Too incorrect.
This formation of a committee is absolutely perfect timing. Gowdy will chair...and he'll move things along until the "peak" explodes at exactly the right time vis-a-vis the election.
Gowdy would have never accepted this lush assignment if he didn't have a winner in his hands. He's too smart for that. He's NOT about to captain a Titanic!
There's a lot to come out yet...he and others know the 2nd shoe will drop during the hearings. He and we are in a win-win situation, you can make book on it.
Unfortunately, every time, EVERY SINGLE TIME that conservatives are heartened and excited by a break for their side, the boo-birds, nay-sayers and negativos break out on this forum like chicken-pox in a day-nursery.....predicting every kind of bad-result or no-result as the ultimate outcome.
This is why conservatives get disheartened, turned-off, tuned-out, lose spunk....stay at home uninvolved.
I'm looking at this highly-promising turn of events as the beer stein being half-full, not half-empty!
Prosit!

I’m trying to remember a time when the committee for anything came to the penultimate conclusion in time to affect an election. The only decisions I recall are those that conclude that there is nothing to the scandal, move along.
Unfortunately, Gowdy is not control of the process, and there is the opposition that will have its way, especially when Gowdy is out on a limb on his own, with no support from the largest part of the party, and none from the dems.
We have no prosecution out of the DOJ that is not corrupted to lend support.
The press will not bring this to a head, either.
This step is necessary, but hardly an unstoppable, irresistible force that will conclude anything before the election - remember, it is later this year, and much of that time is spent golfing.
It is not being a negative Nancy to recognize that neither party polices the other, for then they would be policed in the same fashion when they are in power.
It is hardly possible to run a “good ole boys’ club” on any other basis.
I hope I am wrong, and would gladly eat my words, but the odds of anything happening before November 2014 are slime to none.
Besides, the main point is being missed.
What were they doing there in the first place? The malfeasance of the administration is far larger than allowing the death of four good Americans.
It is to determine the parties that this administration is supporting, all public statements to the contrary.
They are supporting the enemies of western civilization, and mean to bring its great institutions down.
While we speak of committees to prove what we already know, no one follows the greatest thread in the story, the denouement of which will come son enough.

I wholly agree... however, if the Democraps refuse to take part in any way, and their traitorous media either ignores the whole thing or carries the water that the effort is only political, the results will be minimally politically.
That is not to say that some people will not be forced to testify or face prosecution - that much can be accomplished by an aggressive prosecutor like Gowdy... I just fear that the total effect will be minimalized by the Stalinist Left.
It is important for FReepers to understand that the Benghazi cover-up did serve to help Ob@ma get re-elected, but it now serves one massive purpose: TO PROTECT HILDEBEEST from ever being involved in any way in this incredible failure of duty.
