Those Journolista’s at the WH secret meeting that seem to be given the ‘fire Lerner’ talking points?
Backfire!
I didn’t get to see the press briefing. Did Carney cry?
I hope she gets squeezed to a point that she starts naming names...
Preferably names inside the White House...
Pressure is on. I smell a deal coming.
She better not have gone out for a walk at Fort Macy park.
Lerner’s lawyer....I can’t imagine that he let her make an opening statement.Lawyers at this level do not make these kinds of errors. Ever.

Currently on C-SPAN 3. He looks harried...
I have it now, beacuse I have had C-Span on while I work.
Awesome!! I’m no lawyer but was wondering why she was allowed to give statement & then plead 5th. That should be Law 101 right? Maybe a certain “Constitutional lawyer” advising her..ha!
Yep. Lets Make A Deal
After spending a couple nights behind bars for either contempt or perjury she will do anything to keep it from being her permanent address. After all she’s an accomplished wealthy woman
Who has needed to be audited for years!
Correction; “Consitutional law professor”..
“Lerner’s lawyer....I can’t imagine that he let her make an opening statement.Lawyers at this level do not make these kinds of errors. Ever”
Could this be her way of getting to the otherside prior to being hit by Obamas bus, She had to cut a deal because she screwed up when she really did this on purpose?
So, the recess is only to find her and then they’ll reconvene today?
I wasn’t sure how long they could “recess” for or what the protocol would be for recalling a witness that had left the building.
What's going on? I had a computer crash and can't get video back yet.
Thanks...
Watching/listening to it now. Somethings up. Carney's swagger level is down to a 4 versus his normal 9. His motions are jerky, which in my media training tends to show that he is ultra- nervous or in mega defensive mode.
I hope he has spoken to has spoken to his attorney on whether his discussions with Obama and/or staff or covered under attorney-client privlidge.
Let’s make a deal.....
