Oh you mean IRS Commissioner Douglas H. Shulman, a republican who was appointed by President George W. Bush, right, Stupid? The emails of Lois Lerner that had been feared to have been lost forever in the bowels of the internet for all of eternity have now been found and recovered by the IRS Inspector General.

“They just said it took them several weeks and some forensic effort to get these emails off these tapes,†a congressional aide told the Washington Examiner.
Up to 30,000 emails have been discovered and now committees in both the House and Senate are seeking the emails, which may contain evidence to support the claim that the Obama administration was working in conjunction with the IRS to target Tea Party-affiliated groups.
