Rep. Trey Gowdy was bombarded with requests from fellow Republicans, eager to take part in the latest congressional investigation of the Benghazi attack. But when it became clear that he intended to lead the inquiry behind closed doors, far from the spotlight, the requests soon fell silent. “If you want to get on the news, then go rob a bank,” Gowdy, R-S.C., said, recounting his message to several Republicans on both sides of Capitol Hill, dashing their hopes of being featured in what they assumed would be high-profile televised hearings.

“I can get more information in a five-hour deposition than I can in five minutes of listening to a colleague ask questions in committee hearings,” Gowdy said. “If it’s about getting the information, then you want to use the investigatory tool that is most calculated and gets you the most amount of information and that’s not five minutes in a committee hearing.”

Asked whether the committee’s work would be finished by the midterm elections in November, Gowdy replied: “No, heavens no.” “I’ve decided that I’d rather be right than first,” he said. “So we’re going to do it methodically, professionally and there is no timeline.”

Before November 2016? You bet your ass we will..

I’m becoming an even bigger fan of Mr. Gowdy. Gowdy knows most of his fellow politicians of either stripe are vermin.
“If you want to get on the news, then go rob a bank,” Gowdy, R-S.C.
Hey, he’s talking directly to “them” Ferguson Rioters.
Gowdy knows most of his fellow politicians of either stripe are vermin.

True that. Most politicians are essentially like chameleons: they are slow moving lizards with independently mobile eyes (for maximum opportunism) and the ability to instantly change colors to adapt to their surroundings. No intent to disparage real chameleons which at least are capable of feeding themselves.
The attacks on the US consulate & annex were about stealing those weapons.
Even without the audience there will still be a room full of clowns. Hopefully Gowdy brings his whip and chair as the clown tamer. (Did you actually thought that only the lion tamer used those? How else would you keep a dozen feral clowns in line)
Do you want the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth..... or a predetermined result you think it’s the truth.
the fact he going out the spotlight and doing it by the number give me hope we will get the stone cold truth that has little spin..
This this country needs some cold rational thinking for once
I would love to be a fly on the wall when he interrogates canckles. The “smartest woman in the world” will be no match for Gowdy.
That surely works for me!
And I agree Trey will get better results behind closed doors.
They tried to contact mac daddy but he was not to be disturbed while golfing.
She’ll demand a plush chair with gold inlays, a marine to fan her, a break every ten minutes, lobster tail for lunch, a new pant suit, a make up girl, a 747 airplane to fly her the 100 miles to the place, and expenses of $1,000.000.00 per day without any proof of charges and a large diet soda.
Love this guy.
(I like Judge Judy too.)
Where is Bill’s underwear ?
GOOD, we won't have to listen to this moron speechifying.
