Looks like hard drive crashes are contagious, spread from IRS to EPA

The EPA has been stone-walling Congress for years about some of their e-mails, including attempts to shut down mining in Alaska.

When asked about the e-mails of former EPA official Phillip North, the agency claims that they were lost in a 2010 hard drive crash, which was the timeframe of the investigation, and the e-mails were not backed up.


Even Rex and VB have to admit they're getting pretty ballsy with this stuff.

The complete and utter lack of even caring about the appearance of it all is getting shocking even for my jaded self.

We need to all call our congressmen and women and tell them to co-sponsor and/or support "The Dog Ate My Tax Return Act" as introduced by Rep. Stockman (R-TX-36)

They don't give a shite. As long as they delay any semblance of justice until the public is no longer interested, they have achieved their objectives. The end always justifies the means with liberal progressives.

This reminds me of Monday night when that frickwad Koskinen tried telling the engineer from MIT that he did probability wrong.

It was a laugh riot.

I guess they re-created that incident from Be Kind Rewind where Jack Black got magnetized and then sent him to every government agency to talk to these people.

Because that's a more plausible story than anything these fricking shitbags have said so far.

Obama said the sequester would have unintended consequences.

And I reckon they believe that the 'end' will be "fundamental change" and one big happy Authoritarian Socialist family?Yeaahhh!

If and opponent in a boxing match keeps hitting below the belt, and the ref don't step in and enforce the agreed upon rules...what happens?

The precedents that the Progs are setting will be the ones used against them, when it all goes rogue. Sew the wind...!!

I don't even know what to say to this shite. I'm just amazed at the lack of credibility and the audacity of it all.

It makes me think of this patient I had that accussed one of my staff of going into the patient's room and beating him. Everything is on video and does NOT get erased. I told the patient that I thought he was lying and that everything was on video. He just stared at me and said "look at the video. It's there!"

Well, we reviewed it all and there was nothing at all there. Sociopaths do what they do.

I would like to add that the frickwad was too dumb to even note that his counter the congressman would also counter his original assertion in that, he asserted 3-5% chance in a year but THEN, tries to say that changing the time frame doesn't change the probability.

Hence, according to that idiot, the probability of a hard drive crashing in a year is equal to the probability of it crashing in 10 years.

I don't know about this particular incident but my wife pointed out something last night I thought was interesting. The fact that they would rather be seen as completely incompetent rather than have the content of their emails come to light ....that says a lot.

BTW, i want to say how reasonable you have been on this ridiculousness about the emails. It's refreshing.

I actually think it's more than that. I'm just cynical enough to wonder exactly why he is so fricking bad at lying? I mean, there's not a soul on either side who can't tell easily that this dude is full of shite.

When you parade a dude THAT BAD at lying, you make me come to the conclusion that you WANT me to know your administration is lying and you want to basically give everyone a giant "frick you, the attorney general aint gonna do shite" look.

Really. At this point. I think they've come to the conclusion that they can go Hugo Chavez and stop even the pretense that they aren't corrupt because they can't be stopped. And, sadly they're right.

This has been a theme, the Obama heard about it on the news meme exists for a reason.
