According to Bryan Fischer, Pleading the Fifth Means Guilt

On his program,  the ultra conservative Bryan Fischer made the statement that pleading the Fifth is an admission of guilt.

Fischer was of course talking about Lois Lerner, the former IRS official who took part in the implementation of a strategy to determine legitimate 501c4 applicants. Republicans decided to embark on a witch hunt, blaming the IRS for what they called, “targeting Teaparty groups applying for the tax status.

According to Fischer;

“By citing the Fifth Amendment, she is admitting that she’s guilty … What is Lois Lerner admitting when she invokes the Fifth?

She is admitting that if she speaks the truth she will be a witness against herself, her testimony would be condemning, her testimony would be damning, her testimony would make her guilty under the law. So I believe Lois Lerner, when she invokes the Fifth in a situation like this, she’s admitting her guilt and the guilt of the IRS”:

I wonder what Fischer has to say about Bridge-Gate, and all the Fifths being cited there? If you think Fischer would say Christie or members of his administration are admitting guilt or a cover up, think again. It is now common knowledge that the rules that govern Democrats do not apply to Republicans.

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!
