‘PHONY SCANDALS’: OBAMA IRS THUG LOIS LERNER TO RECEIVE $50K A YEAR SALARY IN RETIREMENT
TPPN ^ | 09.23.13 | Todd Cefaratti

Posted on 09/24/2013 9:57:54 AM PDT by South40

With our civil liberties continually under threat from this Administration, I offer to the American people a good news/bad news combo that is sure to serve as a bittersweet victory for those who have opposed the IRS’ campaign of harassment against political dissidents.

Lois Lerner, the embattled IRS official who was in charge of overseeing the tax exempt division of the IRS that has been routinely targeting and harassing conservative and Tea Party groups for years, has retired.

Good riddance….

However, the sound of the other shoe dropping is heard as Lerner can now look forward to over $50,000 in annual salary for her “service” to our nation.

I wonder what second prize is for systematically targeting political groups for harassment.

And our thug-enabling Congress will do nothing about it.

If only we could get rid of all of them for $50k per year.

$50,000 speech fees, book royalties, and possible election as US senator.

Who is going to be the first brave State AG to file charges against her?

They could really pile the charges on her, but they would have to be ready for the enemy media onslaught.

The B!TCH isn’t worth 5 K a year.

Ms Lerner was forced into early retirement. Most feds retire in their early 60’s at 30 plus year s service and get about 2/3 of their top three base pay. She is about 20K short of this.

Don’t forget she’s also going get a job with lobbyists, or with the news media for another $100K+
She took one for the Regime and she will have a solid gold parachute to console her.

The only thing phony about this scandal is the Obama administration's response to it.

If it had happened under a Republican President, and if the IRS had targeted the ACLU, or the Southern Poverty Law Center, or the NAACP, or the AFL-CIO, or the Animal Liberation Front, or PeTA, or the Tides Foundation, or MALDEF, or Code Pink, or Media Matters, or Human Rights Watch, or ACT-UP, or the Black Panther Party, or CAIR, or the Muslim Students Association, or the National Council or La Raza, or Planned Parenthood, or the Nation of Islam, or the National Committee on Pay Equity, or the National Lawyer's Guild, or the International Solidarity Movement, or the Lambda Legal Foundation... or any of the thousands of other left-wing organizations that get billions of dollars through the left-wing hive...

Well, I'm guessing the scandal would be treated as quite a bit less "phony" by the Main Stream Media, Famous Constitutionally Protected Watchers of the Watchers.

If she worked for the feds for 30 years, it will be double that.

Taxpayer-funded pension, taxpayer-funded healthcare for life, and her dacha by the lake.

And another New Socialist Agent For Change is rewarded by the Peoples' Party.

With any luck our former government employee and public servant, lovely Lois Lerner, will have to buy her insurance through an Obamacare exchange and that $50,000 pension will be halved in 5 years.

No pension, but mandatory jail time.

You can’t generate a 2/3 percentage under the current retirement system.

She was a good servant, she probably has a hefty offshore account established for her.

I’m sure she’ll also get subsidized health insurance. Now it’s time for the rinos to start saying “We need to move forward.”

I don’t understand why civil charges cannot be brought against her by people she was targeting.
