I agree. Light the fuse, let the chips fall where they may. Soon the Democrats will be shouting that we need to avoid a constitutional crisis. A constitutional crisis is exactly what this country needs to wake it from its collective stupor.
“The agent in the Cincinnati office, in which the targeting took place, told congressional investigators that he or she was told by a supervisor in March 2010 to search for Tea Party groups applying for tax-exempt status and that Washington, D.C., wanted some cases.
The agent said that by April the office had held up roughly 40 cases and at least seven were sent to Washington. The agent also said a second IRS employee asked for information on two other specific applicants in which Washington was interested.
When asked by congressional investigators about allegations and press reports about two agents in Cincinnati essentially being responsible for the targeting, the agent responded:
It’s impossible. As an agent we are controlled by many, many people. We have to submit many, many reports. So the chance of two agents being rogue and doing things like that could never happen. They were basically throwing us underneath the bus.
The administration has denied involvement in the scandal, repeatedly saying it was limited to the Cincinnati office.
