Subpoena Lois Lserner's records

Enough complaining. E-mails , opinions, and complaints don't work. This time the editorials, are about the IRS to the house oversight committee's request for Lois Lerner's e-mails. Of course everybody knows this is nonsense. Even the mainstream media felt compelled to give advice- try iron mountain they never throw anything away, the IRS is lying because there are always backups;  the timing is too remarkable to be an accident,  The IRS destroyed the evidence knowing there would be  big trouble if the truth came out. Remember her answer to every single question asked by the congressional committee:   "On the advice of my counsel I respectfully exercise my fifth amendment right and decline to answer that question." Odd that she should exercise her fifth amendment rights after preventing  who knows how many Americans  from exercising their first amendment rights to a degree that makes Watergate look like a minor event.

When it is clear that the American's rights are being violated the response of Americans and Congress and journalists and everyone else responds in one way: they get angry, point fingers,  complain, verbally and in writing.

When this administration arrested 'lone terrorists" some people complained, when  swat teams broke into peoples' houses there were complaints. There were many angry complaints, articles, videos and speeches about no fly lists, about pat downs at airports and about US citizens  imprisoned indefinitely without lawyers, or juries. The angry editorial tactic isn't working very well.  We lost our  civil rights, became a police state  Miranda rights disappeared, anybody can be labeled a terrorist without the right to know why, personal information and property can be taken people disappear and presidents have kill lists and are proud of it.

Most Americans don't want to live in that country. Schools being what they are, people are  a bit fuzzy about exactly what rights they are being denied, but they
know they deserve better than what this government is giving them, that they are entitled to be left alone, live in a free country where they can say what they want without getting arrested, wear crosses to school if their religion favors that and that  life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness ---are not candidates for hope and change

 If I were were Lois Lerner, Valerie Jarrett, Eric Holder or an other democracy-loathing, communist and my goal was to remake this turn this country into fascist communist regime; if I trampled on Americans' legal rights and the only reaction was angry words  , I would pat myself on the back knowing that our tactics are working so well.  The Soviet method of changing social beliefs works well and I would use it, starting slow, testing the waters , pushed as far as I could go, waiting and then pushing a little more, and then more. Each time we did something to move people towards communism and saw them accepted it by doing nothing other than complain in angry editorials from groups whose credibility our mainstream media could dismiss as tea-baggers, and extremists, my comrades and I would plan something more extreme and celebrate: Nastrovya Tovarishch.

Let them vent. If it becomes a problem we can always use the NSA's records of a every telephone call, every e-mail  every credit card charge and more to blackmail people and keep them quiet.

Somebody in this country has to do more than complain. If Egyptians in Tahrir square were able to overthrow fascism twice, surely we can prevent this democracy from becoming a dictatorship.

The information congress needs exists and congress has the right and obligation to get it. Arguing about backups is pointless.  How about something completely different for once. What if The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, instead of complaining immediately subpoenaed the NSA records immediately.  If NSA has a record of former General Pertraus's e-mails and his mistresses credit card charges, copies of information on computers of journalists, telephone records of every American, they have records of Lois Lerner's e-mails.

There is no downside  here. Why not serve the subpoena on camera and post it on the internet if the media won't pick it up, There is always a remote chance it could work. If it doesn't Congress would the executive branches feet to the fire by demanding the White House  follow its own rules.  It's a tactic Saul Alinsky taught these socialist Americans in "Rules for Radicals" and it worked for them.

Lois Lerner a potential threat to this country should be subjected to the same scrutiny as Richard Nixon.
