If that’s what the minds of those not willing to come to grips with Congress’ scope of power wishes to contrive then I’m unable to assist. He did his job in exposing the crime through questioning. It isn’t up to him to cuff her, prosecute and convict. Again, as much as there are those that would love to see it, fanaticisation of a reality that can never legally happen doesn’t make it so.
Neither does the delusion that Gowdy is some white knight who was hampered by the rules of Congress make that any more valid, either.
Is Gowdy not a member of Congress, did he not know the terrible shackles he was operating under? Did not seem to affect him at those humble press conferences, now did it?
