CNN Report Slams WH: IRS Excuses on Emails Like 'Dog Ate My Homework'

At the Tuesday White House briefing, CNN’s senior White House correspondent Jim Acosta grilled White House press secretary Josh Earnest over the lost emails related to IRS official Lois Lerner asking, “Doesn’t it sound like the dog ate my homework when you have two years of missing emails?”

The IRS is claiming in June 2011, several key figures, including former executive Lois Lerner’s computer crashed and subsequently her hard drive was destroyed and no back up exists for her emails or anyone who received them resulting in the permeant loss of the records requested by the congressional committees investigating the agency’s targeting of conservative Tea Party groups.
