I bet they did...Ran over them with a semi did they?
Lies, lies, and more lies.
Like with Benghazi, Fast and Furious, etc., etc.
The whole lot of them need to be in jail.
The only thing more astonishing than these unbelievably ludicrous excuses and lies is the fact that more people are not demanding impeachment and jail!
Good thing the IRS isn’t involved in our health care. Oh, wait...
Well then it’s time to “Prematurely Retire” the irs.
$1,800,000,000.00 and they still can't function?
Yeah riiiiiight.
Absolute power corrupts absolutely…the old adage proven correct once again. The IRS and the income tax were always terrible ideas for a free people.
Abolish both and institute a flat tax for everyone living in this country.
Everyone ought to pay the same percentage….no deductions for anything. If you don’t like it, find another country.
Like that'll happen.
Gee, when you add this all up, it sure does sound like the IRS deliberately destroyed drives and back ups to get rid of incriminating emails. But the IRS commissioner assures us that it was all just a big mistake — or series of multiple big mistakes — so I guess its OK.
The more that trickles out about this story, the clearer it becomes that this was a long-term, thought-out strategy to remove all traces of these emails throughout IRS systems.
Lois Lerner took an ax
and gave her hard drive forty whacks,
and when she saw what she had done,
she gave six others forty one.
And yet some backups did exist,
so carefully she made a list.
So when she found them, she was not slow,
To give those too the old heave ho.
I bet that a lot of those computers, reportedly ‘disposed’, wound up in IRS employee homes. Plain old corruption and theft...................
Funny how the only computers hard drives that seem to have been destroyed are those that would have contained the e-mails linking the IRS sandal directly to the Obama White House. This was a coverup.
This is without a doubt the GREATEST scandal in the US political history, bar none!
... OOPS .... well as long as they say they're sorry and apologize Joe public will be OK with it.
Wiggle all you want. Since the action happened after the start of the Inquiry -
It's destruction of evidence.
As another freeper said...”No Emails??? NO Taxes!!!....pass it around
Nothing to see here or it would have been reported in the NYT (owned by the OMG). We need to focus more on American Idol or reality TV. You guys are too serious about real news. Take a chill pill and relax.
No consequences.
Reasonable people would conclude that the IRS, EPA and DoE (and other federal agencies) are out of control and need to be abolished. Since the IRS, EPA and DoE (and other federal agencies) keep getting stronger and more destructive, reasonable people must further conclude that there aren’t any reasonable people in positions of authority.
