Yesterday, Stephanie Cutter, Deputy campaign manager for President Barack Obama’s 2012 reelection campaign, appeared on Jake Tapper’s show The Lead on CNN.
During the segment Stephanie Cutter admitted she had attended meetings with then IRS Chief Douglas Shulman at the White House:
“A couple of facts here that I think are important for us to stick by, number one, the only reason we know about these visits is because the president makes everything public. Number two, what we’re really looking at some of these visits… What we are looking at the number of times that Mr. Shulman was cleared into the White House. It doesn’t necessarily mean he went to a meeting. Number three, many of those meetings were for healthcare implementation. I was in them with him. So there’s nothing nefarious going on.”
Jackpot brother.

Smells like BS. The Washington Compost would already have awarded 1,000 Pinocchios to the GOP if there were only 11 visits.
Just looking for goodies in the tall grass of the tax code.
“I wonder...Schulman would have disputed such an exaggerated count you would think.. “
He couldn’t dispute it. He just got done testifying that they had to lead him to his office every day cause he couldn’t remember how to find it.
Someone correct me, but if the deputy campaign manager is there, the president can’t claim executive privilege. Campaign manager is not a member of the white house staff.
Drag those stooges Lerner & Shulman back up to Capitol Hill and let Gowdy smack them around some more.
This should be the lead on Drudge.
They were all involved in this, but nothing is going to happen because the GOP hasn’t got the stones to do what it takes.
This isn't the Chicago way, it's the Berlin way. These buttheads are following the National Socialist party of Germany's battle plan, circa 1930-1935.. Watch the parallels.
Note the date of Baldwin's column is April 21, 2010, and the organization providing these 40 names has a long history. How are the facts contained in this article relevant to the IRS, Homeland Security, ATF, etc., etc. efforts at intimidation of conservative groups?
Please read and pass on through your own lists.
Drop “political”. Outright warfare.
This has potentially cost lives. For an example close to home here at FR, check this:

This is what 3rd world dictators do to get elected. I’m surprised Obama didn’t get 96% of the vote.
ABSOLUTELY she is the center of this targeting of the TEA party and any other GOP that got in her way. I agree with you. When are others going to start making her accountable and why does she have 24/7 Secret Service protection.
Did SHE or zippy order the wretched Department of Homeland Security to have snipers and armed personnel at the TEA Party IRS protests. Snipers were spotted on roofs near the St. Louis office. This is sick stuff. Talk about intimidation. She said she will get even and get revenge on anyone that didn't agree with them. Isn't that special. Dems think it's great.
In the end, the entire scandal with the IRS points to possibly four persons: President Barack Obama, Senior Advisor to the President Valerie Jarrett, former White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel, and former Secretary of the Treasury Tim Geithner. These four may have conspired to create the plan to use the IRS to harass political opponents, and the plan was implemented under Geithner’s guidance with former IRS Chairman Doug Shulman.
I am not sure this is a big deal. Cutter worked in the White House and has had a bunch of staff jobs.
I am more interested in the flat out lies in her interview. Like saying the kenyan “make everything public”. His personal guests to the White Hut DO NOT go in the WH logbook. What Cutter said is flat not true and she knows that. They tell these lies expecting nobody to call them out on them.
< This isn’t the Chicago way, it’s the Berlin way. These buttheads are following the National Socialist party of Germany’s battle plan, circa 1930-1935.. Watch the parallels. >
It’s only a matter of time before an enterprising journalist lays out all these parallels. If you run across it before i do, I’d appreciate a heads up and I’ll do the same.
There are most definitely a significant number of Democrat / leftist operative plants within the GOP. Don't doubt this for a second. There is a pattern. Oppose major Democrat legislative efforts only when the votes are already there for the Democrats. When needed, ‘cross the aisle’ in an oh so reasonable bipartisan manner. When conservatives / Republicans start getting upset about the lack of faithfulness to conservative principles, act like a true conservative on some issues, just to avoid suspicion. If conservatives can no longer be swayed / fooled, only then is it time to change party.
“They were planning Easter egg hunts, case closed.”
***************************
Yes, it was a planned “hunt”... a hunt for Christians, conservative donors, and of course the Tea Party peeps.
So, the translation of what he said is... I was planning to crucify the Tea Party ....
You got it. However, NOTHING is going to come from such. We have NO justice - We are a banana republic.
Wrong. Trey Gowdy(R-SC) picked up on it big time. Then Issa picked up on what Trey was saying.
Go watch it on youtube. Search Trey Gowdy.
THE BIG QUESTION: What business did his campaign have in the implementation of Obamacare?
