That story as also is included miss lerners failure to willingly testify before this committee. Im going to put all that aside for a second. Miss oconnor, youre white house counsel. Im a lawyer, youre a lawyer. I want to step away from the irs problem and investigation for a minute and just have a comparative discussion because i think in the responses there may be some misunderstanding with respect to the independent the treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration and id like to talk to you a minute about their powers. Not with the irs, but just in general.

The connection between a healthy ocean and life itself for every Single Person on earth cannot be overstated. And we will hear from scientists and we will talk about that relationship in the course of the next hours and days. Share nothing so completely as the ocean that covers nearly three quarters of our planet. And i remember the first time i really grasped that notion.
