House Panel Votes To Hold Ex-IRS Official Lerner In Contempt Of Congress

A House committee voted Thursday to hold Lois Lerner in contempt of Congress, as Republicans escalated their bid to "get to the bottom" of the former IRS official's role in the political targeting scandal.

The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee voted 21-12 to hold Lerner in contempt. The party-line vote followed hours of heated debate on the committee.

The contempt measure heads next to the House floor. House Speaker John Boehner predicted earlier this week that unless Lerner agrees to cooperate, the full House will support contempt -- from there, the case would likely head to the courts.

8:59 How come the constitution suddenly becomes relevant to you people when one of the Obama regime is lying and covering up for the glorious leader. Any other time it has the same level of importance as toilet paper to Obama and his butt kissers.

8:59, she committed a CRIME. She's pleading the 5th in a last ditch effort to save her arse from 30 years. She's guilty as heck, and needs to serve time.

Her Constitution allows for due process, and this is due process, period.
