Lois Lerner: 'I'm Proud of My Career and the Job I Did for This Country'

Employers won't hire her. She's been berated with epithets like "dirty Jew." Federal agents have guarded her house because of death threats. And she's spent hundreds of thousands of dollars defending herself against accusations she orchestrated a coverup in a scandal that has come to represent everything Americans hate about the IRS.

Lois Lerner is toxic — and she knows it. But she refuses to recede into anonymity or beg for forgiveness for her role in the IRS tea party-targeting scandal.

"I didn't do anything wrong," Lerner said in her first press interview since the scandal broke 16 months ago. "I'm proud of my career and the job I did for this country."

Fixed.

I'm sure she's very proud.

For country. For children.

I am sure you are, you mendacious bitch.

"I didn't do anything wrong,"

You used your non-political office to engage in partisan political activities against those whose opinions you didn't agree.

Sorry Lois, you did something wrong. Pity you lack the self-awareness to understand that.

[Raston Bot]

then why'd you plead the fif?

[Bardas Phocas]

She can't find a job.
Welcome to Obama's America!

I'm sure Adolf Eichmann was proud of the job he did for his country, too.

Hell, half the Nazis hanged by the Nuremburg Tribunal shouted out their fealty to the furher, why should this pig squeal any differently.

Or maybe she'll just jump off a roof yelling "I DID IT FOR YOU DAMI, ERRR, BARACK!"

[Faceless Commenter]

That's as much of the article as I can stand to read.

Bitch is willing to spill her guts for a Politico reputational reconstruction but she pleads the Fifth when the people's representatives have some questions for her.

Lois Lerner, did you order the Code Red?

You see Danny, I can deal with the bullets, and the bombs, and the blood. I don't want money, and I don't want medals. What I do want is for you to stand there in that faggoty white uniform and with your Harvard mouth extend me some fucking courtesy. You gotta ask me nicely.
