Up to 30,000 missing emails sent by former Internal Revenue Service official Lois Lerner have been recovered by the IRS inspector general, five months after they were deemed lost forever.

“They just said it took them several weeks and some forensic effort to get these emails off these tapes,” a congressional aide told the Washington Examiner.

What’s the chance that they “selectively” recovered emails or perhaps even “massaged” them a bit before turning them over?

Let’s see if this is for real. Call me cynical, but I will believe it when we see Lois’ bloody paws working with the Emperor or Holder on this...

Nothing will come of it.

Elections have consequences. The loss of the Senate and continued control of the House is making a lot of these jackasses lose sleep now.

To me the significance of this is that these were supposedly “lost forever.” How many more are going to be found now that were supposedly “lost forever?”

We have no way of knowing if there are more that the IRS doesn’t (didn’t) want seen. Who can be trusted? No need to answer that.
