She is a showcase example of how the Federal government works.

She refuses to answer questions about what she did or knew ON THE JOB and instead of being fired from that job she gets put on paid administrative leave (extra vacation) until this blows over.
And only that because the issue is hot right now.

And on another topic --

Why did she do such an incompetent job of taking the Fifth?
She's a stupid party aparatchik who bullies people but doesn't really get paid to think all that much.

What would you dictate for a true traitor to American Freedom whose very actions violated so many of the actual protections of the US Constitution and further undermined the heretofore pact of faith and trust between Government and “We the People.”

Indict, Try, Convict and Execute.

I'm thinking that Lerner is going to be made the sacrificial goat in this whole culture of corruption called the Obama Administration. She'll be made to bear the full brunt of the blame, and then she'll disappear. All nice and clean.

A Congress with backbone and an ounce of moral sense would appoint and independent council and offer her prosecutorial immunity for her cooperation in finding and indicting the real criminals all the way to the top.

It turns out Lerner’s an old hand at strangling the First Amendment to help DemonCraps, particularly including Dickie Turban. See:

Conservative Voter Suppression directed from the White House!

Publicly released records show that embattled former IRS Commissioner Douglas Shulman visited the White House at least 157 times during the Obama administration, more recorded visits than even the most trusted members of the president’s Cabinet.

“There are instances where donor information may be needed for the IRS to make a proper determination of an organization’s exempt status, such as when the application presents possible issues of inurement or private benefit,” she explained.


That’s all well and good. The QUESTION is.... why have you continued to deny the tax exempt status (in it’s various forms) to those groups that appear above board, even after such in depth investigation, BUT.... completely ignore investigating any groups with huge signs of impropriety (Like OBAMA’S HALF BROTHER/UNCLE/whatever) who don’t even live in the United States and have been exposed as lying about the use of the money ?

The 157 visits to me is the red flag waving in the wind. There is a huge story related to these visits. Congress should be zeroing in on this.

Yeah, the approval discrepancy between conservative and liberal groups, or even groups with con/lib “sounding” names,

should be enough of an indicator that corruption was afoot.

Trouble? That starts with `T’ and rhymes with `P’ and that spells M-O-O-N!

Arbitrary and capricious `Wesley Mouch’ power-drunk, highly paid political `entrepreneurs/hired-hands’ right out of Atlas Shrugged, clothed with federal authority & loosed from their leashes by their masters (`Sic `em girl!’), threatening the `enemy’ with federal retaliation if they dare to run for office again or express opinions contrary to the AmeriSoc party?

Yeah, I’d say we have a problem Houston. And it starts right at the top. Special prosecutor. Now!

IMHO, it is because she 'thinks' she is smarter than her lawyers.

No immunity! Come down upon her like a ton of bricks. Only when she sees the darkest dawn will she offer up those above. THEN there can be a discussion of immunity. But for the love of God, don’t lead with it!

“The 157 visits to me is the red flag waving in the wind.”

Carney the Carney would respond, “That’s preposterous, I personally know half a dozen Doug Shulmans”.

Like he did for domestic terrorist Ayers.
