This is a remarkable claim: IRS Officials Claim Lives in Danger if They Testify About Tea Party Bias Case:
Former official Lois Lerner and Holly Paz both argued in recent filings under seal in the U.S. District Court in Cincinnati that the death threats and other harassment they have faced take precedence over the public's right to hear their testimony on the case of IRS bias against conservative groups, USA Today reported.
They just want to get out of testifying. Lerner has already taken the fifth, so she knows the routine.
Meanwhile, she's in less danger than conservatives. See Violence And Intimidation Against Republicans Are Becoming The New Normal which chronicles some of the recent violence while noting that some progressives call for more of the same.
Oh, but we're supposed to sympathize with Lois Lerner? It's pathetic.
