Fifth Washington-Based IRS Worker Goes

[NATIONALREVIEW] The Internal Revenue Service has replaced the agency's director of Rulings and Agreements, Holly Paz, who served in that position while her division singled out conesrvative groups for inappropriate scrutiny.

In an internal memo, according to an IRS source, the agency named a new official, Karen Schiller, to the position. Cincinnati's Fox19 confirms that report.

According to the House Oversight Committee, Paz was involved in an internal IRS investigation that in May 2012 concluded that the agency had been discriminating against conservative groups. That was a year before a Treasury Department inspector General's report reached the same conclusion, but Paz and others at the IRS failed to inform Congress of the findings of the internal investigation. During the inspector general's own investigation, Paz, who National Review Online revealed is a donor to Barack Obama
We're gonna punish our enemies and we're gonna reward our friends who stand with us on issues that are important to us...
, sat in on the vast majority of the interviews conducted by the inspector general's team. House Oversight Committee chairman Darrell Issa harshly criticized inspector general J. Russell for allowing that, saying it was "inappropriate" to include anybody in the agency in the interviews who could have participated in the targeting of conservative groups.

#5 Less than a week after the release of NSA collection efforts, the Obama administration is already pressing an indictment against the leaker. Over a year since IRS personnel leaked information to political groups and not even a grand jury in empaneled. Some animals are more equal than others.

#6 "Going" in Washington-speak tends to not mean firing but reassignment or promotion and reward.
