(CNN) – House Republicans have decided the select committee to investigate the Benghazi terror attack will include seven Republicans and five Democrats, according to two senior House GOP leadership aides.

The House is expected to vote on the legislation establishing the panel later this week.

Earlier Tuesday, House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi demanded it be evenly split between Republicans and Democrats.

Now that the committee's structure has been decided, it's unclear whether Democrats will participate.

And Same Ervin....er- Trey Gowdy is going to head it.

Tough luck Nancy.

Still too many democrat hacks on the panel ....

They should have left the Rats out altogether because their sole purpose on the panel will be to run interference for the SH.

the 5 will walk

[livius]

Actually, I think that’s pretty generous. And it will guarantee that the committee accomplishes nothing.

[shalom aleichem]

and you can bet the Dems will chose the most vitriolic, bombastic, screaming, scheming, partisans they can find, and Boehner will pick a bunch of whimpy milquetoasts.

Gowdy will have a real challenge making any headway with this bunch.

Cummings will be there yelling “racecard” every 2 minutes.

Someone need to throw the GAY card. Ambassador Stevens, gay, was raped in the streets posthumously and the Pink Mafia hasn’t uttered a word.

Yes, and probably too many leftist Republicans. Give us 7 Tea Party Republicans.

Bingo!

United states army will have 7 million Americans and 5 mllion North Koreans.

[ncalburt]

exactly.

I suspect this is a Carefully Orchestrated vaudville show to distract the Bubbas while Amnesty is being rammed thru in the dark recess in the middle of the night.
The Dems are in on the Gope scheme.
Both Trey and Issa are huge Amnesty bots and K street boys.

The last select committee that the plastic faced witch put together was very lop sided with democraps. What does she expect?

Tell the evil plastic faced witch to sit on it and spin. Spin and lies are her speciality anyway.

All it will take is one GOP squish and nothing will happen.

[piytar]

Ya beat me to it. Yup, the Donks will run away in an attempt to delegitimize the committee. Unless they can’t because it will cost them too much personally if they think they might lose their cushy gigs as a result...

[piytar]

I agree but hold out some slight hope because Gowdy is one of us (from what I can tell). Please correct me if I am wrong.
