IRS Agent Describes Effort To Blame Cincinnati Office as a 'Nuclear Strike On Us'

Not willing to be thrown under the bus

An IRS agent in the embattled Cincinnati office is lashing out at the agency's managers for pinning the blame on them for the targeting of conservative groups, describing one official's attempt to pass the blame as a "nuclear strike on us." 

According to transcripts of interviews that House investigators conducted with two Cincinnati office employees and which Fox News reviewed, agent Elizabeth Hofacre claimed that the idea this program was the work of two rogue agents is "absurd."

The entire IRS management team from the top down should be relived of duty and tried for malfeasance of office.

If Obama ordered their shenanigans he should be pitched out on his (extraordinary) ears for being a crook.

If Obama isn't know what was going on he should be pitched out on his (extraordinary) ears for being ostentatiously incompetent.

Obama will assure us that he is NOT a crook!
