i am just pointing out that no case where a person was held in contempt of congress after pleading the fifth was successfully convicted.
WHY are you pointing it out ?
Seems your'e pretty satisfied in knowing that the Republicans are powerless, even when the evidence shows innocent Americans had their civil rights violated BY THE PRESIDENT AND HIS PARTY.
Not by a group, or activist or a single Liberal. By our GOVERNMENT
Like I said you Libs are ok with this and thats fine. Its what we Conservatives expected.
But dont think for a minute that this is going away. It will be a steady stream of incriminating proof that will define this administrations and the Democrat parties legacy for years to come.
And thats on top of their miserable economic failure.
He's "powerful" ??
How ? His power comes from manipulating the dumbest among the electorate and then lying and obfuscating to cover for his incompetence.
There's no power in any of that, just a guarantee of failure.
woweowowoowozzaaa.....its OVER...
Obama and the Libs is going down...
Ways and Means Committee Refers Lois Lerner to Department of Justice for Criminal Prosecution | House Committee on Ways & Means
Washington, DC – Today, House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Dave Camp (R-MI) announced that the Committee, acting under its authority granted in Sec. 6103 of the Internal Revenue Code, voted out a criminal referral letter to Department of Justice (DOJ) Attorney General Eric Holder regarding actions taken by IRS employee Lois Lerner. Chairman Camp, in sending the letter on behalf of the Committee, urged Holder to take a serious review of the evidence uncovered through the Committee’s investigation to determine whether Lerner violated criminal statutes.
The Committee uncovered three specific acts undertaken by Lerner that may have violated one or more criminal statutes documented in the letter:
•Lerner used her position to improperly influence agency action against only conservative organizations, denying these groups due process and equal protection rights under the law. She showed extreme bias and prejudice towards conservative groups. The letter lays out evidence on how Lerner targeted conservative organization Crossroads GPS as well as other right-leaning groups, while turning a blind eye to similarly-organized liberal groups, like Priorities USA.
•Lerner impeded official investigations by providing misleading statements in response to questions from the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA).
•Lerner risked exposing, and may actually have disclosed, confidential taxpayer information, in apparent violation of Internal Revenue Code section 6103 by using her personal email to conduct official business.
If convicted of these crimes, Lerner could face up to 11 years in prison.

This is a fine example of the absurdity created by Issa's attempt to charge the Administration with attacking conservative political groups. A year after this whole mess began there is still zero evidence that any conservative groups were penalised despite blatant violations of the tax codes governing non-profit groups.
It's far from over. Do you really think that Holder is going to investigate? If he does investigate do you really think he's going to find anything?
I have no doubt whatsoever that there was (perhaps still is) targeting based on political ideology but I'm equally certain that nobody will be hooked up for it.
Would kinda explain why Cummings has been trying so hard to make this investigation go away.

So here is the thing......Issa has lied and has acted like a talk radio host more than a member of Congress.
He is quite clearly manipulating you...as well as the majority of the GOP base.
Seriously what are we doing to gain anything...all effort seems to be directed at damaging them.
We need to stand for SOMETHING....instead of against everything.

Please run on this for the next seven months.This is how Obama won relection.. this is CRIMINAL... IMPEACH NOW
So Issa wants to eliminate the only person with the ability to call his witch hunt for what it is and the power to do anything about it. Interesting.
Cummings attacked true the vote on the word of the most consummate liar in the IRS probe, I$$$A.
Obama should be impeached.
Please run on this for the next seven months.
The real crime will come out.
The felonious fraud of Reich-wing TEA groups claiming 501c-4 .

well lib media wont touch this and blame GWB..LOL
witchunt?... you mean the most illegal act in the name of rigging an election in modern history?... after the Tea Party romped at the mid terms and Dems had to break the law to get their Trojan Horse of Socialism and Marxism re-elected at all cost...
to you thats a "witchhunt"... did Issa set them up...LOL...
I laugh... who you trying to BS?..
If Holder, Cumming and Obama all whine"racism" at once.. is that all it takes?..
Your opinion is noted and disregarded in favor of the truth.The IRS "scandal" is a bunch of made-up nonsense.
The IRS "scandal" is a bunch of made-up nonsense.
When Did Issa " lie " ? And maybe the IRS should PROVE that these 501c groups are committing crimes, instead of targeting them and then lying about it.
The IRS "scandal" is a bunch of made-up nonsense.
IRS agents’ testimony: NO progressive groups were targeted by IRSIRS agents testified before Congress that the agency’s political targeting did not apply to progressive groups as Democrats and the media have claimed, according to a bombshell new staff report prepared by the House Oversight Committee chairman, Rep. Darrell Issa.
IRS agents testified before Oversight that ACORN groups were scrutinized because the agency thought they were old organizations applying as new ones. Emerge America was scrutinized for potential “improper private benefit.” No evidence exists that the IRS requested additional information from any Occupy Wall Street group.
“Only seven applications in the IRS backlog contained the word ‘progressive,’ all of which were then approved by the IRS, while Tea Party groups received unprecedented review and experienced years-long delays. While some liberal-oriented groups were singled out for scrutiny, evidence shows it was due to non-political reasons,” according to the Oversight staff report, which was obtained by The Daily Caller.
