Lois Lerner’s price for testimony: Immunity

Quote
Embattled IRS official Lois Lerner will not testify before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee unless she’s given immunity from prosecution, her lawyer told POLITICO Tuesday.

“They can obtain her testimony tomorrow by doing it the easy way … immunity,” William W. Taylor III said in a phone interview. “That’s the way to resolve all of this.”
Lois Lerner pleads the fifth

The comments reflect the hard-line approach Lerner, the former head of the IRS division that scrutinized conservative groups, and her legal team are taking in defending her role in the agency’s scandal.

Taylor, a founding partner of Zuckerman Spaeder LLP, is even shrugging off the possibility that the full House might vote to hold Lerner in contempt.

I honestly believe that Lerner could get her immunity, testify that she was told by Obama himself to target conservatives, and nothing would come of it.

I believe that's how dysfunctional we've become.

It's a liberal thing. Liberals, and Obama is a textbook example, will lie when the truth would work.
