Here’s some major news fit for a Friday afternoon: according to the Washington Examiner, the IRS inspector general has recovered up to 30,000 of former IRS official Lois Lerner’s missing emails, allegedly lost forever in a computer crash. The Examiner reports that “the emails were found among hundreds of ‘disaster recovery tapes’ that were used to back up the IRS email system.”

That’s a lot of emails. But remember when the New York Times asked its readers to “crowdsource” the review of 24,000 of Sarah Palin’s emails?
@BecketAdams @JammieWF Waiting for the @nytimes to say they are crowd sourcing to get thru them all. Waiting…

@JohnEkdahl @dcexaminer Evidentally the White House would like the change the subject TO the IRS scandal. Right now, I don't blame 'em.

@JohnEkdahl @stephenkruiser @dcexaminer Funny how that happened so soon after the election.

@DavidMDrucker @susanferrechio Wow, what a coincidence that they were miraculously recovered… two weeks AFTER a major election!

@JohnEkdahl @dcexaminer The tell that it's damaging is that it's Friday PM before thanksgiving. How long before the election was it found?
