Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) declined to go on the record and possible be caught in a lie

Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) declined to make a CNN appearance Sunday to defend against allegations by a former investigator on the GOP's special Benghazi committee that it had almost exclusively focused its energies on a "partisan investigation" of Hillary Clinton.

A spokesperson for the Select Committee on Benghazi told POLITICO that CNN should have done more to vet Podliska in the first place and should have reached out to the committee to help determine which questions to ask.




This sentence says a lot. The spokesperson has confused CNN with fox. They tell fox "reporters" what questions to ask, therefor they think all news outlets do the same.

to hurt their political opponents. This will hurt them in the longrun. Gowdy might be a teabagger idiot, but he knows enough to realize how much DEEP SHIT he is in now!

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

They're all fretting now - these are first rate ReTHUG scumbags.
They will soon scatter like roaches in daylight.

using taxpayer money for the ReTHUGs to destroy Hillary Clinton.

Their focus on destroying the Clintons has single-handledly destroyed these morons and it's fun to watch.

Well, at least in the political realm. We all know how the slime crawls off to work for a zillion dollar think tank, after their time in Congress. Watching Trump fuck up the GOP landscape and watching Trainwreck of the House McCarthy tell the truth LIVE ON AIR...was the best gift the GOP could have given us EVER.

And there are congressional records to prove they have fucked themselves!


HAHAHAHAHA!!!


I am in a GOOD mood today!
