A local Cincinnati TV station has found that as many as four employees of the IRS office there, may have been involved in harassing conservative groups and sending confidential information about them to liberal media outlets across two election cycles.
And though the Obama administration has been trying to paint them as "rogue" workers, the TV station quoted those employees as saying that "they simply did what their bosses ordered".
So, whom should we believe? Some hourly office workers? Or the Obama administration, which has already admitted doing things bad enought to get Richard Nixon impeached?

Prior to his resignation, Steven Miller called the two Cincinnati employees 'rogue' and 'off the reservation,' adding that they were 'overly aggressive' in handling the requests from those conservative groups over the past two years.
Miller also added that those two employees have already been 'disciplined' by the agency.
However, despite the claim of just two employees being involved, FOX19 has exclusively learned from two separate sources that there could be at least four Cincinnati employees involved.
One of FOX19's two sources went on say that these four IRS workers claim "they simply did what their bosses ordered." FOX19 reported on Tuesday that the report by the Office of Inspector General states that senior IRS officials knew agents were targeting Tea Party groups as early as 2011.
While the IRS is pointing at 'two rogue employees,' the number of organizations that were singled out has swelled to nearly 500, according to Rep. Congressmen Darryl Issa and Ohio's Jim Jordan.
