Lerner would be screaming to be arrested if a crowd of
irate taxpayers were battering at her door...

Arrests for contempt of congress are exceedingly rare. Only about 3 times since 1795.

Arrests for contempt of congress are exceedingly rare. Only about 3 times since 1795. We're way overdue for a fourth time.

I think the last time it happened was in 1920.

Arrests are rare because those found in contempt almost always comply one way or another.

She’s one of Barry’s smidgens. Not one smidgen has ever been arrested in the history of the United States Congess. However, the Rams did make “history” by drafting the first “openly gay” homosexual in the “history” of the NFL recently so who knows what could happen.

Congressional leaders like Boehner share in the shame of allowing the erosion of the fundamental rule of law in the USA, including freedom-supporting constitutional law, with Democrat socialists and assorted fascist/statist “leaders.”
