WH response: “NO!” End of story. (Emails had nothing to do with whatever it is you’re asking about because they were from a long time ago.)

"I am not a crook."

Actually a good Benghazi article by Bob Woodward would be useful right now. We need some major Leftist to do the right thing. But I'm not holding my breath.

He steps in when there is a chance to win. It’s like when all the 49’er and Giants gear got dusted off when they began winning again.

Fair weather weeper.

This is more Boehner BS. All he has to do is create a Benghazi Investigation Committee and that Committee can subpoena all they are asking for.

Instead, Boehner keeps this thing locked in the various committees and they are stepping all over each other to figure out what happened.

Demand Boehner stop playing games and create the committee. Talk is cheap!

Can I start the petition for a recall on the presidential election?

Didn’t think so.

Yawn and stretch.

Let's not discourage him now that he might make a few good decisions. It is a bit ironic that the article points out that he's making the statements as a result of the Admin being under pressure instead of to exert pressure - I guess that when the Admin is under pressure, so is Bohner. All the same, I want to reward good behavior by our wayward Reps and sling mud when they revert to form. Who knows that a few might decide they like the feedback when they do the will of their constituents...

If Boehner had any spine he would subpoena all the orders that came out of the WH that night!!

We already know basically what is in these emails!

Show us the Stand Down orders! Who was running the show?
