Re: IRS higher-ups requested info on conservative groups, letters show
Then we were talking past each other. I thought you were saying that she was suspended because she was involved in "targeting" tea party groups. Instead she was suspended for failing to disclose this mess during a Senate investigation about why the IRS failed to properly enforce 501c4 status.
That seems to support what I said earlier. They are not asking that she be suspended for the manner in which the 501(c)(4) statute was being enforced. They asked that she be suspended because Lerner failed to disclose that the IRS was inappropriately targeting conservative groups when it came up in the course of asking about the processing of 501(c)(4) applications.
