Top aide to former IRS chief reportedly logged hundreds of White House visits
Fox ^ | 6/21/13 | Fox

Not only did the former IRS commissioner visit the White House dozens of times during his tenure, but his chief of staff was reportedly making those visits even more frequently.

The Washington Examiner reported Friday that Jonathan M. Davis, the chief of staff for former IRS Commissioner Douglas Shulman, appears to have visited the White House campus up to 310 times between late 2009 and early 2013. Sources told the Examiner that Davis, who had little background in tax policy, largely served as a political aide.

It's unclear what he was doing at the White House all those times. Shulman, during a hearing on Capitol Hill last month, tried to explain his own frequent attendance at White House meetings. He said he was there for everything from policy meetings to "the Easter Egg roll with my kids."

But the sheer number of visits for Shulman -- and now his aide -- raises questions amid the fallout over the agency's practice of singling out conservative groups for additional scrutiny.

Compare this to the number of IRS visits to the White House during the “dreaded” Bush administration.

We have truly become a communist nation. The Party always has a political officer that spies/oversees on each government agency. If actions are not consistent with Party dictates, the government worker is punished in some way. Law be damned.

Good grief. I haven’t heard anything about whatever investigations or hearings were supposedly being held, so I hope this whole issue hasn’t simply disappeared.

People may be freaked out about the NSA, but that’s just an information gathering tool. What they need to be freaked out about is the agencies and individuals who use that information, particularly in the case of the IRS. Not only is the power to tax the power to destroy, but the power to run “Healthcare” (LOL!) is the power to kill individual citizens.

We should be seriously, seriously afraid of this.

Definitely. Once we retrieve control of the organs we’ll need to review all the promotions this guy and his cronies handed out and RESCIND THEM. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth at IRS over this ~ for a long time!

I'm sure Johathan Davis's contempt for conservative Americans will rival that of Shulman... and it's a tip-off as to who Obama really is...

If you want to know how the 'top' guy in any organization really feels - look at his close lieutenants... they'll reflect the truth - even if the top guy is 'too smooth' to let on...

from lib website slamming Monica Crowley:

"Data.gov shows that over 200 of Davis's visits were to HHS official Liz Fowler (12 visits), White House adviser on health care Ezekiel Emanuel (21 visits), and Deputy Director of the White House Office of Health Reform Jeanne Lambrew (198 visits), who were coordinating with the IRS on implementation of the health care law."

When you conspire illegal actions, the conspirators use face to face meetings. They did not want a paper or electronic trail.

This administration is not only criminal and corrupt, its true motive is Marxism. They are the enemy of Freedom!
