It was an “audit,” as you properly noted above. There is a apparently a difference, and I’ve read dozens of IG reports. This was a very superficial inquiry to determine whether the program was functioning without any major dysfunction or problems. It was not designed to turn up wrongdoing. An investigation would be designed to do that.

The whole thing was superficial and shallow.

I get Carney dissembling and obfuscating for the Democrats. He is a paid shill and will probably get a sweet book deal in the end. What do the rest of these hacks get for shredding their integrity? View point discrimination by the IRS should horrify any citizen and only the hackiest of hack “journalists” would try to minimize the story because their side was not discriminated against. Politicizing the IRS is even worse than most government scandals because because so much of our tax system works because of voluntary compliance but that is still not a story for our hack journalists. I’m not going to miss it when the last newspaper closes.
