squealing like a stuck pig for what this will mean for them when Obamacare is fully implemented.
Like the one in Benghazi?
Either that or choir boys.
Ve vas chust following ze oahr-duhs.
no, that was her payoff for doing it ~ that’s not a payoff to keep her quiet. They never imagined this would blow up. it’s foolproof. they have excuses that are reasonable ~ to them, BTW, not to me.
