Want on or off this ping list of 30+ (and growing) FReepers? Just drop me a FReep mail.

I don’t think that he would have accepted the job unless he felt that there was something to investigate.
Trey is going to burn your RAT house down.
What is going to happen to those called who refuse to testify?
If he doesn’t have the authority to lock them up, this will go nowhere fast. Boner sure as heck isn’t going to put the hammer on anyone. Boner’s treatment of Lerner did nothing but tell the Dems they do as they please with no repercussions.
If I read it correctly, State is already making noises that suggest to me Kerry isn’t going to testify.
Priceless name recognition exposure to rep. Gowdy as chairman of Select Committe. He should milk it for all it’s worth. You are looking at a future presidential candidate. IMO he is a better speaker than any republican right now. He does his home work, remembers every detail and delivers it extremely effectively.
Gowdy said to Greta last Friday that he “has evidence of a systematic, intentional effort by the Obama regime to withhold documents from Congress, in the investigation of the Benghazi terrorist attacks.”
He wouldn’t say that if he didn’t have the evidence.
It's just a shame we don't have anyone else of his caliber to run a select committee to investigate the IRS, because very clearly there is evidence that that department was used for political purposes in clear violation of the law.
The responding SEALs were highly experienced and on that roof would have known that using a target designator would bring them under an additional level of physical risk as events unfolded.
**WHY** were they using it...?
Did someone from our side TRY to get them killed...?
Were they led to believe aircraft were minutes from arrival on scene..?
If one of our own made statements with the goal of getting them killed then WHY..?
Whatever comes of this committee, the members must make no stem-winder speeches. The facts must speak for themselves. It works no other way. That goes for us in the general public, too. Keep your mouth shut at work and only point passively to new facts. Don’t say, “I think Obama is a traitorous rat! I hate that SOB!” It just makes you look biased and crazy.
Do say, “The emails released last week clearly show the ‘Video’ talking points came from the Whitehouse. I wonder why they lied to us?” In other words, be analytical...not emotional. It’s our ony chance.
With all of that said, it is quite likely Obama let those men die in Benghazi, so his campaign message wouldn’t be spoiled.
One of his kiss-ass minions knows excactly what went down that night in the White House. Cracking that person and getting him/her to spill the beans is the key to this investigation. It will take skill, pressure, and some luck to make that happen. I’ll say this. If Gowdy can’t do it, no one can.
By the way, I’ve read that the ‘Video’ message started to go out of the White House even before all four men were dead. In other words, Obama’s first response was regarding what to say, not what to do. Nice job, Mr. President.
He is a good choice. He’s very smart. Issa seems smart enough, but there seems to be something missing in his performance. Maybe it’s judgment or preparation - I’m not sure exactly what it is, but there’s something lacking in his approach. I’m happy to see that someone like Gowdy has taken the spotlight on this issue.
It's a legal investigation into why Americans were murdered while those in power watched.
People who might get bored without 'revelations' need to read a book, go to the movies, or dream about being in high school again. Which is where they belong...
