   The problem is that the head of the IRS, whose term ended in November of   
   2012, was a Bush appointee.  It was he, not Obama, who determined IRS   
   policy.   
      
   It was his assistant, the acting commish, an Obama appointee, who   
   revealed this was going on and apologized.   
      
   You've got a scandal, maybe, but you can't point at Obama.  In fact, it   
   kinda makes sense that a Republican IRS commish might have been behind   
   it; mainstream GOP hate the teabaggers a whole lot more than the Dems do.
