When Obama was elected Boehner said “We’re ready to be lead”. And since that day he has been lead like a dumb ox with a ring in his nose tied to a rope held by Obama.

Yes he did, and yes he has.

Ray76, I have posted Boehner's quote and photo from that day several times. It was truly one of the most disgusting moments of my life, how he prostrated himself as if to a reigning sovereign. I can hear his voice and it STILL makes me sick and furious every time I think about it.

They better have a contingency plan for when the Dems and their propaganda arm (the media) raise holy hell over this.

I say go for it. Let's roll the dice and let the chips fall where they may. I'm afraid, though, that the Repubs will do what they always do: bark, and then roll over and play dead.

They have got to get rid of that groveling craven sycophant Boehner.

Can you imagine a stand off between the FBI and the Capitol Police?

My money would be on the FBI: better training, better weapons, better people.

If Boner thinks arresting her will cause the GOP to lose even one seat in Nov, he won’t do it.

I wonder if Obama will ask to have the flags lowered to half mask when Ms. Lerner unexpectedly and sadly have a life ending event...

Congress would be legally justified to arrest those found in Contempt. The FBI would be breaking the law if they interfered.

Besides that who in the FBI would risk their necks for Holder or Lerner?

Lerner's got that Mussolini-set jaw in that photo, in fact, in all her photos. Obama likes to set his head and jaw that way, too.

It must be a fascist thing.

I wonder if folks who have Mussolini-set jaws still have them when they're hung upside down from a lamp post, like Il Duce.....hmmm......

Obozo will pardon her and any other IRS employee who did his pre 2012 election dirty work. Clearly the crimes by the IRS enabled obozo to survive for a second term so does he hold office legitimately and will his pardons be legitimate?? My sense is No and No and I have grave doubts that congress will do anything but to continue to bluster and threaten for the theatrical affect.

Even if passed by Congress, Lerner would have to visit the Capitol to be arrested. Like THAT is ever going to happen.
