Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Tex.) is proposing a bounty bill for anyone who can recover the missing Internal Revenue Service emails.
You can have a Justice Department that is actually involved in justice and they use pressure, and they will get it done. But we dont have a Justice Department. We have a just us or injustice department, he said on Fox News on Friday morning. The bill would offer $1 million for anyone who can produce ex-IRS official Lois Lerners missing emails and an additional $500,000 for any information on someone who destroyed the emails.
Dont forget the other stick, he said. We reduce everybodys salary in the IRS 20 percent until the emails are produced.
Gohmert called for Attorney General Eric Holder to leave and said that Holder should be impeached if he wouldnt resign.

You should ask Louie to put out a Gazillion dollar reward, makes as much sense.

In reality of course the crime here is that the teaparty groups get tax exempt status...
