The IRS stall

George Will: "The IRS's behavior taxes credulity"
What’s been said of confession — that it is good for one’s soul but bad for one’s reputation — can also be true of testifying to Congress, so Lois Lerner has chosen to stay silent. Hers, however, is an eloquent silence.
Comment seen online: "There's not a smidgen of corruption here but better take the Fifth just to be sure."

Extra - Powerline: "Obama's IRS: Political arm of the Democrats."

    Darrell Issa is a phony hatchet man, and not even an effective one. The spectacle of press-leaking, document-editing, kabuki chairman Issa searching for truth is a joke.

    The last person on earth who wants answers is Darrell Issa; if his investigation ever reached a conclusion and wrapped up, Issa wouldn't be anybody.

    Instead, fishing season goes on and on and on. Which is why no one with a lick of sense would cooperate with Issa, even if he were merely asking them to hold an elevator.

    ...Therefore, Lerner taking the fifth just shows how innocent she is.

    Yes, Darrell Issa is SO awful, Lois Lerner can't possibly lower herself to talk to him--especially not to answer non-incriminating questions truthfully. You know, because he is "the last person on Earth who wants answers," she really, really shouldn't give him any...or something like that.

    It would be best to skip this "gotcha" during the next discussion of King Obama's arrogant disregard for the Constitution.
