Try using that excuse when IRS demands documents from you. [More]
We are ruled by criminals. That's why their behavior to those they shake down is increasingly thuggish and geared toward intimidation.
And voting for the rival gang is hardly going to help.

I've always found this Lerner E-mail Fiasco suspect. Working in IT, I can tell you that, yes, sometimes stuff just happens. But that's precisely why there are redundancies. Backups. Archived files.
An agency the size of the IRS would have their e-mail system on an exchange server - almost certainly running between several networked/clustered servers. If someone's computer crashes, all e-mails, calendar appointments, schedules, etc. are backed up on the exchange. If a server crashes, the others carry the load until it's replaced. If the user get a different computer, the new computer downloads their data from the exchange.
The servers perform routine backups, archive old files, and maintain the accounts. The user's computers just interface with the servers.
In short, given a halfway-competent IT department, I'm not buying it. There's NO POSSIBLE WAY the IRS could "just lose" two years' worth of internal e-mails in a computer crash. There should be backups and archives, and if there's not it means someone removed them.
Oh, you bet. They're lying. And *when* the truth gets close to being exposed, watch the legal roadblocks and stonewalling kick into high gear, and watch any correspondence with the White House/Justice Dept. claim protected status to prevent disclosure.
6 more crashes ?
