Moments ago, embattled ex-Internal Revenue Service official Lois Lerner appeared before Darrell Issa's House Oversight Committee. She was supposedly there to answer questions about the IRS targeting of Tea Party groups. You may remember that President Obama has dismissed this entire scandal because he claims there wasn't "even a smidgen of corruption" involved.
That's weird, because Lois Lerner promptly invoked her rights under the 5th Amendment and refused to answer any questions. For the record, the 5th Amendment is the one that deals with not offering testimony that might incriminate yourself. You'd think that would be hard to do if the President's "not a smidgen" claim was true.

No wonder we are the laughing stock of the world these days. These adults act like a bunch of spoiled brats.
Only Cummings was acting stupid.
What mind?
It would almost be worth giving her immunity and prosecuting everyone else...all the way up to the white house.....
...if you have the facts to back you up to screw her to the wall, if she lies under immunity.
If not, she'll just lie as usual even under immunity.
She is one of yours, democrats. Elijah, and she doesn't want to talk. So. now Elijah is upset and blaming republican commitee? Whats next, Bush Did It, Again?
Elijah lost his mind a long time ago.
Or never had one to begin with. The man is dimwitted and incoherent.
E is a great actor. This was nothing more than taking the heat off of learner, with the real show put on by E. Notice that he sat there without any comments, until the hearing was called, then he went crazy. E is a much better actor, than a politician.
One must first find something before they can lose it.
