If it is correct that Lerner waived her 5th amendment right to remain silent by at first pleading her innocence, then she’s probably not too pleased with the legal advice she received from the lawyer she brought with her.

I wonder the answer is clear cut?

Even Congressman Issa, normally a very sharp and prepared operator, had to check on whether Gowdy’s interpretation applied.

I'm not a lawyer, but the minute she started pleading her innocence, I was yelling at the television, "That's not pleading the fifth! That's testifying! She can't plead the fifth now!"

Anybody with a television-watching, psuedo law degree knows that.

I wonder what her counsel said to her after Gowdy made his point? Wish I could read lips. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zjoScJeZrPA

Throw her in prison until she implicates b@rry and h0lder, and then leave her in prison with them joining her.

Trey Gowdy for President. If not, Trey Gowdy for Attorney General. I love that guy! Finally, a politician who actually shows passion for the truth and the rule of law.

How do you invoke the protection against self-incrimination if you “didn’t do anything wrong”? What’s to incriminate?

Love Trey Gowdy. I’ve been enjoying his refreshing knowledge and to the point accuracy for quite sometime now in these little “dog & pony shows” on Capitol Hill. He needs to be rewarded with a chair position on some powerful committee.

I was listening to the testimony, or lack thereof, on the radio and when Gowdy said what he said, I let go of the steering wheel and clapped and high fived myself.

They described Gowdy very well. If I were picking team members I would not want him on the other side. He is cunning, quick witted and ruthless.

I have not seen enough of him to say I’d vote for him for Pres but he needs to be a spinator.

He and Cruz would be a pair to draw to.

I'd like to see Issa give all GOP interrogation time to Reps. Gowdy and Jordan in future hearings.

Congress should appoint a special prosecutor who can grant immunity and then compel truthful answers. He can go into the WH or start at the bottom in Cincinatti and work his way up.

No point in the politicians grandstanding. They aren’t going to get as far as the special prosecutor would because they don’t have the tools.

She blew it by saying repeatedly she had done nothing wrong. That is giving testimony. That is not taking the fifth.
