In the days of letters and paper memos the company I worked for sent around a memo about a lawsuit. They wanted us to report whether we had certain correspondence. I kept a file of everything I’d received by date. I called as I had exactly what they were looking for. An attorney hustled to my cube and reviewed it. He took the whole file. I said, “Wait, I need copies of that.” He looked at me like I was crazy and said no. Did any of that material make it to the other side’s discovery? I’d bet not or he’d have let me copy it. They didn’t want it discovered so they made certain it wouldn’t be. That’s what’s going on here. Now, on the good side, it wasn’t Watergate that nailed Nixon, it was the cover-up. There are WAY too many people involved in this one to keep it secret forever. But along the way, look for people to start killing themselves while cleaning their guns.
Or using the time to "develop" some of the emails from the tapes, which will miraculously exonerate Lerner and the IRS from any and all wrong doing. Watch.
In the meantime....all the lost blah blah blah stories gave them the needed time for the "cleansing".
