Lois G. Lerner, the employee at the center of the IRS tea party targeting scandal, wanted to recover files from her computer hard drive after it crashed in 2011, but when told it was impossible, she took a philosophical view.
“Sometimes stuff just happens,” she said in a 2011 email to the IRS tech staff that tried to recover documents from the hard drive.

Can ANYONE really believe this?
I mean, you’d have to be the most ignorant of Obama voters to even think this would pass a smell test,
even if you knew nothing about computers, email, or IT.
Yeah, like when President Cruz puts you in federal prison.
Yes, sometimes one of the most effective and comprehensive computer systems on Planet Earth fails to make a backup copy of its files.
But only in Never-Never Land.
Oh...how convenient!
...I don,t think anyone connected to Obama,s Adminstration will see one day in prison...these are very smart Nazis!
She’s right. Sometimes stuff does just happen. And other times, people destroy evidence and then lie about it.
Once again, does anyone really think “sometimes stuff just happens” would be accepted by the IRS as an excuse from a taxpayer who was missing documents?
I really hope that, if the elections are fair and we get a Republican president,
that SOMETHING is done about the corruption of the former admin.
Bush was not about to do any such thing, even excusing millions in vandalism to our White House.
lying snake in the grass
She knows everyone knows she’s lying and doesn’t care.
Kind of like shed happens.
good point, maybe we can all sing a similar tune to the IRS, oh we lost all our income information, you understand, right? Stuff happens...............
A: Because they may want to use the same excuse themselves one of these days and don't want to rock the boat ?
When I think of her leg-irons come to mind.
What this says is they have known this all this time
but forgot to mention it to the investigators???
People need to do hard time over this.
Because the entirety of the IRS’ email system is on a single hard drive that crashed, right?
So can we assume, Ms. Lerner, that every email the IRS ever had is gone as well?
These people think we’re idiots. They really think we’re THAT dumb.
In your face America! - Love, Lois
This is also a good point. I've seen disk drives suffering from the "click of death" recovered to nearly 100% of written data in a sterile "white room." Hell, I've brought an old hard drive back to life just long enough to export the data using some plastic and a cotton ball.
Nope, they’re DARING us to do anything about it.
