The IRS is continuing to drag its feet in searching for the "lost" emails of Lois Lerner, the former agency official allegedly at the heart of the tea-party targeting scandal, says Tom Fitton, president of the government watchdog group Judicial Watch.

"You can’t say you’re searching for records and not actually search for the records. The IRS has a history of lying about this, withholding information from the court and Congress," Fitton said Wednesday on "The Steve Malzberg Show" on Newsmax TV.

"This is the IRS in stonewall, cover-up mode and what an insult to the American people that there's been all this talk about missing IRS emails and they haven't even searched the IRS records and computer systems for the missing emails."
