Former Internal Revenue Service Commissioner Douglas Shulman is under fire from Congress for his agency's targeting of Tea Party and other conservative organizations. Shulman himself is under suspicion for his numerous visits to the White House compared to other administration officials. Additionally, Shulman's wife Susan L. Anderson reportedly works for the Washington D.C. based liberal organization Public Campaign.
In fact, according to Anderson's Twitter feed, she worked on the Obama campaign:
En route to airport after working 3 days 4 OFA, MiL just asks me If I know abt the Chrysler ads :) #Obama2012
Anderson tweeted about spending time with union members during the campaign.
After spending the day in East Dayton w/union folks working 4 Obama, this America's Future GM retirees' ad rings rather false. #Obama2012
The wife of the then Commissioner of the IRS also tweeted about Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney's taxes:
Ha! "@IvanTheK: If Romney loses the election, I bet he can file an amended return and claim the deductions he didn't claim.”
Reid calls on Romney to reveal his taxes - “@TPM: Romney calls on Reid to reveal his source: http://tpm.ly/QBWise ”
Romney in class by himself - see @SunFoundation charts comparing Romney's tax returns to other presidents. http://bit.ly/LQegqf ”
Folks go to Caymans to dodge taxes or dive reefs - wanna bet what Mitt was doing there? http://tinyurl.com/7zhlvtp
In this tweet she makes an innocuous reference to her husband, Douglas Shulman.
I have no idea what my husband is saying but all these tax + finance reporters are nodding their heads. #taxday
Anderson took part in a protests as well, according to her Twitter feed. She called on her Twitter followers to protest Karl Rove and his American Cross Roads group as well as a Republican fundraiser in Wisconsin.

re: “Wife of Former IRS Chief Campaigned for Obama, Questioned Romney’s Taxes”
You know, this isn’t nepotism, but pretty darn close and it stinks to high Heaven.
No political targeting involved? Collusion of the media, arms of the executive branch and left-wing orgs with the Obama re-elect campaign being blown wide open.

Doesn’t matter to Obamabots. He’s a Bush appointee, therefore it’s not Obama’s fault. That’s as far as they’re capable of thinking.
He would be a philosophic martyr for the cause. Celebrated for as long as the left exists.
See ‘Chi T-shirt’ for details.
I'm using that instead of "bttt" or "bump" for these issues.

A Republican representative investigating the Internal Revenue Service’s scrutiny of conservative groups released a transcript Sunday of an IRS employee interview that he says links the tax agency’s actions to orders from Washington.Darrell Issa, head of a House of Representatives committee looking into the IRS scandal, told CNN there was an indication IRS employees in an Ohio field office were being “directly ordered” from Washington.
This thing is has yet to blow wide open...
‘Cincinnati IRS employee: Washington was ‘basically throwing us underneath the bus’
...The employee further noted that Washington, D.C. had additionally requested the applications or parts of the applications for two specific groups.
Investigator: “But just to be clear, she told you the specific names of these applicants.”
IRS employee: “Yes.”
Investigator: “And she told you that Washington, D.C. had requested these two specific applications be sent to D.C.”
IRS employee: “Yes, or parts of them.”
According to the partial transcript, the employee noted that this was an unusual request.
You do realize that GW Bush appointed her husband as head of the IRS? I don’t know if there are any remaining Bushbots on this site, but I’d like to know just why no one else was avaiable in the Republican Party or even an Independent for the IRS Commissioner’s job.
