Maybe This Man Needs an Audit

<p>By DAVID ELLIS/Reported by David E. Thigpen

<p> IRS Commissioner Fred Goldberg is feeling some heat. A
report by the House Government Operations Committee blasts the
IRS for high-level misconduct and cover-ups. "Crooks auditing
crooks," charges committee chairman John Conyers Jr. of
Michigan. Even worse, a second report by a Goldberg-picked
panel of outside experts concludes that the commissioner's
solutions to the crisis are "narrow" and deal mostly with
"symptoms rather than root causes." Specifically, the panel
found that many IRS criminal-investigation agents are not
supervised, nor are they adequately trained in ethics. The
report was sent to Goldberg on Oct. 26, but it has not been
released to Congress or the public. "I don't know why it's
taking him so long," says a panel member. "We assumed he would
release it within days."
