Agency destroyed e-mails after telling Congress they couldnt be found.
House Republicans investigating the IRSs targeting of tea-party groups are seriously considering an effort to impeach IRS commissioner John Koskinen or other agency employees for culpable misdemeanors pertaining to the destruction of e-mails written by Lois Lerner, the former official at the heart of the scandal.
Weve briefed the leaderships counsel, and I think that theyre open to it, but its the type of thing where this town is like, oh, thats not how we do things, its not really been used lately, a Republican member of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee says. But, quite frankly, we really havent had executive branch officials behave this way like we do now.
Lawmakers have been privately mulling the unconventional tactic for months, in part due to frustration that cutting the agencys budget and holding Lerner in contempt of Congress failed to speed up the glacial pace at which the agency has produced documents requested by the committee.
If you have a situation where its fine for people to come misrepresent the facts, not produce documents, and just do that with impunity, then why are we even conducting oversight?

... should be impeached and thrown in prison ...
But Speake Bonehead has no balls and is King Obummer’s butt boy, nothing will happen.
Blah...blah...blah!
The house republicans are a minority wing of the RAT Party.
Will they impeach him? Nope. They'll huff and puff and look earnest and important and concerned and outraged, and he won't even have to apologize for the thing to be dropped. If I had to single out one thing that is the most corrosive and dangerous action taken by either of the 0bama administrations, it wouldn't be 0bamacare, it would be the open transformation of the IRS into a tool of partisan political control.
And they really, really, really, really mean it this time.
There is a better chance of them snorting cocaine off of the backs of drag queen hookers on the House floor than that.
“House Republicans Considering Impeachment of IRS Head over Stonewalling in Lois Lerner Investigation”
Yeah sure just like Trey Gowdy said he’d get to the bottom of Benghazi and hold Hillary accountable. BS! BS!
Yeah right.
> There is a better chance of them snorting cocaine off of the backs of drag queen hookers on the House floor than that.
Barney Frank got re-elected?
These elected Republicans are a joke.
Impeach anybody? That’s just for the hicks back home, like you.
If we do not elect a true conservative President in 2016, it will be time to plan on how to live in a radical, leftwing, anti-Christian country.
Today he could be president.
Well, I have a better suggestion ...
Then, after a month or so, "thrown in prison."
Agreed, Foreskinnin should wait for death in a 6x9 graybar, but with our self-compromised 0bama-fellating Republitards fumbledicking the show, it’s gonna be another episode of Kabuki Masturbatory Exercise Theater.
The Crier will never let it happen
Talk, more talk, do nothing......Been there done that.
Scooter Libby spent 3 years in federal prison for giving a mistaken date to the FBI in his testimony in the Valerie Plame hoax. This albino lizard from the IRS should spend at least 10 years in the jug for blatantly lying to Congress with that serpentine smile on his mug.
Said solons then immediately castigated for using a banned variation of the obviously Confederate-influenced name/term ‘Stonewall’
Oh, they’re “considering” it? Again? Still?
GOP Impeachment = Obama’s Redline = Iran Nuke Deadline
I think we are well beyond the planning stage.
