It was Gowdy. It also appeared to me that Issa knew what was coming. His 'respect' for her looked like women do in the South all the time. Ever heard, "Oh, how nice!"?
Well it got a little confusing, for everyone.....I think Issa was shocked when he realized what had happened, that her testimony waived her rights. There was whispering and I think Issa mentioned it, but then excused her. Gowdy then got quite vocal said she had waived her rights, that she should be made to stand and testify. Issa abruptly overrode Gowdy and told her to leave the room.
