Scapegoat: IRS Commissioner Steven Miller Resigns Amid Targeting Scandal

Late Wednesday President Obama announced the resignation of acting IRS Commissioner Steven Miller in a move many saw as the president taking action to correct mistakes made during the IRS targeting of conservative groups.

In reality, the move was more likely carried out to put forward a scapegoat in the now confirmed criminal targeting of conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status.

Shortly after his resignation  it was revealed that Miller was already planning on resigning as well as actually leaving the IRS altogether within the next few months! That’s right, the man was on his way out and now is the perfect candidate for a scapegoat.

Fox News reported:

After his press conference, Obama announced the appointment of White House budget official Daniel Werfel as the next acting IRS commissioner.

This comes after Obama announced Wednesday that acting IRS Commissioner Steven Miller would resign — though Miller was apparently set to step down anyway.

An official close to Miller told Fox News, shortly after Obama’s brief announcement, that the IRS chief was “set to resign the position of acting commission as of early June.” He was planning to leave the IRS entirely a “couple of months later, regardless of the current controversy,” the source said.

These details were not mentioned by the president as he announced Wednesday evening Miller was resigning. Obama spoke following a meeting with Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew  and other top department officials in which they reviewed a highly critical inspector general’s report on the practice.

The report concluded poor management allowed agents to improperly target Tea Party and other groups for more than 18 months, starting in 2010.

The Inspector Generals report itself may be a cover up when you consider the conclusion that it was simply poor management rather than direct action to target the White Houses political enemies simply doesn’t line up with the evidence.

This scandal, coupled with the Associated Press phone records scandal and Benghazi could easily lead to the impeachment of the president. At the very least, it is time the American people demand the immediate resignation of Attorney General Eric Holder who should then be investigated on multiple criminal charges.
