IRS Commissioner Insists Law Hasn't Been Broken, Admits He Doesn't Know the Law

The IRS comissioner insists his agency did not break the law or relevant statutes. But under questioning by Rep. Trey Gowdy, the IRS commissioner also admitted that he doesn't know the law or the relevant statutes:
"You have already said, multiple times today, that there was no evidence that you found of any criminal wrongdoing," Gowdy said. "I want you to tell me: What criminal statutes you have evaluated?"
"I have not looked at any," the IRS commissioner admitted.
"Well then how can you possibly tell our fellow citizens that there is no criminal wrongdoing if you don't even know what statutes to look at?" Gowdy followed-up.
"Because I've seen no evidence that anyone consciously --"
"Well how would you know what elements of the crime existed? You don't even know what statutes are in play," Gowdy said, visibly annoyed. "I'm going to ask you again: What statutes have you evaluated?"
"Uh," the IRS commissioner stumbled, "I think you can rely on common sense--"
"Common sense? Instead of the criminal code, you want to rely on common sense? No, Mr. Koskinen, you can shake your head all you want to, commissioner. You have said today that there's no evidence of criminal wrongdoing and I'm asking you what criminal statutes you have reviewed to reach that conclusion."
"I reviewed no criminal statutes," said the IRS commissioner.




To paraphrase Nancy Pelosi:

'We have to break the law to find out what's in it.'

After riding off into the sunset after making a fool of himself in the Iraq2014 thread while ignoring legitimate questions posed to him,our board troll is apparently ready to roll some more gutter balls  

Please do not feed the troll until the following questions from 'Iraq2014' are answered

Fine. I'll play your mindless game. But when I'm finished, I expect you to admit that the other quotes were based upon the bullshit that the Bush administration was selling.

OK. It's your turn.  What about the statements based upon the "intelligence" provided by the Bush administration?

Ran away from this one too:

So tell us jack, do you agree with Hillary about Iraq when she said:
"I did get it wrong in Iraq, and it was a mistake,"
or do you agree with Dick Cheney: "I'd do it again in a minute"?
