The U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia has notified House Speaker John Boehner that it won't bring contempt of Congress charges against Lois Lerner, former Internal Revenue Service official who asserted her right to decline to answer questions during a congressional hearing.

The letter from the U.S. Attorney's Office only applies to the contempt issue. The ongoing Justice Department probe continues to look into possible wrongdoing in the IRS targeting of conservative and other groups. Law enforcement sources have said that probe hasn't yielded evidence to warrant charges, but the case remains open.

The Justice Department under this Administration has been turned into a weapon deployed against political opponents...it should be called The Injustice Department.

You never have to say a thing, and learn from her mistake, say nothing, nothing at all. Do not talk with the authorities, it can only hurt you.

Dottie, you can trot that same lame cartoon out from now until the end of Barry's second term and it still won't change the fact that the Obama White House deliberately misled the American people about what happened in Benghazi that caused the deaths of four Americans and have stonewalled every investigation looking into it since.

The most transparent Administration in history...
