I'll be shocked if Hillary isn't subpoenaed.

Then it would be her choice to appear; because of Executive Privilege she wouldn't have to.

At any rate, Gowdy has refused to assure Democrats that they, too, will have the power to question or call witnesses or issue subpoenas.

It's a complete sham.

I don't believe the courts have tested this for former, not current, staff. You are welcome to try and prove that to be incorrect.

However, since Kerry has already stated he'll fully cooperate with release of documents, Hillary may want to appear just to explain and clear her name.

Really?

So you know what happened in Benghazi?

e.g., You have an explanation as to how the world's supposedly most powerful intel service was unable to debrief eyewitness US employees to the assassination of a US Ambassador for 3 to 4 days?

Where have I heard this before?

I remember.

That grandstanding old Sam Ervin and the political witch hunt he led.

That sound about right to you lads?

He has no plans to run for congress again. I am holding out hope that he still has the integrity to do the right thing.

And Rex, the guy uses analogies and metaphors from his time as a prosecutor. It's like you talking in doggie terms.

I personally would prefer to have Gowdy, Jordan, Roby, Pompeo, Roskam, Westmoreland and Brooks, as well as all 5 to-be-named Dem. members of the committee, refrain from commenting on Benghazi-related issues in media interviews until their work is completed.

Trey Gowdy is ready too

I hope the jug-eared idiot and his loyal minions are ready for Trey.

Yeah, yeah

Republicans said the same thing about Watergate and Iran Contra

If nothing else, it will certainly be a good lead up to the elections.
