IRS finally agrees to turn over ALL Lois Lerner emails to House Republicans - a day after she´s

Also, why is it the Dems always find a singing canary like John Dean or Mark Felt but the GOP NEVER does?

From the Clinton scandals in the 1990s, we know that his team of crooks PAID OFF witnesses (like Monica Lewinsky with an offer of a six figure job at Revlon via Vernon Jordan who was on the board of directors, and Ronald Perlman was a Clintonista) to lie under oath and then there were the threats and intimidations (dead cats, slashed tires, etc).

The redaction and shredders plus the hard drive destruction will make any surviving emails and computer forinsics worthless. I suppose all of her personnel computers have been professionally wiped clean also.

We know from several of the scandals (EPA, I don't recall if we've seen it in the IRS scandal yet) that the Obama administration is using "private email accounts" of the type you get from yahoo, google, etc to engage in criminal conspiracy and to violate open records acts and freedom of information requests.

How does the House know how many e-mails she has in total? So they hand over 1,000 but leave out 100 incriminating ones. Do you think for one minute they are going to turn over anything incriminating?

Here's the rub. The IRS has no way of knowing what the House already has - if they say they're providing everything, but omit one that House already got by other means, the feces will really hit the fan.

Will Elijah Cummings emails be included? That will help tell us the value of this document dump.

It’s a start. Bottom line is that people have committed crimes and need to face justice.

Lots of people in the IRS understand the law... no one’s going to destroy evidence. They’ll make it difficult to get but it won’t disappear.

A lot of people in the IRS and Justice Department aren't so clean as you think. Often they leave for private practice giving tax advice and legal counsel to those engaged in shady business practices including the mob. And in some cases (notably in dealing with the mob) they pull strings in the Justice Department to get overzealous investigators pulled off of cases.
