I used to hear Democrats demanding Bush and others be "frog-walked" out of the White House...
..I ponder what their saying now...?
William Wilkins, IRS Chief Counsel appointed by who.. you guessed it, Obama....the plot thickens..a what?

<<<Obama/W.H. & Chief Counsel (9) or more times!!!..mmm records kinda missing
The applications of some tea-party groups for tax exemption are still languishing at the Internal Revenue Service, where they have been reviewed by the chief counsels office and by a senior adviser to Lois Lerner, the agencys former director of Exempt Organizations, according to the testimony of three Internal Revenue Services attorneys involved in their processing. The IRSs chief counsel, William Wilkins, is one of two political appointees at the agency. His office demanded information about the political activity of tea-party groups right before the [2010] election period, and to this day has yet to make a determination whether the groups qualify for tax exemption, according to one IRS attorney.
The explosive testimony comes from Carter Hull, a recently retired IRS attorney who was charged with providing guidance to the Cincinnati agent processing tea-party applications; his superviser, Ronald Shoemaker; and Michael Seto, the manager of the Exempt Organizations Technical unit made up of tax lawyers and based in Washington, D.C.
Hull began reviewing tea-party applications in April 2010. According to a partial transcript of his interview with Oversight Committee investigators, he felt he had enough information to make a determination on the applications, but sometime in the winter of 20102011, the senior advisor to Lois Lerner told him the IRS chief counsels office needed to review the applications nonetheless. These were test applications whose treatment would provide guidance for agents processing the bulk of the tea-party applications.
