Ends up Lois Lerner was e-mailing her husband with the conservative knock
Washington Post ^ | August 1, 2014 | By Josh Hicks

Republicans this week released e-mails showing that former Internal Revenue Service official Lois Lerner expressed scorn for conservatives in an e-mail to an unidentified recipient — the name was redacted.

Lerner’s remarks would be troubling if she sent them to another IRS official, but it ends up that she was communicating with her husband, Michael Miles, according to unredacted copies of the exchange that Democrats leaked on Friday.

So if you donate money to a traditional marriage group, you are so tainted that you cannot be trusted at work (Mozilla), but you can bash conservatives to your spouse, yet be trusted to keep your bias out of your work (Lerner).

Hypocrisy, thy name is liberal...

The lackey WP on full display. Did they use the same reasoning with Romney’s 47% statement to a private group, or the same rationale for the intercepted Florida cell call years ago. No they didn’t . The integrity of the WP and the rest of the media is below pig slop.

Well dang, I thought that was one of the more sensible posts I’d read in a long time, and you pop my balloon.

I wonder if the chairman of the committee is indicating that Lehner’s personal emails, twitters, and other electronic communications made through her own blackberry and computer, as well as her husbands and his workplace are off limits, allowing them to think they are protected and will not be suppoena, then suddenly issue a subpoena and make the search after they have been made to fell easy about what they write. I think it would be a bonanza for Issa.

Writer's bias is evident throughout the article and he specifically lies that circumstantial evidence can not prove a conspiracy. He would have you believe that only direct evidence or the proverbial smoking gun is sufficient. Not true.

You want to go there WP? Show some journalistic balls by detailing the number of times Lois Lerner, in her position at the IRS, interacted with Mr. Miles' law firm in settling Miles' clients tax disputes. Conflict of interest, anyone?

Why else would Ms. Lerner have retained her maiden name?

If Josh Hicks were actually a journalist rather than a Democrat shill working for a Democrat house organ, he would have been intrigued by the fact that somehow Democrats have unredacted copies of Lerner’s correspondance, thinking that there must be a treasure trove of journalistic scoops in that material, and that he needed to find a “deep throat” source who could forward that material so that he could do real investigative journalism, rather than simply acting as a paid mouthpiece for the Democrats. But no...

So the emails were to hubby? Well, I guess the hubbub was for nothing. All is forgiven. Forgive our misplaced judgements, Ms Lois Apparatchik.

“the content shows her feelings”

Exactly. It proves her `animus’ towards conservatives (not necessarily the GOP). Crime: joint union of act and intent.
Corruption, a species of criminal activity. And the IRS political hack perpetrators continue to `thumb their noses’ at the country.

These hateful samples are only a little bit of this nasty animus held by the IRS policy and decision makers, from top-to-bottom. And the House Oversight committee soldiers on—yawn are we done yet?—moving along at their glacier-like speed.

That brings up the next question: “Can ‘spouses’ in a same-sex ‘marriage’ testify against one another?
