IRS Chief Counsel William Wilkins, One of Only Two Politically-Appointed IRS Officials, Visited the White House for Seven Hours Before Changing the Criteria for Targeting Tea Party Organizations Two Days LaterAnd the day after that, the criteria for targeting Tea Party groups changed. The Obama appointee implicated in congressional testimony in the IRS targeting scandal met with President Obama in the White House two days before offering his colleagues a new set of advice on how to scrutinize tea party and conservative groups applying for tax-exempt status. The Blaze adds a cautionary note: White House visitor logs are not reliable guides to who actually showed up at the White House. They're for Secret Service purposes as far as clearing people to visit; some people are cleared and never show up. Others actually show up but never appear on the logs, as personal visits are apparently recorded in a separate system. Still, this merits some questions, and it merits a response. Which the White House has refused to give -- it refused to give comment upon the matter when contacted about it by the Daily Caller. Dick Morris and his partner has a column on William Wilkins-- asking if he's the G. Gordon Liddy of the IRS scandal. Wilkins claims to know nothing about the Tea Party targeting -- but that is a lie, according to Carter Hull. Carter Hull, recently retired after 48 years of service at the IRS, was the tax analyst in D.C. in charge of the Tea Party applications. Hull indicated that he was told by the top assistant to Lois Lerner (remember her? In May, she refused to testify and invoked her Fifth Amendment right to remain silent) that Wilkins's office had to review all of the tax-exemption applications from Tea Party groups that Hull was overseeing. In addition, lawyers from Wilkins' offices met with Lerner to discuss the targeting. Former IRS lawyer Carter Hull told the House Oversight Committee on Thursday that Lerner attended an August 2011 meeting where she, Hull, and lawyers from the agency’s chief counsel’s office, among others, discussed the test cases. Interestingly, the meeting between Obama and Wlikins occurred (per the logs) in the Rooselvelt Room. According to Dick Morris, during the Clinton years, the Roosevelt Room was one of a small number of rooms designated as permitted for political, rather than non-political, use. He says he doesn't know if the Roosevelt Room's traditional role as a place for politicking has continued. | Recent Comments
