You know she can play a trial out with a little help from her friends. Then in Jan 2017 she gets pardoned. Delaying now just means less time served.

Sen. Harry Reid just made a throat slicing gesture after @KerryPicket asked him about Lois Lerner

[Political Junkie Too]

That was Old School. This is New School.

Indict her for perjury.

Let her come crawling to the committee pleading to make a deal.

How many of Pres. Nixon's staff, aides and associates went to jail for Perjury and Obstruction of Justice?

Indict the b!tch.

“misled?”
LYING!

Not from the Obama Administration!

I mean he promised that we could keep our medical insurance policy. Susan Rice said the Ambassador was murdered because of the internet movie. Obama told the World that Syria dare not cross that “red line.” Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah.......

The Administration of the Big Zero is going to go down in history as corrupt, dishonest and ineffective. They will do much to make Jimmy Carter look like a good effective President.

Sad thing is that many of the establishment republicans probably like/liked the fact that the TEA party groups were targeted. This is why nothing has been done about it. They were probably in on it as much as Obama.

I’m not understanding why the IRS is still open for business.

American citizens fear its use against them as political retaliation. It’s so corrupted that Lois Lerner refuses to testify.

Mitchel, Haldman, Ehrlichmann and Colson went to the cooler.

That'd be like Holder, Jarret and two other Whitehouse advisors putting on jump suits.

What in the hell has Issa so frightened of charging Lerner with contempt? This isn’t difficult here... either charge her forthwith or offer her an immunity deal that catches a bigger fish.

As I said earlier: Issa and his band of Keystone Kops rejects are about as useful as tits on a goose.

“The Supreme Court dealt a huge blow, overturning a 100-year old precedent that basically corporations couldn't give directly to political campaigns,” Lerner wrote. “And everyone is up in arms because they don't like it. The Federal Election Commission can't do anything about it. They want the IRS to fix the problem.”

Ultimately, the visceral hatred and gnashing of teeth over Citizens United is what this all boils down to. Yes, Lerner and Obama hate conservatives too but the larger issue is the Court ruling.

“misled”, eh? My mother used to call it LYING.

Yep, and when it's 'under oath' my mom called it perjury.

Hey! So did mine!

You don’t suppose our moms went to different schools together, do you?
