I agree, and there's probably an email somewhere out there stating something to that effect.

If there was a huge conspiracy, there is evidence somewhere other than Lois Lerners emails.
You know what is going on behind the scenes?

Issa said at the last testimony of the IRS Commissioner that they had interviewed the IRS CIO. Chief Information Officer is the one in charge of IT.

In any case, its standard procedure. They almost always interview people behind the scenes. They interviewed all the other IRS employees who testified before they testified and alluded to that in the hearings where testimony was taken.

Nothing new. How they always do it.

Koskinen is a man who is held in high regard by people who know him( both Democrats and Republicans) for years. Two presidents from different parties have tapped him for high profile difficult work.
Only 5 R Senators voted to confirm him. He has a lifetime of working for and contributing to D candidates, including Obama.

He'll be as minimally cooperative as possible, just as a Republican would be with a Democratic investigation.

A close adviser to Hillary Clinton agrees with Republicans that it’s time for an independent prosecutor to investigate alleged IRS targeting of conservative groups and missing e-mails.

Lanny Davis who was a counselor to President Bill Clinton said the IRS needs intense scrutiny from an outside investigator.

“There’s no Democrat that I know of that wouldn’t be asking a Republican administration to conduct an independent investigation” if Republicans were in charge, Davis said Friday."

Your quote does not support your statement. He says nothing about an independent prosecutor.

Why don't you cite the source so we can follow what was actually said without it being misinterpreted.

What has that to do with a Hilary operative requesting an independent prosecutor?

Sorry but that is not what you cited. You apparently have a screwed up cite.

Note the highlighted word. Than look at the post which started this. See the difference or do I have to spell it out for you completely?

The deliberate misquote is particularly breath taking in that Davis specifically say no to a special prosecutor.
