Great idea. But why stop with Lois? Arrest Obama and Holder while you’re at it.
So just how is Congress going to get Ms. Lerner to testify, beat it out of her? She won’t talk period. I know from firsthand experience that IRS employees, especially managers, think they can do ANYTHING, because NO LAWS apply to them. They ARE the law (in their minds)
And the IRS has a SWAT team to protect Ms. Lerner.
It would need the consent of Boehner to do this. Either the House or Senate has the power to arrest for contempt and other matters. See the trial of Sam Houston in the House for a physical attack on a sitting Congressman. There is a jail in the Capitol, but no person may be held absent a vote of the entire body and then only as long as the Congressional Session. She would be released on 12/31.
That’s exactly what the House should do but Boehner hasn’t got the guts to do it.
This is absolutely correct but we have quivering ganglia republicrats wavering!! That is why MILLIONS of former “republicans” are now “INDEPENDENT” . Republicrats like bush boner christie rubio — SUCK!!
They can. But they wont. The democrats and the liberal media will go into propaganda overdrive, circling the wagons around her “big bad republicans jailing poor innocent women!”) and making the republicans waste their political capitol on this instead of on the upcoming 2014 elections.
And if the House does manage to get her locked up, I expect that several female Dem reps will get locked up with her..in solidarity...
Yes, they can. No, they will not. Boehner doesn’t want her arrested, he agrees with what she’s been doing.
Lerner should be hung,
Course congress hasn’t the guts to do squat here.
Worthless pussies.
