IRS unable to produce emails to Congress

I agree. Quite a few liberals are dissatisfied with BO because he hasn't changed enough. I imagine when polled they disapprove of his performance.
Yet, if given the opportunity, they would still vote for him again over any candidate of any other party. To democrats, party unity is everything, regardless of the cost to the nation. To me, that's a big problem because when voters start blindly following party lines without thought they cease being humans and take on the persona of 'sheeple'.
I have never followed party lines. I vote for what I think is the best person for the job. In the 2012 elections in Alabama most folks voted a straight Republican ticket.
I'm not a "sheep" I am a goat!:smile:
Well if you thought Obama was the best person for the job then you are as dumb as I think you are.
This. And the fact that most enterprise email and backup/recovery software packages include the ability to easily search and recover emails from the email server and/or backup server. I don't even have to read that article to know that it's a lie. If they are doing things right, at the very least, those emails are on their backup server or servers, depending on their retention policies.
It also means that Google lost all of theirs too because they often used gmail. These bastards should all be in jail or headed there. Actually I'm in the camp with the people that say BHO is trying to get the house to impeach him. It worked for Clinton when his administration was unraveling and it would serve as the ultimate distraction. I can assure you it won't happen. Save for a secret tape of BHO worshipping at a mosque and hugging the mullahs of Iran and N. Korea and bragging about how he is bringing America to its knees we will simply have to enjoy our poop sandwich with a smile.

Problem solved. There were no emails to find.

Thought they were supposed to keep communications for longer than six months.

Let's be honest: outside of headaches for tax payers, has the IRS ever been able to produce anything?
He needs someone to keep him in line. He's kind of a joker...
I wondered what had happened to him.
Steve never struck me as the kind of guy who would need a chief of staff, though.
Do these people not know what a mail server is? Do they think we are all idiots? Big fat BS, steaming and all. Freakin' amateurs. This is 3 year old behavior thinking momma and daddy don't know any better.
Perhaps, but this answer will fly in one house of Congress and with almost half of the other house of Congress. And it is completely satisfactory with the White House, and thus with the majority of the journalists in this country.
What's the problem?
To be somewhat fair rotating backups of mail servers that overwrite the media without taking archives is very common practice. Couple that with another common practice of purging instead of archiving old emails to free up space and you have a recipe for this. I have seen enough examples to actually believe this may have happened. Coupling that with a hard drive issue on the local machine is way too convenient, but it can and does happen.
This is most likely not the case, but a lot of entities do not leave the data on their mail server. As soon as it is downloaded to the client some delete them. They can be set up either way.
I can understand the messages being deleted from servers after 6 months - I started saving work emails to my hard drive after experiencing this. I can also understand Lerner's hard drive crashing - conveniently after the investigation had started. However, I would imagine many of her emails had more than one recipient. Surely someone kept those emails on their hard drive. Although it would probably be career suicide to come forward with them.
All of their hard drives crashed. Simultaneously. Apparently it was some sort of virus attachment about kittens. Nothing to see here. Move along.
The headline I saw said, "Time to Abolish the IRS: Agency Cannot Provide E-mails to Congress."
The IRS is not my favorite Federal agency, but I would like to see serious thought given to doing away with this agency and raising revenue some other way. I believe the IRS has become fatally undermined to be trusted any more.
I also am dismayed by the refusal of government employees to answer questions about their official duties and their performance of them because it might incriminate them.
Okay, fair enough, the Constitution guarantees American citizens the right not to incriminate themselves.
It does not guarantee the right to earn a Federal salary or benefit from a Federal pension. I would like to see every Federal employee who pleads the Fifth before a congressional committee immediately and permanently be denied either Federal salary or Federal pension.
I'd bet if salary and/or pensions were at stake, they be able to find the records of their own dadgum agency.
