Former Internal Revenue Service official Lois Lerner has once again invoked her Fifth Amendment right not to testify, refusing to answer questions during a hearing Wednesday before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee.
ORIGINAL STORY ...
A former Internal Revenue Service official who refused to answer questions about the agency's targeting scandal at a hearing last spring has arrived on Capitol Hill for another appearance before a House committee -- but it's unclear whether she will answer questions this time, either.House Oversight Committee Chairman Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., told "Fox News Sunday" he expected Lerner to testify at Wednesday's hearing. But a committee spokeswoman said she could only confirm that Lerner was expected to attend the hearing.
i watched lie a minute Issa say that she told him she would testify. and i guess he was trying to qualify another failure at getting evidence only he believes in his head nowhere else is that evidence found must be hiding with Bush's WMD's.
Issa and Lerner’s attorneys have argued about whether she is now still protected from having to testify under the Fifth Amendment. Emails obtained by Fox Newsrevealed an attorney for Lerner negotiated over whether she would testify.Last week, Lerner lawyer William Taylor made public a letter in which he told the committee that Lerner would testify on Capitol Hill only if compelled by a federal court or if given immunity for the testimony.He was responding to a letter from Issa saying, in part, that Lerner’s testimony remains "critical to the committee’s investigation."
all good except Issa said with impunity that she told him she would testify period. who long are they spending millions to pin a tale on a donkey so far 14 million.
