Nothing is lost. I assure you there is a backup copy around. I worked in the business long enough to not fall for this BS.
The fact that they’re throwing out such an obvious lie shows you their contempt for us - AND CONGRESS.
Hard drive crashed = the dog ate my homework.
2 yrs of data lost means the crash/deletion was recent. So there definitely are backups for most if not almost all of that data. Also, the hardware failure would have generated a trail documenting the failure and replacement of the hardware, and likely data restore to the failed disk.
This is a very obvious and transparent lie.
Congress must imprison these Lerner.
This is an administration of liars. They were able to produce other Lerner emails before, and the hard drives are not segregated by person, so who else's emails are lost?
I bet that none are really lost. I bet that the Obama administration is lying even now, and that the emails are still there, or at worst are recoverable from back-ups.

I would like to know who did this, too. It would take a SysAdmin for sure. There’s no way Lerner had access or the knowledge of how to do this.
Fox? ABC? Reuters? AP? NBC? CBS? NY Times? Washington Post? Buehler? Buehler? Buehler?
They need to prove that this ‘crash’ occurred. Absent that, the messages were deleted.
This is destruction of evidence. Evidence which Congress subpoenaed. Congress has imprisoned people for exactly this crime.
Their lies are so bold that I don’t think they even care if they are believed. They say it so it is fact and Congress has shown that it is unwilling to make them tell the truth and comply with subpoenas. The DOJ is corrupt, so any muscle like the FBI will be neutered or used to further the cover-up. If Congress does not confront the growing Imperial Presidency, they will soon discover they are no longer needed except for ceremonial purposes.
I imagine a systems auditor who was even halfway competent could find out exactly what happened.
To: Celtic Conservative The Freedom of Information Act allows anyone to compel the government to turn over copies of federal agency records. Exceptions include records that if made public would damage national security, violate personal privacy or expose business secrets or confidential decision-making in certain areas. 44 U.S. Code § 3101 - Records management by agency heads; general duties The head of each Federal agency shall establish safeguards against the removal or loss of records he determines to be necessary and required by regulations of the Archivist. Safeguards shall include making it known to officials and employees of the agency (1) that records in the custody of the agency are not to be alienated or destroyed except in accordance with sections 3301-3314 of this title, and (2) the penalties provided by law for the unlawful removal or destruction of records. |
They can trace this back....if they want to. There are so many severs & backup systems that the chance of these emails being lost is almost impossible.
all the agencies I worked with had email servers routing the data. those servers were all backed up. nothing was lost. IT contracts supporting the systems are very lucrative ... they can’t expect us to believe none of those systems were backed up
let’s get the name of the IT support company. let’s give them a chance to cough up the backups or be banished from govt contracting indefinitely
I know, it’ll never happen. dems don’t follow the law and no one cares.
which begs the question, why do the rest of us follow their laws if they don’t?
Oh, this is a good point.
“Id be outraged, but my outrager is plum tuckered out.”
Ha. Mine too.
Paul Sperry of WorldNetDaily reported on missing White House emails of Al Gore and how the entire email archive process was tainted during the Clinton-Gore campaign financing scandal investigations.
The Democrat party was always a criminal and corrupt organization.

Yup.....this is a middle finger to congress. Let’s see if they respond.
Wouldn’t the IT company have to be a public record since taxpayer dollars are paying them?
Since spending and funding originate in the House, it sure seems like Republicans have the upper hand and the dems lack the votes to stop them. If the Republicans don’t get to the bottom of this then they’re part of a coverup and a crime.
