Rep. Elijah Cummings has yet to reveal the name of the “conservative Republican” IRS agent he claims started the agency’s improper targeting of conservative groups, despite evidence that the targeting was overseen by a registered Democrat working out of Washington, D.C.

Cummings, a Democrat from Maryland and the top Democrat on the House oversight committee, claimed this week that an unnamed Republican manager in the IRS’s Cincinnati office started the agency’s targeting of conservative groups, and that “the case is solved” with no evidence of White House wrongdoing.

Cummings claimed in a letter to Republican Oversight Committee chairman Darrell Issa, dated June 9, that his staff had interviewed a “conservative Republican” manager from the IRS’ Cincinnati office who took the blame for the improper targeting.

A “conservative republican” IRS manager ought to be very easy to locate even without the city being named.

Just another attempt at distraction. Since he is claiming that it was a conservative Republican, you can bet your last dollar it was a liberal Democrat.

I'm sure this self described conservative Republican who is so eager to shoulder all the blame for the IRS abuses of power is going to be equally eager to spend thirty years of hard time in the Federal Penitentiary.

Right

I don’t care if it’s a republican, democrat, independent or Peter Pan.

If they did it they should go to jail at the very least. I’d prefer hanging the bastards but that’s just me.

Hmmmm.....sounds very similar to the claim by Rep Cleaver that he was spat upon by Tea Party protesters. That *evidence* never did surface.
