Live link to today's 7:00Est congressional hearing with IRS commissioner
http://www.c-span.org/video/?320097-1/irs-targeting-investigation
Issa questioning Koskinen. Koskinen blames lack of funding for failure to keep all emails. Says he told no one when he learned in April of problems retrieving Lerner’s emails. Says he did not have anyone inform anyone else in government of problem.
Gets snarky with Issa. Issa times runs out as he says he’s losing patience with Koskinen
The Rats are blaming BUSH and GOPe for limited resources, no money etc. Had to take $300M out and didn’t get any more $ from CONGROSS!!
Koskinen provided an "it depends on what the meaning of is, is" moment. He promised to provide all the emails that he had. He couldn't provide those that were missing. LOL. No wonder Issa has lost patience with him.
I think we did hear that. Glad to know that the IRS only expects us to keep OUR data for TWO (2) years, just like them.
If they weren’t in the business of giving a LOT of fraudulent refunds away to a sizable portion of Mexico and criminal Americans, they’d “have the money for IT”.
Anyone know what Issa was talking about when he started questioning this guy? Something about some guy named Beva?????
Cummings is lost in the weeds on that one. The CI of the IRS probably took a sledge hammer to that hard drive.
Maybe Snowden has the emails.
Koskinen is a pro from his days with Freddie Mac.
He pretends he doesn’t understand the questions or answers questions that weren’t asked.
I’m with you there but am going back to listening to Mark Levin.
He won’t lie to me and will give me info I will want to hear and not this stupid stuff.
Koskinen says something like “if you have a magical wand to get them back.” Oh, my. What a lob ball that was. Issa should have hit that one out of the park.
I get the feeling he wants to break out in giggles.
Even with a sledge hammer they are recoverable. That’s why there is no record of what happened to it.
I did not follow that at all.
Now we are back to rehashing the damned history.
Damit: We’re running out of time!!
Mica is useless! Get someone who can get to the bottom of this!!
Issa? Issa hearings are always a farce
The left only wants justice if it helps THEM..liberals love the fact that Conservatives got screwed over, they would be screaming like crazy if it happened to them..that is why I say karma is a well, ya know..I just hope that one day, if a Republican becomes President, we do the same thing back to them..that to me would be great justice and also great karma..they laugh now but just you watch when its done to them
Mica is clueless. He is stumbling and repeating everything we already know.
This is simple. The GOP has no ability to fight back. Lee Atwater died and we lost our balls.
He lost his smirk. Maybe Issa is letting him know they have more than he thinks.
