Since mainstream media have, almost in their entirety, decided that the IRS\’s actions against groups which the current administration disagrees with, and the actions of lois “liar” lerner, who stated her side of things and then invoked the fifth amendment so no one could question her, are just fine and dandy….
…here are two links from drudgereport.com, which provide information the public should know, but is being withheld by these same mainstream media:
Please note that the first of these links, is an Associated Press article….therefore one available to virtually every mainstream media venue in existence. So if it isn\’t in your newspaper or on your TV news shows, it\’s not for lack of awareness about what it says.
And what does it say? It says that:
Investigators are blaming mistakes by IRS employees – not a criminal conspiracy – for the loss of thousands of emails related to the tax agency\’s tea party scandal.
IRS workers erased 422 computer backup tapes that “most likely” contained as many as 24,000 emails to and from former IRS official Lois Lerner, who has emerged as a central figure in congressional investigations, according to IRS\’s inspector general.
The workers erased the tapes a month after IRS officials discovered that an untold number of Lerner\’s emails were lost. The IG says the workers were unaware of a year-old directive not to destroy email backup tapes.
Isn\’t that nice of AP writer Steve Ohlemacher, to start by assuring us that we shouldn\’t think there was anything suspicious about 422 backup tapes with up to 24,000 emails which could have shed light on what lerner and her pals were up to were erased “a month after IRS officials discovered that an untold number of Lerner\’s emails wer lost…and that they somehow were unaway of a directive that this kind of information could not be destroyed?
I\’m sure the Obama administration, and especially the IRS people, are most appreciative.
Does Ohlemacher, and the administration, think we are complete, brainless idiots?
Apparently they do. And, sad to say, for many they will be correct.
So many scandals, and so many instances of incompetence and ineptitude, have during the Obama years, that it is hard to keep up with them. But this is one of the major ones, so I\’ll try as best I can to keep you informed.
Too bad mainstream media won\’t be doing the same.
