Trey Gowdy: I might take Hillary Clinton’s word on emails
Washington Times ^ | 5/1/2015 | David Sherfinski

Posted on 05/01/2015 5:41:10 PM PDT by markomalley

The chairman of the House Select Committee on Benghazi said he might take former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton at her word if she swears under oath that she’s turned over any relevant documents he’s seeking.

“If she were, under some theory, able to say, ‘yes, I can promise you under penalty of perjury you have every single document you’re entitled to,’ that would probably shut off that line of inquiry,” Rep. Trey Gowdy, South Carolina Republican, told USA Today’s “Capital Download.”

“There may be other questions about the security of the server or why you gave this person clintonemail dot com address but you didn’t give this person — those are all separate questions,” he added. “I just need to make sure that the public record is complete.”

Mrs. Clinton said in March that she exclusively used a private email address while serving as the nation’s top diplomat largely out of convenience. She turned over about 30,000 emails she deemed work-related to the State Department in late 2014 — nearly two years after leaving office — and deleted the rest, also wiping clean a private server and declining to turn the server over to an independent party.

Hillary wins again. It’s a real letdown. Ted Cruz is all we’ve got, now.

I’m not disappointed. I expected nothing from a congressional Republican, and that’s what I got.

When he had that one day of hearings just before the elections on how to prevent another Benghazi, I realized the fix was in.

I bet he already has evidence and wants her to lie under oath.

Don’t be so quick to condemn. This is a prosecutor’s trick to back her into a corner. She doesn’t know what he has or might be able to find. She can either say yes to the deal and take a risk that he has or finds something that he can use to bring perjury charges against her or she can say no, which would indicate that she knows she has not supplied everything.

It’s a trap! (But it would be great if Hillary fell for it)

I suspect that Gowdy has some solid evidence that she has not.
