IRS Source: Lerner Placed On Administrative Leave
National Review ^ | 5/23/13 | Eliana Johnson

Posted on 05/23/2013 2:06:19 PM PDT by Nachum

Lois Lerner, the Internal Revenue Service’s director of exempt organizations, has been placed on administrative leave, according to a source in the agency’s Cincinnati office.

Lerner on Thursday afternoon sent an e-mail to employees in the exempt organizations division she oversees stating, “Due to the events of recent days, I am on administrative leave starting today. An announcement will be made shortly informing you who will be acting while I am on administrative leave. I know all of you will continue to support EO’s mission during these difficult times.” She concluded, “I thank you for all your hard work and dedication,” adding, “The work you do is important.”

Why wouldn’t she get a promotion? She did exactly what was expected of her. Seems unfair.

She took the 5th when testifying to Congress.

That alone is grounds for immediate termination. No pay, no benefits.

Administrative leave, my a**.

Or the first to receive a presidential pardon? Has he officially pardoned anyone yet?

Do wrong a crime, get a paid vacation. It’s a great country, isn’t it.

Fixed.

"On top of everything else this broad gets an extended paid vacation."

Where she'll inevitably have a skiing or boating *accident*.

"Is it possible she did it on purpose and is her ‘leave’ because they figured out she did it on purpose?"

I've wondered if Issa might be trying to cut a deal. I've also wondered if the tracks don't lead to Obama's Rasputin (Valerie Jarrett).

Either way, May/June is a great time to take an extended paid vacation. Why haven't I ever had an employer like that?

I hope this “witch” is not receiving any pay or benefits at all during her administratvie leave. Otherwise this action is just a farce....and it will not go down well. My gut feeling is that she is being treated royally by Obama and his criminal thugs!!! She is probably having tea with Michelle Obama & Valerie Jarrett this very evening!! I’ll bet Obama has just given her an extended vacation with pay and benefits included!!!

Can anyone find how Lois is connected to the union?
Is she a member?
Is she an adversary? Who answers to whom?
This article prompted the questions:

I know all of you will continue to support EO’s mission

How come they know the mission and congress does not?

Hope it’s without pay.

If without, she will make it up in speaking engagements and book rights.

WHO will deliver subpoenas to Joe Biden, Valerie Jarrett, Hillary Clinton, Lois Lerner, David Axelrod, Leon Panetta, Eric Holder, Gen. Petraeus, Gen. Ham......

The list goes on and on and on.

Demand to know:
Where are these people? When will they be called to account?

Call your representatives.

And a forfeiture, or a substantial reduction, in her pension!

Subject her to either jail time or that, and she'll start yapping.
