DANIEL HALPER<\/strong> \u201cIf I could then go back to the IRS issue,\u201d said a reporter from the AP. \u201cThe president did use the word \u2018if these activities had taken place,\u2019 but there has been an acknowledgement on the part of the IRS leadership that these things did indeed occur. I wondered why the president used that phrasing in claiming that it was outrageous?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThose from the IRS that have spoken about this obviously have much greater insight into what took place than we do. We have not seen the report. We have not independently collected information about what transpired. We need the independent inspector general\u2019s report to be released before we can make judgments. One person\u2019s view of what actions were taken or what that individual did is not enough for us to say something concretely happened that was innapropriate,\u201d said Carney.<\/p>\n <!– <\/p>\n –><\/p>\n This article was posted: Wednesday, May 15, 2013 at 10:03 am<\/p>\n Tags: domestic news<\/a>, government corruption<\/a><\/p>\n
