“My friend asked him to put the deal in writing. The attorney’s face turned bright red and he walked away.”

You know, you try to have faith in people, especially judges and it was a jolt to see such blatant corruption of that Democrat judge trying to destroy the lives of honest Republican office holders. My husband was the Republican County Chair and that Democrat judge would have charged us with a crime if she could have trumped one up.

Oh, I know that she will never appear, but I want her name in the “news” as much as possible. Make her refuse the subpoena. Make her uncomfortable. Get her name out there for the LIVs. Ask Carney what her role is in all of these scandals. Ask Carney if she is the “real” POTUS. Ask Carney about her “Payback time” quote. Piss her off. Her arrogance will cause her to screw up.

Well I’m with you on that. Jarrett has been AWOL from the news reporting to such an extent that I have ordered a fresh shipment of tinfoil. I’m thinking the MSM types are afraid to open the Jarrett Can of Worms out of fear for where it will lead.

So keep pushing the Jarrett Did It meme. Tinfoil hat or not, I think it’s true and some enterprising reporter needs to follow the lead.

We are definitely 1984. I went to Amazon to buy the book and there was a note from them to me that I bought it a number of years ago and I bought the combination one of Animal Farm and 1984. Well, I can’t find the one I bought those years ago.

People lawyer up and shut up when a special prosecutor is named. Best for Congress to investigate this fastly and furiously.

Too late. They are already lawyering up. And to make matters worse, DOJ is involved. Can anyone imagine DOJ doing an objective investigation? Or the Obama administration being cooperative in supplying documents? We need to get this out of the hands of Congress and the DOJ. The Dems are forming a circle around Obama. Anyone watching the congressional hearings knows that the Dems will obstruct and obfuscate any real attempt to get to the facts.

We need a special prosecutor. Did you read the title of this thread? Lerner is taking the 5th. She is shutting up. And what is happening with "Fast and Furious?"

I’m with you 100%! Jarret is the devil!

Ps: As I typed Jarret a Stinkbug landed on my monitor right where her name was typed! Coincidence? I think not! I should have written Jarret is a Stinkbug! :)

A special prosecutor would put an end to congressional witnesses and testimony. Best for Congress to hold off as long as possible.

The most "transparent" government in the history of the universe taking the Fifth Amendment! ROTFLMAO!!!

I can see why Barry is still loved by 54% of the people living in this country. 54% of us are blithering idiots.

However, if someone high in government really authorized this (i.e. someone in the White House), you can bet it was done verbally for plausible deniability.

You can bet the rent it was authorized by those at the highest levels of this corrupt government. Leftist operate with complete control...They're control freaks by nature and it's extremely likely they don't even trust each other, based on recent events alone.

Even if done verbally, it could also mean they know they got their teet in the ringer as they attempt to hide/isolate or insulate themselves evidence/leaks or additional whistle blowers as they attempt to deceive their way through this.

If they think they got more potential whistle blowers coming, you're going to keep your mouth shut or risk stepping in it big time.

I have a lib challenging me to name numerous lib groups that received tax exempt status promptly while conservative groups were delay, challenged, etc. I’ve seen MSM (TV) reports including mentions of such, one even including a one guy heading a lib group who got the status readily / agreeing it was unfair for the IRS to target conservative groups. And I’ve seen various articles with mention of one group or another. But I have not seen an impressive list. Does anyone have one, or a link to such?

Thanks!

Not to worry. Obama says he will get to the bottom of it.

“...You can bet the rent it was authorized by those at the highest levels of this corrupt government.,,,,”
Absolutely!! That is the only place the IRS reports to. Just from the arrogance of the testimony the other day shows that they don’t even have a fear of Congress. It is a totally corrupt, politicized, rogue agency that strikes fear in the hearts of every working, tax-paying citizen. It was specifically singled out by odongo to enforce obamacare for that very reason. It is also the most despised, hated, reviled agency in the Fed govt. I couldn’t even begin to imagine of having to work there. Just as they give no citizen a break, neither should they be given a break. It needs to be poured on relentlessly. Give no break to any of these bassturds. The only solution is the abolishment of it.

Exactly. Tomorrow is the court of Public Opinion.
Lerner taking the fifth over and over on TV will not look good.

I saw that combo. It looked pretty nice, being a hardbacked one.

But, alas, I was frugal and got 2 used paperbacks. I just hope their condition is as good as described.

I didn’t get any. Was trying to decide if I wanted hard back or cheaper Kindle. I didn’t think about used. I just want the 1984, not the Farm one. I looked through some books but I cleaned out books “with the help of my son and husband of my sister-in-lar” and I don’t know if that book was thrown away.

Anyway, right now, I don’t have one. I wanted it to re-read it.

Hate crimes are almost impossible to defend against, and even if you are found Innocent it becomes very hard to get keep a job in the area you were sued in.

Favorite tactic in some parts.

“Hate crimes are almost impossible to defend against, and even if you are found Innocent it becomes very hard to get keep a job in the area you were sued in.”

That was such a trumped up charge, no one believed it.

Within less than an hour, I’m going to have a severe thunderstorm hit me. I’m watching the radar getting closer and closer to my area and it’s moving fast. I’m 60 miles north of Houston.

Stay safe. We had a few in Iowa the last couple of days.

My bride is a teacher. That is the kiss of death, and the parents know it. One tried to say my bride was teaching “white math to black kids” and was racist. She was lucky, and was able to say that she flunked more white kids than black.

Otherwise her teaching days might have been over.

I was a fifth grade teacher for six years, then got my counseling degree. Back then, whites lived in one area and blacks lived in another, so classes were not mixed.

So what is Mark Levin talking about, when he says that Boehner is the only thing standing in the way of a special prosecutor?
