Issa Warns Hillary: If she's called to testify again, she’d better be ready.
National Review ^ | 5/21/13 | Jonathan Strong

Since Hillary Clinton last came up to Capitol Hill, we’ve learned senior State Department officials sought to scrub references to terrorism from the infamous Benghazi talking points to insulate Foggy Bottom from political criticism — citing concerns of their “building’s leadership” to justify the demands.

The rising temperature of the scandal means it’s possible that Hillary could be asked to return and testify again. If she comes back, she had better be prepared, says House Oversight and Government Reform chairman Darrell Issa.

“We are interviewing lots of people, most of them under oath,” Issa says, describing the “methodical” approach his committee has been using for months.

“We’re going to go through . . . that so that if we bring Secretary Clinton back, we bring her back when we have a lot of questions, including who told her what, or, more importantly, who didn’t tell her something, and why” Issa says in his office in the Rayburn House Office Building, his foot propped up on a table.

I think that it was a common practice for members of sororities to take donated furniture with them when they moved out after graduation. They raid all the closets, attics and basements for unused antiques, donated by some of the “old money” alumnae.

The ‘Pubs have always treated Hillary with kid gloves, going back to the long, weary, dreary years of the Clinton presidency. They treated her with obsequious deference when she was in the Senate. The ‘Pubs do all this and the only reward they get is that Hillary kicks them in the nuts harder. The only one who has been tough on Hillary has been Obama. That should tell us something.

This is how you have to deal with Democrats. Hardball and direct confrontation. The time for politeness, compromising and appeasement is long over; it obviously didn’t work.

If you want to win at anything you have to want victory more than your opponent. This is a defining if not golden moment for Republicans. Let’s see how bad they want it.

Severe shortage of nads in DC, ya think? Not a pair amongst all of them, IMO.

Good luck getting any truth out of Hillary. Such words have never passed her lips.

How many times can she say, I can't remember, I don't recall, I am not sure, I will have to get back to you. Nothing will come of this. NOTHING

“Boehner - Benghazi, MIA
Boehner - IRS, MIA
Boehner - Wire Taps, MIA
Boehner - AP records, MIA
Boehner - Fast and Furious, MIA
Boehner - Covering for Islamic criminals, MIA

Anyone think that Boehner might be watering down Issa’s investigation? Nah....

“i predict she will soon have another stroke”

Predict? I hope she has a real one and at worst, dies from it or at best is turned into a vegetable that has to keep living with no hope of recovery. Now that would be real justice.

Well, a man can’t be too careful. Say anything the gop-e doesn’t like, like being the voice of the people, no DC cocktail party invites... I mean FGS the man’s daughter just got married and the wedding gifts alone coulda been in jeopardy...

That was my first thought too. Also, I'm getting a little tired of the warnings and posturing. Just subpoena the bitch.

When Republicans warn Democrats, the MSM immediately warns the Republicans ....that they are engaging in McCarthyite tactics.

I wish, just once, a Republican would say,

"Yes, and now we know, due to recent decription of the Venona Files of KGB correspondence with communist infiltrators in the US the 19302-1950s, that McCarthy was right! We were infiltrated and influenced by Communists!!! So accusing us of McCarthyite tactics is actually a compliment!!!

And furthermore, the fact that the Obama administration has been using KGB tactics via the IRS and Justice department on private persons, business, charities and the Media, that maybe some McCarthy tactics are in order today! Americans dont take kindly to being lied to, intimidated and coerced by our government and we intend to find out who has ordered these tactics that are worthy of the worst kind of secret police intimidation!!!"

I have only one question. No one seems to have asked: Were there any contributions made by any cartel member to politicians as a quid pro quo for the sophisticated long guns the US furnished to cartel members in the gun walking?
