IRS: Why Obama Should Read the Papers

Last summer, CFJ president Curt Levey wrote about the IRS’s targeting of Tea Party groups – and, more generally, about the Nixonian attempts by the Obama Administration and its allies to silence conservative critics – after Senate GOP Leader Mitch McConnell spoke out about the problem. In an op-ed this week at Breitbart.com, Levey looks back at last summer’s articles and his interview with Sen. McConnell as a reminder that the IRS scandal and related wrongdoing could not have come as a surprise to anyone inside or outside the White House who was following the news.
