IRS Official that Targeted the Tea Party Put On Administrative Leave

I guess this is a pre-emptive strike to keep this scandal from getting further out of hand.

Lois Lerner, the IRS official whose unit is at the center of the investigation into alleged Tea Party targeting, has been placed on administrative leave and a replacement has been named.


Ken Corbin was named acting director of exempt organizations during Lerner's leave. He is currently deputy director of submission processing in the wage and investment division. 

She should have just testified and not invoked the 5th Amendment like she was a gangster or a communist in the 50s or something. I think in the minds of a lot of Americans if you have information just admit it and see what happens. When you use the 5th Amendment you just look guilty even though you might not be. Mark my words though, there will be a link to someone in the White House before too long. This kid of stuff has a way of metastasizing.
