Secretary of state Hillary got into a verbal tussle this afternoon with Congressman Dana Rohrabacher during todays Foreign Affairs Committee hearing.

I’ll look forward to all these memos coming out and all of the Senate and House leadership on all of these committees where knowledgeable and on-board. Then bring on the show-trials.
