The short answer? The highest-ranking official in the Cincinnati office where, the IRS would have us believe, a few rogue employees initiated a scheme to target conservatives. SNIP
When an application for tax exempt status comes into the IRS, agents have 270 days to work through that application. If the application is not processed within those 270 days it automatically triggers flags in the system. When that happens, individual agents are required to input a status update on that individual case once a month, every month until the case is resolved.
Keep in mind, at least 300 groups were targeted out of Cincinnati alone. Those applications spent anywhere from 18 months to nearly 3 years in the system and some still don't have their non-profit status. 300 groups multiplied by at least 18 months for each group, means thousands of red flags would have been generated in the system.
So who in the chain of command would have received all these flags? The answer, according to the IRS directory, one woman in Cincinnati, Cindy Thomas, the Program Manager of the Tax Exempt Division. Because all six of our IRS workers have different individual and territory managers, Cindy Thomas is one manager they all have common.
SNIP Oh and, Swann adds, Cindy Thomas is the person who just happened to be the person who signed off on the (improper) release of confidential IRS documents to Pro Publica.
Cindy Thomas has not been called before Congress . . . yet. But if she is, let's hope her appearance is handled better than Lois Lerner's was today.

Pic of Cindy Lou Who?
Not yet. Too many in google to isolate her.
But where did the idea come from in the first place?

Unless the folks are questioned, the administration will hide it.
Thanks Jet Jaguar
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Okay so we have at least three that should be prosecuted:
Lois Lerner - Exempt Department Director
Sarah Hall Ingram - Exempt Division Commissioner
Cindy Thomas - Program Manager - Exempt Division.
Add to that members of the Washington technical office and any members of Obama’s cabinet who directed this.
Throw in Obama and Holder for good measure.
