The House Ways and Means Committee will vote this week to formally ask the Justice Department to pursue criminal charges against former IRS employee Lois Lerner, an official at the center of Republican probes of the matter. The committee will mark up a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder on Wednesday accusing Lerner of committing three crimes relating to the IRS’s targeting of conservative groups seeking tax exempt status, a Republican staffer said.

This action is separate of plans from House Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa to hold a contempt vote against the former exempt organizations division head on Thursday.

Holder will do nothing, and this is how you know others are involved up the line...

I want Holder charged for conduct unbecoming an American citizen as well as being a traitor.

How can we accomplish this?

Pitchforks, tar, feathers, rail, citizen mob. But not even that would work, because anyone and everyone who tried to organize it would be locked away without due process by the NSA or HSA or any number of other unnecessarily armed and overly powerful agencies. Or droned.

One arm of the government will never hold another arm of the government accountable in any meaningful way, especially if they're of the same party. Why? They know they don't have to. Why don't they have to? Because they know we can't do a thing about it no matter how much noise we make.

Face it, as ordinary citizens we're stuck and bleeding out. It is getting to the point that we have no freedom or power that the political elite doesn't deign to bestow upon us in return for votes, largesse from the coffers, or simply to flaunt their might.

They can tell us what to buy, when to buy it, and that we must buy it, all under color of law.

They can track our movements, our communications, our entire lives, and can bring the power of the IRS, the EPA, the Department of Education---you name the agency---to bear should we live them in a way they deem unsuitable.

Ah, hell, I'm going to bed. This post may never end if I don't.
