House Speaker John Boehner is facing mounting pressure to create a special or select committee to investigate the Benghazi terror attacks in which four Americans were killed.

The House resolution to form a special committee now has at least 139 co-sponsors who are putting Boehner in the difficult position of leading efforts to get the White House to release emails on Benghazi-gate but not agreeing to the demands of many rank-and-file Republicans.

Any moment now the Free Republic Committee to Excuse Republicans will arrive and explain why this is a super secret plot by JonBon that will save America. and we just need to give him time.

"T'is a bearer of ill will that pleads for haste! Speaker Boehner has a plan that he will execute in just the right time - no sooner!"

When he was first up for the job, I can’t believe how many, at least half, thought he’d be a good choice. He may not have pics of his grey cotton covered privates, but he’s still a Weiner. Boner. Whatever.

Unfortunately that plan is to merge the two parties under Democrat leadership. Truly Lord Vader ...er...Bhoner is a uniter, not a divider.

What is The Speaker waiting for, you ask?

What has Obama got on Boehner, is my question.

What did he have on Roberts?

If this had happened in the Bush administration, Pelosi would have convened the select committee months ago.

Boehner's been busy, what with his daughter's wedding yesterday and all. I wonder if he cried at the wedding.

House Speaker John Boehner: My Daughter’s Big Fat Rasta Wedding!

In a Meet The Parents-like scenario, Conservative House Speaker John Boehner‘s daughter was married to a pot-smoking Jamaica-born construction worker last night in an intimate garden ceremony

The bride wore a strapless white gown that revealed a thick armband tattoo around her right biceps and bikini-top tan-lines. The groom wore a grey suit that prominently displayed his waist-length dreadlocks.

more...

Can't wait to see pictures of the happy couple. In the meantime, we'll just have to be content with a pic of the prospective groom from this FR thread:

He’s father of the bride this weekend. He’s getting the son-in-law he deserves.

Victoria Toensing in an interview the other night said going for a select committee will waste valuable time and eliminate the momentum we already have with Issa's committee ~ she said when the Democrats ran that committee they had all the tools they needed.

John McCain is the RINO asking for a select committee, probably to eliminate the momentum and do a favor for some Democrat constituent who wants to bring in more illegals to pick lettuce or something.

So, Norm, which side are you on in this little battle?

Seriously?

>>The WH is a bumbling, stumbling mess of nerves.<<

I hope Hil-liar-y is an absolute emotional wreck, her brain sizzling and crackling and frying, trying to think up ways to save her worthless, hideous hide.

It couldn’t happen to a more evil witch.

Well, he has pressure from the other side as well, no doubt. Of course, he was not hired to work for them, but that’s a moot point.

Sniveling cowards, I’d say.

They’d better get it together, get off the golf course and study up. If they’re afraid of her it’s because she’s better at what she does than they are at what they do.

The guy smokes Parliments? I used to smoke Parliments about a million years ago. I didn’t know they were still made. Oh, you left out something... a case of Scotch.

Thread full of half cocked knee jerkers talking out their behinds. Waste of time trying to reason with, but I applaud your attempts.

I’m on the side of making Hillary testify under oath. The current set up let her off the hook. Time for another approach.
