Don't waste your tears Rocky :giggle1: Boy-George ain't no hero of mine_

Him and the rest of the Bush political dynasty are a bit too far left for me_

Establishment republican politicians are more aligned with your camp than mine_

Ignore the past, when it's inconvenient. We have to pretend that Obama invented everything bad that ever happened.

No; you just have to learn to place blame where it belongs_

Personally I need to see what was so damaging in the 24,000 emails first and foremost before I worry about another bunch of emails. And let's face it, there isn't much to this scandal other then RW blathering with a victim complex.

Wow__You really don't get it; do you?!

There is nothing damaging in the 24,000 emails they sent_

The damaging stuff was in the emails they destroyed_

This isn't rocket surgery mister peabody! :giggle1:

If it was a conspiracy, why hasn't someone come forward, I would think immunity would be fair for them....

Right, that's why you had to run in with "He's not President anymore" instead of admitting that he's guilty of the same thing.

No; you just have to learn to place blame where it belongs_

I thought I made it clear - Obama's administration is to blame for this one. However, it's not like convenient loss of evidence is something they invented. It's what I've sadly come to expect from politicians.

Conspiracy!!! Oh please; gimme a break!

I thought a "conspiracy" would require a certain element of elaborance and sophistication_

This was obviously some fly by night scheme cooked up by people who gave little thought to getting caught_

Someone like Obama who banks on a friendly supportive Main Stream Media that he knows will bury his bad press_

The Obama Campaign wanted it's Tea Party enemies out of the equation which the IRS made happen for two entire election cycles_

And just as the Obama Administration figured; the only ones that are seriously reporting the scandal is AM Radio and Fox News_

This IRS scandal is exactly what it appears to be and only a fool could possibly believe the redicuious lies and obvious coverup_

This is text-book Chicago style political corruption at it's very worst and should disgust every American regardless of politics!

I don't think we need to pretend that Obama invented everything bad that ever happened but why shouldn't he be held accountable when his administration does something wrong, especially when it does something illegal? The IRS shouldn't be a tool to use for political gain and any Republican should be held just as accountable.

He is to be held responsible here. Just as Bush should have been for the "lost" Scooter Libby e-mails.

I just don't understand why every response of yours has to feature some variation on "well, Bush ..."

I am saying why hasn't anyone else come forward about this... You would think the GOP would want more then just Lois Lerner. I would also refer you to the legal defination of what conspiracy means...

This whole "lost email" thing reminded me of the exact same thing that happened back then. My point was that I didn't believe it then anymore then than I do now.

Why should bringing up historical context be out of bounds?

It just seems to me anytime I see a thread about something Pres. Obama or a Democrat has done wrong there is inevitably a post from you with "but, Bush ..." or "but, Republicans ...". You seem to very openly hate Pres. Bush specifically and Republicans in general but the vague reasons you give for hating them are always pushed aside whenever Pres. Obama or Democrats do exactly the same thing.

So did you include this George W Bush email incident to hopefully minimize the IRS scandal?

I asked because I see people on the left do this quite often___In fact it's rather routine_

Would I be correct in assuming that you don't view this IRS/Lerner scandal as being very scandalous?

No I never align with corrupt politicians, especially corrupt Presidential Administrations; nor do I make excuses for them_

I have no political loyalties___Zero/Zip/Nota!

It has nothing to do with minimizing
Conservative after people in the actual Bush administration "lost" tons of emails and were found to be using RNC email "No biggie"
Conservatives after Lerner who has nothing to do with Obama other than both being part of the Federal Government lost emails "it proves Obama was behind it all!!!"
 
Here's what I would like to see: "Mr/Mrs Current Head of the IRS. You have ten days to produce these lost e-mails, or else you will be held in contempt and placed in jail."

What'cha wanna bet they magically show up?
