BSoBS: An IRS Blue Screen of BS

A Blue Screen of Death (or Doom; aka BSoD) or, in the case of the IRS, a Blue Screen of BS (BSoBS).

The IRS and Lois Lerner blame “dated technology” for the computer crash that they unbelievably, even laughably, claim was responsible for the loss of Lerner’s email from 2009 through the middle of 2011, the crucial period of time during which any conspiracy to target Tea Party groups would have been hatched and carried out. Targeting began in 2010. [emphasis added to quotes]

“Frankly, these are the critical years of the targeting of conservative groups that could explain who knew what when, and what, if any, coordination there was between agencies,” said Ways and Means Chairman Dave Camp (R-Mich.) in a statement. “Instead, because of this loss of documents, we are conveniently left to believe that Lois Lerner acted alone.”

Obama’s “stunning admission” runs from the beginning of this video to about 50 seconds in.  The video was uploaded in January 2010.  (The date of his admission is unknown.  Emphasis added to quotes.)

If you look at the package that we’ve presented–and there’s some stray cats and dogs that got in there that we were eliminating, we were in the process of eliminating–for example, for example, we said from the start that it was gonna be important for us to be consistent in saying to people:

“If you can have your, if you want to keep the health insurance you got, you can keep it.”

NSA Spins to the House Intelligence Committee (Open Thread)

Today we were treated to a hearing during which General Keith B. Alexander of the National Security Agency (NSA) tried once again to explain to We the People why we shouldn’t be concerned that the NSA stores metadata from all of our phone calls.  Also testifying were representatives from the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). This was basically a propaganda operation combined with a love fest, with much parsing thrown in.  During opening statements, we were assured by committee members and witnesses alike that “safeguards” are in place to secure the information. [Would those be the very same safeguards that did not prevent low-level, undereducated “system administrator” Edward Joseph Snowden from copying and disseminating top secret documents to the entire world?]

Do As Obama Says–Not As Obama Does – Open Thread

Pay your “fair share” of taxes. 

Hate the rich (but not Obama).

Hate the 1%, like Mitt Romney, who probably pay less than their secretaries. 

Do as I say, not as I do.  In a Friday afternoon document dump, the Obamas released their tax return:

Ruh row…your nephew is not going to be happy about this!  Will a call to the White House help in this instance?  “Unclegate” and “Auntiegate” are just the beginning.  The “con” genes seem to run in this family.
