ANOTHER VIEW Dig through the IRS muck ashington Democrats insist accusations that the IRS targeted conservative non- profits are more about political theater W than government abuse. But those claims look ever more hollow as evi- dence continues to mount that IRS officials not only sought to punish groups opposing President Obama but are engaged in a flagrant cover-up. Americans deserve the truth. The Obama admin- istration could provide it by appointing a special prosecutor to investigate the sleazy affair. But Eric Holder’s Justice Department, you can be sure, won’t initiate such action. So citizens will continue to have to rely on Congressional Republicans to ferret out the facts. What already has been discovered is appalling. Lois Lerner, who headed the IRS division that oversaw tax-exempt status for political groups, took the Fifth Amendment when being questioned by Congress last year on whether the IRS gave tea party and other conservative groups with tax exemp- tions special scrutiny. Last month Congress voted to hold her in contempt. The IRS informed Congress last week that it could Benghazi attack ringleader not find two years of Lerner’s emails. Nor could it produce emails for six other employees involved in the case. Their hard drives, the IRS officials explained, had conveniently crashed.
