The Obama administration apparently has another email scandal.
As you know, lois “liar” lerner and at least a half dozen of the people around her somehow lost years of emails which could have exonerated or incriminated them in the IRS scandal.
(You\’ll pardon my skepticism, but when one person\’s emails could exonerate or incriminate them are lost, I suspect the emails would have incriminated them: when 6 of them lose the emails, I assume it.)
Well now there is another email scandal – this one concerning an investigation into ObamaCare.
Excerpted from an article at Fox News…but this one is so odoriferous that, as the article points out, even MSNBC has reported it:
Akey ObamaCare official involved in the rocky rollout ofHealthcare.gov likely deleted some of her emails that are now beingsought as part of an investigation into the problems by a Housecommittee, Fox News confirmed Thursday.
TheDepartment of Health and Human Services informed House Oversight andGovernment Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa in a letterThursday that some of the emails belonging to Marilyn Tavenner, wholeads the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, may not be”retrievable.”
Themissing emails belonging to Tavenner, whose agency runs the ObamaCareexchanges, were first reported by msnbc.com.
Issa,whose committee is also dealing with a missing email problem in itsprobe into the IRS\’ targeting of conservative groups, said it”defies logic” that multiple Obama administration officials are”ignoring” federal rules on records-keeping.
“Yetagain, we discover that this administration will not be forthrightwith the American people unless cornered,” he said.
The HHSdiscovered the missing emails when gathering documents to comply witha subpoena issued by the House Oversight and Government ReformCommittee last year, as part of its investigation into the problemswith the rollout of Healthcare.gov.
Unbelievable? Well, it depends on how you use the word:
-If you mean it is unbelievable that another agency in the Obama Administration has somehow “lost” emails that would have been used in an investigation, that – sad to say – is perfectly believable;
-If you mean that the Obama administration itself is unbelievable, as in you can\’t believe what comes out of it, that – even sadder to say – is also perfectly believable.
I count the days until this administration leaves office.
