Barack Obama makes Richard Nixon look like a saint.
WASHINGTON — A top Internal Revenue Service official knew as early as June 2011 that conservative groups seeking nonprofit status were being singled out for additional scrutiny, raising questions about when senior officials were informed and why the IRS allowed the agency’s commissioner to deny the targeting effort in March 2012 testimony before Congress.
The IRS has said the commissioner was not aware of the targeting at the time, but it has not explained why the testimony was never corrected. Lois Lerner, who heads the IRS division that oversees tax-exempt organizations, told reporters Friday that the agency had targeted conservative groups, but she struggled with questions about when she learned of the effort.
A report from the Treasury Department’s inspector general for tax administration, which is expected to be released this week, concluded Lerner had known about the effort, which she acknowledged Friday was “absolutely inappropriate,” for almost two years.

““absolutely inappropriate,” must be doublespeak for “clearly illegal”.
Absolutely unacceptable…Period.
The difference (other than the number) is the MSM.
