Gowdy and the boys better watch their backs. The DemocRATS aren’t going to go down easy.

As a ,” former prosecutor Trey Gowdy”,
knows the 1st rule of a prosecutor, know the answer before you ask the question.
Hope Trey has done his homework.
Hope NO one tries to LIE like EVERYONE in this administration does.
Get em Trey, Make a name for yourself.
These opportunities don’t come a calling too often.
Or of course you can fold and put your lips on obammy’s ass.

Darry Issa’s services will not be required on that day. We have serious business to conduct. He can stay home and rest his throat, Gowdy will do just fine. Hopefully, there are a few other conservatives with his confidence and fire. Gowdy cannot do it alone.

Yea...watch their backs from their fellow Republicans.

I am surprised that Gowdy wasn’t forced by the GOP to wait till after the elections to start.

Popcorn ordered, walk in beer cooler prepped, always handy when it gets hot. Shovel standing by as it gets heavy..

Good luck, Congressman Howdy.

WE are counting on a fair and impartial butt whuppin’ of any and all perps responsible for the deaths, lies and delays of an official accounting of the Benghazi incident.

Working on their tans?

Funny how you would have a ‘belligerents’ training camp setup next door too,, no big deal, did Hitlary care? Obama figures as long as he lets a rogue agency do dirty deeds that favor his less than transaprent agenda, no harm no foul , right?

Until people start dying..

Your question is a fair one.

Don’t get too excited. My understand is that this hearing is simply to publicly air recommendations on making our embassies safer and things like that. It has nothing to do with getting to the bottom of the Administration’s misdeeds in the whole affair.

Well, Issa has some new names to call to testify.

And the John Doe to identify who gave the Stand Down orders.

One reader in Townhall.com had an excellent question which was:

Have you ever noticed that the only time leftists are worried about spending tax-payer money is when it is being spent investigating the left?
