Scandal: One of the seven people, including Lois Lerner who lost emails from the period of Tea Party targeting by the IRS, served as chief of staff to former IRS head Steven Miller. She also made 35 visits to the White House.
The funny thing about emails is that they are never orphans. When you send one, there's always a recipient who has his or her own copy. The "lost" Lois Lerner emails had recipients. How about subpoenas to all of them during the Tea Party targeting period? That should help find what we need to know or maybe not.
It seems six more IRS officials have lost critical emails from that period, a seeming statistical impossibility that shouts out a conspiracy to obstruct justice, and more violations of the Federal Records Act, which requires paper copies of these emails to be printed and stored just in case of computer problems.
One of those officials who received Lerner emails and also lost them was Nikole Flax, chief of staff to former IRS Commissioner Steven Miller. Miller, who was fired in the wake of the targeting scandal, visited the White House more than most Cabinet members.

I agree that it’s a delay tactic, among other things.
My major point is that they goofed in claiming a TWO YEAR time period. The longest period that ANYONE at IRS can reasonably lose data is SIX MONTHS and not two years.

Take a look at this link to the
IRS website listing the rules governing handling and storage of emails. Why aren't Republicans like Ryan and Gowdy hitting the IRS illegitimate sodomizers with subpoenas and demanding to know how they can make such specious claims as though the wayward emails were lost due to one hard-drive crash? What the he!! is the matter with people?

Best to wait until the IRS criminals testify (lie) under oath... then ‘find’ the lost emails... Easy jail time...

I think Nobama mis-spoked when he said “not a smidgeon of corruption”. I think what he really meant was “not a smidgeon of evidence of corruption”
