but from the e-mails we ve gotten and it s considerable. we don t have everything. we ve interviewed 39 witnesses. almost every one of them pointed at her. this wasn t something republicans alone initiated in 2010, 11, and even 12, there were both republicans and democrats who notified irs that they had been contacted by conservative groups that were being targeted. the insist tore general was appointed after seven democrat senators had written irs. they investigated it. we have the complete report by the independent inspector general who found in fact that conservative groups were targeted, period. now, she when this report was coming out just prior to that, she spoke to the aba group. and she put on a hollywood
after her death she was forced to pay an inheritance tax because the government didn t acknowledge their marriage. solicit tore general will be inside of the hearing where he is right now on behalf of the obama administration and arguing alongside lawyers. the justices will also hear from a lawyer defending the act saying federal regulation should be limited to traditional marriage and the government has an interest in defining marriage only between opposite sex couples saying it encourages them to establish stable relationships when they proceed create. the obama administration has spoken out against proposition 8. the president has noted in talking with you about the transformation that s been taking place in american society on these issues. he s talked about his own evolution on these issues, and many other commentators on
privacy in venezuela. you may remember the former brazilian president offered him to go seek treatment in brazil. they have accident facilities. he himself was treated for cancer there. he went to cuba. it s widely understood that he did that so nobody would know any details about his condition unless he and the government wanted it to be known. wolf? douglas brinkley, the presidential his store general, his tore general is joining us on the phone. i believe you went there with christopher hitchens and sean penn. what was he like? i spent quite a bit of time with him. he was very charismatic and quite sunny.
