House GOP to File Criminal Charges Against Lois Lerner in IRS Scandal

GP ^

[Enlightened1]

Rep. Peter Roskam (R-IL) went on with Stewart Varney on Thursday morning to discuss recent developments on Capitol Hill.

 

Roskam told Stewart House Republicans are planning of filing criminal charges against Lois Lerner.

 

 

Rep. Roskam: The Obama Administration was very lenient with the crimes that Lois Lerner committed. And those are strong words that I’m using but the House Ways and Means Committee voted out a criminal referral to the Department of Justice which was completely dismissed by the Department of Justice… We think that Lois Lerner did two things wrong. Number one, she denied people due process and equal protection of the law based on their political philosophy. We’re convinced that there is overwhelming evidence to suggest that that’s true. And that’s a felony. Secondly, we suspect that she lied to the Inspecter General of the Treasury Department.

it’s a start

[CondorFlight]

About time.

[morphing libertarian]

I wonder if a federal retiree is convicted of committing a crime while working, it they lose their federal pension.

[BeauBo]

Claw back her retirement pay, and fine her all she is worth.

[originalbuckeye]

I SURE HOPE SO!!

[rktman]

No there there. She’ll slide off into retirement with a much better pension than I have. It’d be AWESOME for all these miscreants to pay the price but I ain’t holding my breath.

[conservative98]

Get r done.

[Buckeye McFrog]

They had better ask for a change of venue out of D.C.

I doubt they could get 12 other Federal employees to vote to convict.

[lee martell]

This is just now being ‘talked about’? WTF?!!

[ColdOne]

I will be shocked if this goes anywhere.

[RW_Whacko]

Now get Koskinen. Wipe that grin off his mug “like with a rag.”

REMEMBER?

Candidate Obama said tea parties are a “threat to democracy.”

Valerie Jarrett said they “would not forget” which Americans did not worship Obama.

Obama told latinos we will reward our friends and “punish our enemies.”

it’s a start

One suspects that Ms. Lerner had/has multiple accomplices.

One hopes that many more will face justice.

[DIRTYSECRET]

How long will the trial take?

[beethovenfan]

Are they going after Koskinen also? They should.

[Night Hides Not]

No there there. She’ll slide off into retirement with a much better pension than I have.

She's been retired over a year. Her husband is a partner at a law firm in DC that, you guessed it, specializes in providing tax advice to their clients. He's as big a liberal as his wife, based on articles I've read.

[jazusamo]

I sure hope so, if anyone deserves to be in a fed slammer it’s Lerner.

[WildHighlander57]

Thanks for the info!

Ping!!

L Lerner in hot water... Felonies committed.
