Yesterday we learned that the IRS has reportedly lost two years’ worth of emails from Lois Lerner to the White House, the Treasury Department, the Department of Justice, the FEC, and Democrat offices due to a “computer crash.”
Investigative reporter Sharyl Attkisson once again leads a master class in how to ask the tough questions. While many journalists seem to be laughing off the “computer crash” excuse as the Obama administration just being the Obama administration, Attkisson has a specific and exhaustive list of requests for the administration.
Smart questions from @SharylAttkisson on the IRS/email thing from a different angle. http://t.co/ry7kP0HbGg pic.twitter.com/WCheOwrGh6

@JohnEkdahl @SharylAttkisson Very good questions. But snowball's chance IRS will comply with those requests.

@JohnEkdahl @bloodless_coup @SharylAttkisson Bing. Nail them to the wall. Storm in, take computer, retrieve the not lost but deleted data

@JohnEkdahl @SharylAttkisson Questions that won't be answered.

If a computer crash really was to blame …
@JohnEkdahl @SharylAttkisson Obama supporters: Name anything wrong with those questions.
