... Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md., denounced the subpoena of Kerry as "shockingly disrespectful," protesting that Kerry should have been given more time to prepare and that committee chairman Darrell Issa, R-Calif., should have followed a more formal process for issuing the subpoena.
“These actions are not a responsible approach to congressional oversight, they continue a trend of generating unnecessary conflict for the sake of publicity, and they are shockingly disrespectful to the Secretary of State,” Cummings, the top Democrat on the oversight panel, said in response to the subpoena.

Cummings is a criminal and belongs in jail for his role in the IRS scandal.

'Disrespectful'?
No...Disrespectful is when you openly, routinely and maliciously insult and embarrass the American taxpayers, who you are SUPPOSED to represent!

There is s Select Committee on the IRS scandal in Elihah's future, and he knows it. That's why he's been squealing so loudly lately.

No other Secretary of State has been treated as badly by Congress than John Kerry. Must be because he’s black. /sarc.

Demonrat Elijah Cummings is shockingly disrespectful every time he steals oxygen.
To: Oldeconomybuyer
There they go again with that “more time.”
Give them more time and then they argue you’re barred by laches, or from waiting too long.
Cummings is as crazy as a gingered mare.

So finding out the TRUTH is racist now? I guess in a PC world that would be very true...
To: Oldeconomybuyer
...and he deserves respect because...?
Come to think of it, I am ALSO finding it difficult to find any “respect” for the source of this quotation, in spite of his color and therefore apparently automatic entitlement to “respect”...

It’s racist not to afford John Kerry the White privilege he deserves. He has a rich wife, you know. And it’s not his first.
