WASHINGTON � White House senior adviser Dan Pfeiffer told "Fox News
Sunday" that President Obama learned about the Internal Revenue Service
targeting Tea Party groups applying for tax-exempt status only after it
had come out in the media but that the administration would make sure �it
never happens again.�

Pfeiffer defended Obama�s statement that he didn�t know anything about the
incidents or the investigation until he heard about them in the press.

�No president would get involved in an independent IRS investigation,�
Pfeiffer said. �It would be wholly inappropriate.�

Wallace asked if Sarah Ingram, the IRS commissioner who once oversaw the
division that processes tax-exempt applications and now tapped to oversee
the new tax laws in ObamaCare, would be pulled from the spot given the
recent scandal. It is not clear when Ingram stopped being the head of the
tax-exempt office or how active her role was there while she was
implementing ObamaCare.

�There will be a 30-day review and everybody who did anything wrong will
be held accountable,� Pfeiffer said, adding that Ingram was never named in
the inspector general�s report on the scandal.

Joseph Grant, the official who succeeded Ingram, announced Thursday he
would be retiring after being on the job for a week.

The IRS actions and allegations have brought anger from both parties, with
Obama calling it �outrageous� and promising change.

Pfeiffer, who made the full round of Sunday talk shows, continued the
calls for change in an effort to calm growing frustrations over a series
of scandals that have rocked the White House this week, including claims
of political intimidation, stepping on the constitutional rights of the
media and backpedaling on what the administration knew about the Sept. 11,
2012, terrorist attacks in Benghazi, Libya.

Democrats have long said the GOP is trying to keep the Benghazi attacks in
the spotlight to discredit former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton�s
possible 2016 presidential bid.

Last week, more than100 pages of government emails and notes in the
Benghazi investigation were released.

The documents show that State Department officials repeatedly objected to
and tried to scale back references of involvement by Islamic extremist
groups and prior security warnings in the administration�s initial
internal narrative of the Sept. 11, 2012, attacks that killed a U.S.
ambassador and three other Americans.

Pfeiffer told Wallace the emails were doctored and given out to the press.
He added that the talking point references were changed by the CIA and not
the White House and said Republicans should be more focused on trying to
find the culprit than blaming Obama.

Barack Obama, reelected by the dumbest voters in the history of the United
States of America.

Eric Holder, racist black murdering United States Attorney General, still
has his job.

Nancy Pelosi, Democrat criminal, accessory before and after the fact to
improper vetting of Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama, a confirmed
felon using SSAN 042-68-4425, belonging to a dead man.

Obama ignored the brutal killing of an American diplomat in Benghazi, then
relieved American military officers who attempted to prevent said murder
in order to cover up his own ineptness.

Obama continues his goal of disarming America while ObamaCare increases
insurance premiums 200% and leaves millions without health care.

Obama helped bankrupt Illinois. Democrat run Chicago closes 54 public
schools.
