"Atually she has to plea the 5th to every question. If she answers any of them she has to answer all of them."

Why is that? I've seen people selectively apply the 5th before.

Don’t grant her immunity. She’s guilty.
She also has a history of religious persecution at the FEC before going to the IRS. She needs to go to jail.

"Issa and the committee can’t officially draw any conclusions, but we’re not any kind of jury"

I think they are drawing plenty of conclusions. But they are still pursuing evidence. Hopefully they will act on those conclusions and we will see some prosecutions.

It just occurred to me that Lerner was appointed the plum job as a future chief honcha of ObamaCare (by one of the two sleaze-ball ex-commissioners that just testified, don't know which) TO KEEP HER QUIET.

She obviously knows from whence all the evil directives to target conservatives came from. She was given the plushy ObamaCare job to keep her quiet.....and, most assuredly, the orders to appoint her came down from WAY on high.

However, to paraphrase the poet Robert Burns, "the best laid plans of mice and men oft go astray"......and suddenly the IRS scandal broke.

Now, Lerner is in a bind...with no place to go....damned if she does and damned if she doesn't. The two male slime-ball ex-commissioners don't work for the IRS anymore and don't give a damn.....while she's left holding the bag.

The future plush ObamaCare job is undoubtedly out the window for this unfortunate but amoral lady who's headed for the undercarriage of Obama's bus in very short order. She'll probably have to "resign" her current position also.

Oh, what a tangled web these power-hungry DC scums weave when first they practice to deceive.

I'm getting a headache just thinking about all this, LOL. I hope they all go down the drain, never to surface again in public "service" again.

Does anyone know what time the committee convenes today?

I hope it's going to be carried by C-Spam 3 which has been providing good coverage of these investigative hearings.
