BREAKING: “Select Committee” Benghazi Investigation is On… Trey Gowdy Will Chair
Conservative Tribune ^ | MAY 02 2014 | Conservative Tribune

Posted on 05/02/2014 9:19:38 AM PDT by PoloSec

Just minutes ago, the world was informed that a Select Committee investigation on Benghazi has finally been announced. This will bypass Barack Obama, Eric Holder, and will likely lead to the impeachment of Barack Obama and the end of Hillary Clinton’s career.

The only question is why this hadn’t been done sooner. Benghazi was a massive system of crimes, cover ups, and outright lies by the Obama administration. Their goal was to win an election in 2012… but the cost might be impeachment in 2015.

Make sure to spread this story everywhere. The American people must wake up and see what’s happening. This is the perfect opportunity for exactly that to happen. Nobody should be allowed to get away with murder — not even the president of the United States.

From the Weekly Standard:

UPDATE: Other news organizations confirm the report below that House speaker John Boehner will announce the formation of a select committee on Benghazi, led by Rep. Trey Gowdy.

***

House Speaker John Boehner is “seriously considering” appointing a select committee to investigate the attacks on the U.S. diplomatic post in Benghazi, Libya, according to a senior GOP leadership aide. The move comes after the revelation of an email from a top Obama national security official, Ben Rhodes, instructing Susan Rice to focus on an anti-Muslim internet video to explain the attacks.

“The new emails this week were the straw that broke the camel’s back,” says the aide. “The Speaker was furious to learn that the admininstration withheld relevant documents from a congressional subpoena. He’s sick and tired of this evasion and obstruction from the administration, and wants a solution to finally force accountability, get to the truth, and provide justice.”

Please note that “seriously considering” was the older version of the story — since then, it’s been updated. This IS happening. Justice WILL be served.

We can be sure it’s not “I don’t want to miss a thing.”

“I think “they” delayed moving forward with a dedicated investigation/committee for timing purposes.

You see, if started too early and the investigation petered out or was derailed somehow, then the RATS would have time to recover before the election and take advantage of the ‘average’ voters ignorance and inattention. .”

I have to wonder if the same intention is in play with the Lois Lerner contempt vote

"I think they delayed...for timing purposes".

I agree with your analysis. I have always believed that involved House members were stalling on purpose, even at the risk of being called "spineless" and other appellations I won't post here because I'm a lady.

At any rate, you're spot on.

The timing is perfect for the REAL investigation....and we're already seeing psychological upswings from negative moods and depressed funks to joy, ecstasy and rapture.

The pessimists here are not affecting me.....I'm strictly elated today....especially about Trey Gowdy!

The House and Senate will never impeach the first black president.

Senate Repubs didn't have the nads when Slick Willie was impeached.

“How can I get a life-insurance policy for Trey Gowdy?”

Good question. Trey Gowdy is about to be Ken Starred.

The vast right wing conspiracy will be resurrected.

And how can I buy some of that Pity Insurance for the poor, beleaguered, hard working, well intentioned, commander in chief hounded by his enemies ?

“If Baraq becomes a cornered rat, he will go scorched earth on us.”

Yes he will, and right now the dems stirring the racial/civil unrest pot is exactly the same thing the dems have done prior to previous terrorist attacks since 1993’s 1st WTC bombing.

Why not just appoint a Special Prosecutor?

Why do we need two more years worth of hearings?

Good. Let him try.

When you are standing in the middle of a powder magazine, the last thing you should do is start throwing hot sparks around.

The timing couldn't be better, if it's Trey Gowdy as the chair, this is serious and will be far better than the toothless investigations and committees the GOPE has put on in the past.

We'll see how it ends, after all, the Clintons and the dem machine (I would say and the press, but THEY ARE the dem machine) aren't going to let this succeed without a major fight. I'm glad this is happening, the negative Nancies here who are whining have simply lost all fight and only want to whimper their way to the gulags.......

“Gowdy is pro-amnesty, however.”

When I heard him on Fox saying he was for amnesty I immediately wrote him off as another RINO: All talk, no positive action.

The premise of the term “Scorched Earth” comes from Bill Ayers book “Prairie Fire”, the Weather Underground playbook.

Find an incident, a spark to ignite the flame, ratchet it up to a raging inferno

In other word orchestrate civil unrest and race riots then carry out terrorist attacks.

The American people can’t stop it so people better get ready.

This is what Mark Levin was calling for last night.

Yep, and start having the White House in 30 days to comply with interrogatives.

Which, unfortunately, probably also carries over to this committee. It won’t find anything Boehner doesn’t want it to find—and that means it may not find much.

Even if it found water to be wet the committee is not a special prosecutor and if they do recommend one Bonehead won’t allow it.
