Hopefully someone with a conscience will come forward with what they know.

Lookie here, more connections between Obama, his campaign, and illegal activity by the IRS.

The IRS illegally gave information about a conservative non-profit to a liberal group. That liberal group posted the illegally obtained info on their website. The day after they posted it, the head of the liberal group became a co-chairman of Obama's re-election campaign:

I'm sure they are scared. The Obama admin goes after whistle blowers with a vengeance.

A story today in the HuffPo:

Quote:
The Obama administration’s attacks on whistleblowers are well documented. It has charged more of them -- seven -- under the Espionage Act than all past presidencies combined. In addition, it recently pressured State Department whistleblower Stephen Kim into a guilty plea (in return for a lighter sentence) by threatening him with the full force of that act. His case was even more controversial because the FBI named Fox News’s James Rosen as a co-conspirator for receiving information from Kim as part of his job as a journalist. None of this is accidental, coincidental, or haphazard. It’s a pattern. And it’s meant to be. This is war.

Sadly, if they do, they may get the Snowden treatment.

Nice deflection. I am interested in what happened. I am uninterested in the specific employee(s) who told the IRS Commissioner they identified a problem with the Lerner emails.

What would that tell us? Can someone please articulate what you think that would tell you? IMO it adds nothing to the investigation one way or the other.

I will never vote for Hillary lol. She's more dangerous than Obama imo.

Eventually that is what usually happens if they stay on it long enough. But normally its someone thru attorney makes a deal to testify.
