No, Carter Hull who worked just below Lerner (and is due to retire) is singing like a bird...
72... and you know what they say about picking a fight with an old man... he’ll just kill you.
Sing it, Mr. Hull!
IRS attorney Carter Hull has told congressional investigators that the Agency’s chief counsel’s office had asked to review the applications of tea party and conservative organization targeted for heightened scrutiny. William Walkins, chief counsel of the IRS, is a political appointee of President Obama. Hull’s testimony provides the closest link between the IRS scandal and the White House.
Hull also stated that the chief counsel’s office suggested developing a “template” letter asking targeted groups about their activities. Creating a “template” letter suggests that the counsel’s office viewed the targeted organizations as components of a unified effort.
My reviewer and I both said a template makes absolutely no difference because these organizations, all of them are different, Hull told congressional investigators. A template would not work.
