Hating the IRS

Freepers' hate of taxes is not super high up on their huge list of things they hate. Sure, they hate it and rail against it, but without a person to truly focus all their hate on, Freepers can't really get incandescent. Enter Lois Lerner. At the nexus of the IRS and Obama, she is the Freeper hate-goat of the moment.

methodic_progression thinks Issa needs more showmanship:
Watching Issa, I see absolutely no passion in him. It’s like he is just reciting questions he thinks the people want him to ask, but without any conviction. Emotions are one of the most effective tools in a prosecutors arsenal and can go a long way in swaying opinion. Obviously, you want facts, but if the defendant isn’t giving them up, that’s no reason to just let them waltz out freely without at least tearing them a new one. I agree that Gowdy should be running this show.
CivilWarBrewing thinks Democrats are all showmanship:
What happened during Hillary's Benghazi hearing? HILLARY HAD AN OUTBURST "WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE?!!!"

What happened during Lerner's IRS hearing? ELIJAH CUMMINGS HAD AN OUTBURST, BLAMING REPUBLICANS!!!!

The GUILTY Dems really know how to grab the headlines by engaging in 'Diversionary Tactics 101'. Notice how Lerner stuck around during Cummings' outburst instead of leaving? That was the plan all along.

When you're GUILTY, have an OUTBURST!!!
hondact200 does not lack passion:
just lock the whore up. stop paying her useless retirement. Gee these idiots in DC are so stupid. be done with the whole thing arrest them all and waterboard them already.
867V309 knows it's not that the scandals are nothinburgers...it's all Issa's fault!
Issa: Where scandals go to die.
Cheerio knows why:
NEVE HAPPEN. BONER IS BEING BLACKMAILED JUST LIKE ROBERTS, THANKS TO CLOWN’S NSA.
leapfrog0202 adds no 5th Amendment rights to not voting and all sorts of other things government workers shouldn't get:
Next week? Today’s Wednesday, how about Wednesday? She belongs in jail now.

IMO if you work for the government and you are asked about something to do with your job, you should not be allowed to take the 5th.
What the crap is Rome2000 talking about?
Issa is currently a LAUGHING STOCK amongst those of us "Regular" American citizens who care about the DC apparatchik war on the right.

He's pissing off the Pope.
MtnClimber councils "leftist tactics," by which he means torture:
Testimony to Issa would be the easy way. An angry citizen, unhappy with the way their taxes are spent may grab her and impose more leftist tactics to make her sing like a canary. Myself, I would not hold back at the incremental increase in force against this certain criminal communist. The muslims that Zero worships know how to do head chopping. Is turnabout not fair play?

    Playing devil's advocate here ...

    leapfrog0202 does have a point about employees of government bureaucracies being able to avoid answering congress ... whether through "pleading the 5th" or otherwise.

    Whether it's the IRS, or the CIA, or the NSA, there should be some amount of required cooperation.

      On the other hand, just because you work for the government doesn't mean you relinquish your constitutional rights.

      The truth is, this is political theatre--like most of Issa's "investigations"--and Lerner's not playing.

      All they have to do is give her immunity and she has to talk. But it takes two to tango...

      M has a point. Searching Google News for her name, the first post is by Rush LimBAWWWW. Most of the articles are by right-wing talking heads on blogs (Daily Caller, Town Hall, etc)

      Of course, to FR, that's just confirmation of the MSM agenda.

    Can't wait to see the freepers hate on Obama's 'interview' with Zach Galifianakis. (Didn't think it was that funny myself, but I know their reactions will be.)

      It must be sad to not have a sense of humor.

    The dim bulbs over at Free Republic like to play at being Mad Maxx. The feds want hospitals to improve their disaster plans. Fine. Probably a good idea. But in Freeperville, it's a cue to let their imaginations wander.

    "Think about it. Hospitals have water, food, power, drugs, beds, air conditioning. Probably gonna be one of the first places hit and looted by the ferals if the system is out for more that a few days."
