At least Dubya wasn't a crook.

This group of Obama, Jarrett, Holder, etc are dirtier than the day is long.

If she did nothing wrong and broke no laws why was it necessary to destroy her Blackberry?

I guess she was trying to get rid of all that pron on her phone.

Its a bit if a stretch to think Obama himself was in on this. I posted in another thread that its likely do to a simple abuse of power as a result of a highly polarized political atmosphere, then people just trying to cover their asses.

Predicted talking points:
She upgraded her phone and it is standard IT procedure to wipe a BB clean


Never mind the fact that there is usually for any organization a backup somewhere except in the IRS where common operating procedures don't exist.

Did no one have the authority to confiscate her Blackberry or her computer at the beginning of the investigation?

"The conflict of interest here is so significant, that you've got the Department of Justice basically investigating itself for activity that they engaged in, which may also be criminal. This whole thing, I call it a faux investigation. These are not real investigations," he said, revealing that one of the DOJ attorneys who is defending the IRS actually worked in Lerner's office and was "part of the targeting."

Am I the only one who noticed we have a McChowder and a DonChowder on here?

No one likes chowder that much.

"The IRS filing in federal Judge Emmet Sullivan’s court reveals shocking new information. The IRS destroyed Lerner’s Blackberry AFTER it knew her computer had crashed and after a Congressional inquiry was well underway. As an IRS official declared under the penalty of perjury, the destroyed Blackberry would have contained the same emails (both sent and received) as Lois Lerner’s hard drive."

"With incredible disregard for the law and the Congressional inquiry, the IRS admits that this Blackberry “was removed or wiped clean of any sensitive or proprietary information and removed as scrap for disposal in June 2012.”

"The IRS did not even attempt to retrieve that data. It cavalierly recites: “There is no record of any attempt by any IRS IT employee to recover data from any Blackberry device assigned to Lois Lerner in response to the Congressional investigations or this investigation,” according to Stephen Manning, Deputy Chief Information Officer for Strategy & Modernization."

Don’t be surprised if Judge Sullivan decides it’s time to order production of everything on that Blackberry, issue subpoenas to third party servers including Blackberry for the dates covered by the Blackberry the IRS destroyed, unleash Judge Facciola, allow Judicial Watch more discovery, prohibit the IRS from destroying anything else, and start a list of lawyers who would make a good special prosecutor.


The proverbial sh*t would hit the fan if this happens Unless of course they are complicit
