They "say" the tapes are overwritten after 6 months. I suspect that is not the entire story. They are probably overwritten, but a backup is likely archived at least semi-annually.

Keeping 6 months of data is not "disaster recovery". If a disaster happened and all you could recover was the past half a year....you still have a disaster.

Horsford trying to frame that 41 witnesses have stated no evidence of a criminal conspiracy involving the White House.

Then why did Lerner take the Fifth?

[John S Mosby]

The IRS commissioner has the mental faculties and emotional characteristics of a ticket agent for a 3rd world airline, or better train system.

Bureaucrat with a botox face, who has most likely raked off many payoffs in his days at Fannie. A pro obfuscator and qualifier. Parsing all the time.

Caught that and wished I could replay K's remarks (btw-K would be perfect in a production of The Castle by Kafka!).

Sure would help to have a transcript!

JAIL HER TOMORROW but BOEHNER has already said they, the GOP “leadership” will not do it.

[nhwingut]

My mouth is still open from him saying they had all her emails but the tape was too complicated. Thats the headline. They are toast.

[don-o]

Wait a minute. Wasn’t Obama outraged about this?

[Ray76]

So in that six month span Lerner’s replacement disk had ALL data fully restored - EXCEPT for these certain emails?

[Red Steel]

Horsford-D speaking right now spewing nothing to see here, and he uses old cliches. His district in Vegas, a new district I believe, was also likely gerrymandered by a butcher.

[Solson]

Subpoena ALL EMAILS FROM THE IRS during that time.

[maggief]

Issa brings up bonuses.

[Solson]

Horsford get’s his mic cut off! LOL

[RitaOK]

Oh, yes! It should have been an, “Oh s#/”! moment for him.

Instead, it was, “Job well done!”.

[jacquej]

Yep, and now they want even more money from us, so they can more efficiently target those who hold opinions that are out of favor with the present ruling party.

Actually, we should cut their budget to the bone, and crash all of their hard drives, then demand that they prove us guilty, rather than the other way around.

rant off, for now.

[Solson]

Nice - they nail the Bonus into the record.

[nhwingut]

Exactly. A six month tape is simply a retention policy. Its a simple backup. Disaster recovery is far different.

[Norm Lenhart]

Bhoner, Issa and every POS there could have her arrested right now. And this guy. and the rest. They have the authority and refuse to use it. That is all one needs to know.
