A sign that the latest House Republican Benghazi show investigation is backfiring grew when John Boehner refused to answer questions about why he won’t stop the Republicans from fundraising off of Benghazi.



Transcript:


Q: Four Americans died in Benghazi. Should the NRCC fundraise off of your efforts with the select committee?

Boehner: Our focus is on getting the answers to those families who lost their loved ones. Period.

Q: Should the NRCC, they’re fundraising off of it right now, is that a wise thing to do?

Boehner: Our focus is getting the truth for these four families and for the American people.

Q: You are very involved in the fundraising off of this. Why is that happening?

Boehner: Our focus is on getting the truth for the American people and these four families.

Just cause he kinda-sorta LOOKS like he might be human flesh, doesn't confirm that he really is. Give me some dog turds (and a bucket of orange paint) an lemmee see if I can't deceive you.
