Ends up Lois Lerner was e-mailing her husband with the conservative knock

Republicans this week released e-mails showing that former Internal Revenue Service official Lois Lerner expressed scorn for conservatives in an e-mail to an unidentified recipient — the name was redacted.

Lerner’s remarks would be troubling if she sent them to another IRS official, but it ends up that she was communicating with her husband, Michael Miles, according to unredacted copies of the exchange that Democrats leaked on Friday.

To review, Lerner used the term “__hole” to describe extreme conservatives after Miles complained about “the whacko wing of the GOP,” adding that “right wing radio shows are scary to listen to.”

This goes back to our point in an earlier article that federal employees are not prohibited from having political views or expressing them in private conversations. They just can’t promote candidates at work or use their positions to influence elections.

And what would leftists be saying if during the Bush admin, someone in her position had been responsible for huge delays on applications for liberal/left groups and she had said "the whacko wing of the Democrats" and "left wing radio shows are scary to listen to"? Tell me that Dems and lefties wouldn't have said a word and would have said it's fine because it's a private conversation and I have a bridge to sell you.

When you destroy all the evidence and institute a conspiracy (in the legal sense) to effect that destruction, it makes it harder to find the smoking gun, since the paper has reached 451 Fahrenheit, actually or metaphorically.

Without their hypocrisy, leftists would have nothing.

And using her position to try and influence elections is precisely what Ms. Lerner is accused of, Lucy. It's not like this email popped up in a vacuum, and is sparking a witch hunt to see if she somehow used her office to advance her beliefs about conservatives. We already know what she had been up to. In context, the email is damning.

You are aware of the fact that Lerner is a Republican right?

Speaking of asses, if you are going to run with a bubble butt for an avatar, couldn't you at least find one with some welts?

No more a Republican than you

Did the above emails escape your attention?

Bush may have appointed her, but to his detriment Bush tried to be a bipartisan leader

Practically suicidally so

Mr Nice guy, wanted everyone to like him

Big mistake

As much a Republican as you are, Ken, though she displays much more personal integrity.

Unlike like you I can check someone's resume
1981 Lerner is hired by the FEC (that's under Ronald Reagan)
2001 She returns to the FEC under W
Then she is appointed to the IRS job.

That's a lot of patronage by Republicans for a Democrat.

Ken believes whatever is convenient at any given moment. That doesn't mean it has anything to do with reality. It's like Sheila Jackson Lee talking about how Democrats never tried to impeach Bush II.

No, you ignorant hillbilly. I already proved she has spent most of her career in government working for Republicans. Maybe if you'd pull your head out of your ass and try thinking for a change instead of reading Drudge you could figure that out for yourself.

Oh. And that you swear like somebody who spent his Naval service as a chaplain's aide on the Great Lakes.

No decent American should be okay with the IRS being used as a partisan tool by any side. You haven't proved that, but you are an exhibit in the case to be made.

So, everyone in government now is a Democrat, working for Democrats?

That would come as a real surprise to a lot of the government employees I know.
