Current IRS Commissioner John Koskinen testified Friday on the scandal involving the targeting of conservative groups applying for tax-exempt status.

And although the hearing was filled with many memorable and tense moments, particularly between the commissioner and Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., one detail that went unmentioned Friday is Koskinen's former employer.

The white house attorney testifying today (O’Connor) worked for the IRS right around the time of the “crash”.

Issa should preface his questioning with, “Sooner or later all the data will become public knowledge. At that time anyone who has lied, deceived or otherwise tried to evade responsibility WILL be prosecuted under civil laws. They will go to jail! Consider this when you testify. The opportunity for a Presidential pardon most likely will not exist.”

How can Bammy issue pardons where there is “...not even a smidgen of corruption...”? There should be even a smidgen of pardon either.

He knows that he will never be prosecuted and if he is, Obama will just pardon him.

And .. a $100,000 dollar donor to the DEMOCRAT PARTY.

That seems to be the key to getting appointed.

Makes sense why Koskinen feels the oversight committee is not a threat.
