    She has a Cons utional Right to exercise the Fifth Amendment. You must hate America and freedom.

    well i did move out of the country tbh. my skills are better served elsewhere.

    you know, in a place where the government can't use an amendment protecting citizens from it to protect itself from citizens, or a place where laws such as the Patriot Act aren't implemented.

    it's disgusting how little personal freedoms we have compared to other developed nations.

    the government using the Bill of Rights to defend itself in violating personal freedoms is a tragic irony.

    Oh, the usual. My wife aborted another fetus and we're deciding what to name it before we set up a fetus play-date between it (can't tell if it's a boy or girl for purposes of pronouns) and Gabriel.

    Being such hardcore champions of the Cons ution, this is a move I expect Tea Partiers to applaud.
    Not a Tea Partier; but a pretty ardent supporter of the Cons ution.

    I applaud the fact that dude has the right to plead the 5th.

    I am concerned that a high ranking executive in the most feared department of our government feels compelled to do so.

    I can only assume (not on a jury after all), that his invoking of his cons utionally guaranteed right means that he could offer testimony that would incriminate him in some (presumably) illegal partisan scheme to disrupt the funding mechanism for people of a specific political bent during a presidential election.

    No big deal, but it's a "she" not a "he".

    If you take the 5th you are not allowed to make a statement…By saying, I did nothing wrong waves your right to take the 5th…

    Try saying…Mistakes were made but I did nothing wrong & I take the 5th on your IRS audit & see how things go…

    Contrary to the perceived popular opinion running on this thread, pleading the fifth doesn't automatically mean you're guilty of the crime alleged.

    So give me a rational reason she would take the 5th if she did nothing wrong.

    But the idea of pleading the fifth is so you do not incriminate yourself. So by answering questions you would be guilty, correct?

    She has the right to plead the 5th, but that does not absolve her from criticism for using it....

    Not true. They are not going to advise a client that is demonstratively innocent to plead the fifth.

    Legaly, What would be the benefit of having the client testify in front of a committee stacked with poli ians looking to score political points by making you look bad? There is absolutely no reason to put your client in that position. He will attempt to demonstrate her innocence in a court.

    i personally think this woman is a moron and I can't believe she hasn't been terminated, but I don't think her pleading the fifth says much about her guilt or innocence.
