A Bold Face Lie re lost emails. What a crock!

Hello Eudaimonia,
I can see it now..."Yes IRS agent, I should not be held accountable for the last two years of taxes I owe since I have lost those records..." as they march me off to Leavenworth... "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others."- Orwell
Verum improbus!
O.A.

Government agencies must be apolitical. Part of their mandate must be that they immediately vet any request of a political nature and make the information public. That applies to any administration.

How do you like these people? They pass off the biggest of lies with the smallest of phrases. The committee investigating the IRS scandal needs to throw each person that testifies with these kinds of lies into jail, and keep doing so until somebody chokes up the truth.

You want to know what else is absolutely beyond the pale - even though Lerner has "retired" she is still getting a healthy "retirement" salary of more than 1/4 million a year!

You just can't make this stuff up.

Not suprised at all. If you wrote this into a AS: Now Non-Fiction script, they wouldn't believe it.

Businesses are required by law to keep internal emails for some period of time. Yet the IRS utterly failed to conduct itself in a business like manner? No email system I have ever seen stores email only on the user's own computer. This is clearly an utter lie.
