Unbelievable save for the fact it is happening with Obama as President. This a bald face criminality.

"Ex-IRS official Lois Lerner’s crashed hard drive has been recycled, making it likely the lost emails of the lightening rod in the tea party targeting controversy will never be found, according to multiple sources.

“We’ve been informed that the hard drive has been thrown away,” Sen. Orrin Hatch of Utah, the top Republican on the Finance Committee, said in a brief hallway interview.

Two additional sources told POLITICO the same late Wednesday, citing IRS officials

It may just be standard government procedure, but the revelation is significant because some lawmakers and observers thought there was a way that tech experts could revive Lerner’s emails after they were washed away in a computer crash in the summer of 2011. House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), for example, subpoenaed her damaged hard drive earlier this week, when he asked for “all hard drives, external drives, thumb drives and computers” and “all electronic communication devices the IRS issued to Lois G. Lerner.”

“IT experts have weighed in and said yes — we can get those” emails, said Rep. Charles Boustany (R-La.) earlier Wednesday.

The latest news suggests such professionals may never get the chance to try again — and the IRS has even said its criminal investigators who specialize in rebuilding hard drives to recover hidden information from criminals were unable to restore the data back in 2011. But this is only likely to further enrage Republicans, who are fuming over the matter and suspect Washington officials drove the selective scrutiny."

Not to worry. Issa is on the case. He really knows how to get results.

People still don't get it.

1. The REGIME says the emails are gone. So they're gone.
2. If people want to debate the absurdity of this - and even bring in experts to do so - that's fine. But it doesn't change the fact that THE REGIME says they are gone.
3. If we want to get really technical about it and say things like "well, backups exist here . . . " or "backups exist there . . ." it doesn't change the fact THE REGIME says they are gone.
4. When THE REGIME says they are gone, it means they are gone. And THE REGIME will do everything in its power to ensure they STAY gone.

If it has to go to the extremes of blowing up the planet to do so.

(once the planet's blown to pieces, the regime will be right. It's pretty safe to say that no backups will be found on the moon, Mars or Venus)

Rufus is, of course, quite correct: "The REGIME says the emails are gone. So they're gone."

And it goes beyond that:

"The White House said Wednesday it has found no emails between any person in the executive office of the president and a top Internal Revenue Service official who has been connected to the improper scrutiny of political groups. White House spokesman Jay Carney said the White House searched for all communications between the former IRS official, Lois Lerner, and executive office personnel. "We found zero emails," he said. He said the search discovered three emails in which a third party emailed both Lerner and executive office staff. He said one was spam and two others were from a person seeking tax assistance....more »"

So now we know for a certainty, because the Regime says so, the Obama WH and Lois Lerner were not in communication. That's a relief.

It's.....breathtaking! I'm going to have to brush up on vocabulary. I've run out of words.

That helped, Rev. I've thought of some new words. I won't be using them in public, though.

The original report from Politico has generated a ton of reaction. Comments, most calling bs, are up to 21k and climbing.
