On Tuesday a number of left wing pundits were summoned to the White House.

Spotted: @joshtpm @CapehartJ @ezraklein & other lefty columnists headed into the West Wing as a group. POTUS coffee? Carney meeting? Anyone?
On Wednesday Klein and Marshall came through
Sure enough, both Klein and Marshall published similar blog posts within 30 minutes of each other on Wednesday morning. Klein, who wrote last week that the “scandals are falling apart,” writes today that “heads should roll at the IRS.” Marshall takes direct aim at IRS official Lois Lerner, writing that Lerner’s refusal to testify before Congress means she should be fired. “Whether or not she should be fired for whatever she did in the scandal itself, deciding to take the fifth means she needs to be removed from her position,” Marshall writes. “I was chatting with people yesterday who said that civil service protections may make this extremely difficult or even impossible.”
Klein:
Yes, heads should roll at the IRS
Marshall:
And today- you guessed it- Lois Lerner was canned:
WASHINGTON (AP) — A day after she refused to answer questions at a congressional hearing, Lois Lerner has been replaced as director the Internal Revenue Service division that oversaw agents who targeted tea party groups.
Danny Werfel, the agency’s new acting commissioner, told IRS employees in an email Thursday that he has selected a new acting head of the division.
Ken Corbin will be the acting director of the agency’s exempt organizations division. Corbin is currently deputy director of submission processing in the wage and investment division.
A congressional aide said Lerner has been placed on administrative leave. The aide spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss a personnel matter.
Iowahawk tweeted to Marshall
“You’re an errand boy, sent by grocery clerks”
They both are.
DrJohn has been a health care professional for more than 30 years. In addition to clinical practice he has done extensive research and has published widely with over 70 original articles and abstracts in the peer-reviewed literature. DrJohn is well known in his field and has lectured on every continent except for Antarctica. He has been married to the same wonderful lady for over 30 years and has three kids- two sons, both of whom are attorneys and one daughter on her way into the field of education.
DrJohn was brought up with the concept that one can do well if one is prepared to work hard but nothing in life is guaranteed.
Except for liberals being foolish.
