Soon the IRS will have a new way to put the screws to those it suspects of respecting America’s founding principles:
The IRS official who led the tax-exempt organizations unit when Tea Party groups were targeted is now in charge of the IRS office responsible for ObamaCare, two Capitol Hill sources told Fox News. …
The ObamaCare official in question, Sarah Hall Ingram, had been serving as commissioner of the office responsible for tax-exempt organizations from 2009 to 2012 — the division included the group that targeted Tea Partiers — and has since left to serve as director of the IRS’ Affordable Care Act division. That unit is responsible for enforcing parts of the health care law, including the fines associated with the so-called individual mandate — the requirement to buy health insurance.
The Bureauweenie in Chief has been making some conspicuously phony noises about the IRS scandal:
“Americans are right to be angry about it, and I am angry about it,” Obama said. …
However, the president knocked down the prospect of appointing a special prosecutor to investigate the IRS, saying the congressional investigations and a separate Justice Department probe should be enough to nail down who was responsible for improperly targeting Tea Party groups when they applied for tax-exempt status.
That would be the same Injustice Department that the gunrunning ultra-radical Eric Holder has openly devoted to inflicting social justice on behalf of what he calls “my people.”
Obama is angry, all right: angry that his flying monkeys got caught, and that the press is uncharacteristically doing its job.
This indicates how angry he is at his henchwoman Sarah Hall Ingram:
Sarah Hall Ingram, the IRS executive in charge of the tax exempt division in 2010 when it began targeting conservative Tea Party, evangelical and pro-Israel groups for harassment, got more than $100,000 in bonuses between 2009 and 2012.
It would seem Ms. Ingram has been pleasing her master.
Libs: As vindictive and repressive as they pretend conservatives are.
