Next step is to rule that the missing emails would have proved the plaintiff’s case and find for the plaintiff.

You mean the dog ate the hard drive isn’t good enough? Why not? It works for the Rats in Congress.

[RIghtwardHo]

I like that.

[rktman]

LOL! The irs response: “Owwwww. A judge scolded us. Owwww.”

[cripplecreek]

Judges pay taxes too.

Obstruction of Justice & Perjury looming for many of Barack’s foot soldiers.

What can the judge do if the IRS continues to stonewall, using the “we lost the data” argument?

[Jet Jaguar]

Bump

[jazusamo]

That would be sweet.

[Sir Napsalot]

yeah! Some good news.

So sad we’ve come to this point.

“You mean the dog ate the hard drive isn’t good enough? “

Rats, beat me to it.

Dim-bulb-crat excuse 3: I accidentally hit the delete button (after marking the file and confirming I really wanted to delete it).

Dim-bulb-crat excuse 4: George W made me do it.

Following these, the Holder Clown show of felon/cretins will issue the standard “Nothing to see here, move along, move along.” response.

Really, does anyone actually think something will come of this?

Unless someone actually gets tossed in the klink, this amounts to nothing more than a kibuki slapfest between lawyers and politicians.

U.S. District Court Judge Emmet Sullivan has ordered the IRS to come up with a better explanation as to why the agency cannot produce valid documentation.

He told them to come up with a better excuse?

I wish he had simply told them to produce the documentation or be jailed for contempt.

[jazusamo]

Yes, very sad we’ve come to this point.

The executive branch is blatantly lawless and arrogantly dares anyone to do something about it.

Looks like this judge is calling them.

[WayneS]

Or maybe the fish slapping dance?

[C210N]

You captured this exactly right.

It’s as if the Judge was saying, “I don’t buy the excuse you just made up out of thin air... so, go back to the drawing board, and make up a more believable excuse out of thin air.”
