just 5 democrats out of the whole House voted to hold Lerner in contempt. shows you the threat is the democrat party
all democrats voted for Obamacare. 100% of democrat senators and congressmen voted for Obamacre
Democrat President Woodrow wilson in 1913 gave us the income tax,16th ammendment, 17 amendment , federal reserve, and a million other horrors with his DEMOCRAT Congress:

democrat President Obama pushed for Obamacare, ordered the IRS to rig the election by keeping conservatives from forming, ordered the BLM to attack mr Bundy, issued many unconstitutional executive orders etc.
the news media are democrats and have hidden all this tyranny even in Wilson's time from the American people

Democrat President Woodrow wilson in 1913 gave us the income tax,16th amendment, 17th amendment (turned USA from a free republic into a quasi socialist state), federal reserve, and a million other horrors with his DEMOCRAT Congress. This socialist monster Wilson actually created the world we are in with this huge government ever growing , proof is as the link following. but many even on here say every problem is Bush's fault or the Republicans' fault:

and I'll eat my hat if Obama did not give a direct order to Lerner or others at the IRS to oppress conservatives

Lerner declared her innocence, denied wrong doing, and then refused to testify on the grounds it might incriminate her. If you believe her statement that she is innocent, then Lerner has no grounds for taking the 5th. If you believe she needs to take the 5th, then she lied about her innocence.
One way or the other, Lois Lerner lied to a Congressional Committee and is in contempt.
To: jazusamo
Expecting the Justice Dept to prosecute is asinine to the extreme

You’re likely right. A while ago J. Christian Adams was on the Megyn Kelly show and said there’d be a lot of lawyers at DOJ coming up with reasons not to prosecute, he said Holder’s lawyers are good at that.

The 231 to 187 vote, which attracted just 5 Democrats Had the Democrats been in the majority and gotten five Republican votes, the media would term it "bi-partisan".
So that is what this is. A bi-partisan vote.

She has nothing to worry about - she's already had her pow wow with holder.
they can hold her in contempt but that's all they can do. It's then up to the Atty Gen’l to take action - He will not -

The 231 to 187 vote, which attracted just 5 Democrats If the parties were reversed, this would have been lauded as a "bipartisan" measure showing just how serious the matter is.

They also don’t have a track record of assigning the likes of Trey Gowdy to chair a committee like this, with wide leeway to do what must be done to get at the truth. For many months, we’ve been calling on the GOP to go after the this administration on Benghazi... and they’re doing it. How about we give credit where it’s due?
