I watched this committee meeting last night, the arrogance of this guy was astounding, as well as the democrat questioners, I've said it before and will say it again, this investigation as it stands now, is going nowhere, just a continuing circus dog and pony show.
Koskinen looks like he’a about 65 years old. That means he is likely to live about another ten years, about as long as your typical hard drive.
One of the Congressmen should ask him if he went to a high school reunion and was standing around with ten other 65-year-old men and six of them suddenly dropped dead, if he would consider that evidence of criminal activity.
That guy has a pardon tucked safely in his home safe. His condescending attitude while lying through his teeth is just breathtaking. But you are right, this investigation is going nowhere. The stone wall is 300 feet high.
“No laws were broken.” Well, that’s it then I guess (Rino response).
The dog ate my homework or pissed on my harddrive for adults. Geeze.
Spammin your thread.
This morning’s IRS hearing is live now. White House attorney and an archivist from the National Archives and Records Administration to testify.

And, what if I say I break no laws by refusing to send the IRS money?
If the Republicans don’t use videos of this disgusting creep in their campaign ads in 2016, Mitt Romney or Jeb Bush must be running. After all, these two softy “moderates” would think it unsporting to embarrass Hillary by playing this creep’s testimony defending open destruction of IRS records to save Obama’s hide.
this investigation as it stands now, is going nowhere, just a continuing circus dog and pony show.

One standout: Trey Gowdy “destroyed” him on the ‘no evidence of crime’. He asked this weasel what criminal statutes he’s reviewed to make that determination & the answer was ‘none’. If you don’t know what constitutes a ‘crime’ under the statutes, you can’t determine whether or not one occurred. He also got Koskinen to separate what Lois may/may not have done from the issue of producing her emails. K admitted he meant no wrongdoing in the process of producing emails - he had never met Lerner and was not saying that her actions weren’t criminal. Gowdy was just plain awesome - the folks appearing before his Benghazi commission (those that have something to worry about) had better be prepared & wear some Depends .... I’m sure they’re already shaking in their boots. Gowdy will shred them.
Of course, about the time Gowdy really got going with this arrogant Obamabot (major donor), his time ran out.
Grand Jury time.
Quite frankly we should supeona Harry Reid’s email records from 2011. Isn’t he the one that was all up in Romney’s tax records with blatant assertions of misconduct?
Who were the other democrats at the time whining about the Tea Party? I think there were 13 of them...
Harry Reid
Bruce Braley
Gary Peters
If we can’t find dear Ms. Lerner’s emails...then we need to request those who had correspondence with her to cough them up. Email is at least, at least, a two way communication.
The Wheels of Justice grind slowly, so Obama will be gone before this gets resolved. I just hope that his successor doesn’t ‘end’ the prosecution by pardoning all those key participants in the obstruction of Justice. That just keeps the political game of tag going, and the faith in governance just keep going down the tubes. The Media moans about it, but they are part & parcel of it as an arm of the Democrat Party.
That clown gives me the creeps.
An arrogant, defiant, old bastard willing to lie for the boss and the furtherance of marxism.
He's 74. :-)
Somewhere, either in statute or federal regulation, there is a requirement for retaining computer data. Anyone know where it is, or how long it is?
Wow!
Apparently, Smug is a preservative...
After Reagan's unexpected landslide in 1980, even the jackass party didn't want to be seen as siding with the IRS. They wanted just a dog and pony show but Congressman Hansen would not let go. We got a number of meaningful reforms out of those hearings including a Taxpayer's Bill of Rights all because of one congressman with backbone.
The IRS got their revenge on him a few years later when he was narrowly defeated for re-election and jailed on some totally bogus campaign charges finally overturned in 1995.
Congress critters are afraid of becoming the next George Hansen. They know that simply curbing the IRS has its limits. The agency really needs to be broken up. Preferably in a million pieces.
