Rep. Alan Grayson, a Democrat from Florida, has a plan to become Republicans' "worst nightmare" if he is indeed appointed by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to the select committee investigating the 2012 terrorist attack in Benghazi, Libya. (clip)
Grayson said he would use the Benghazi hearings as an opportunity to draw attention to other issues important to "ordinary Americans" that have not received as much attention.

Following DeLauro's proposal, liberal groups hatched another idea: send Grayson. A petition on the CREDO group's website has already garnered more than 65,000 signatures.

Grayson said it's up to Pelosi to determine how she wants to approach the number of people she sends to participate. He said he's "ready, willing, and more than able" to be on the committee and, if he's chosen he would be Republicans' "worst and last nightmare."
Grayson also offered Business Insider a preview of what that "nightmare" would look like. During the proceedings, Grayson said he would attempt to draw attention to other issues for which he thought voters would also like select committees to be formed.
"I'll be asking why there's no select committee on income inequality. I'll be asking why there's no select committee on immigration reform. I'll be asking why there's no select committee on the minimum wage. I'll be asking why there's no select committee on anything that has anything to do with the lives of ordinary Americans," Grayson said.
Grayson predicted he would draw attention to the 60 people who died from embassy attacks under the Bush administration, as well as questioning why there wasn't a select committee established to investigate the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attack.

Hope someone uses the line of him “Have you no shame, sir?!”
POS.
Someone should ask why don’t we have a select committee on Congressmen who beat their wives and lose their fortunes to grifters.
He has the perfect face for radio.

Great, send the crazy wife beater!
Doesn’t this turd have a wife to beet? Seems to me he should take care of his messy domestic life before he brings his violence to the public square.
I’d love to have him on the Committee. He’d be a train wreck...for the dems.
LOL ! never heard that term before, a rectum-with-arms... RWA ...
Shouting “SQUIRREL!” only works a few times before people get wise/bored with it.
They are as serious about this issue as they are about the VA debacle. Gowdy should be able to turn this clown around on that single issue alone.
Let a fool keep digging his own whole, by letting him speak.
TG is a ex prosecutor able to let the other side make a fool of themselves, and then trap them at their own words.
these people are so PROUD as to be politically suicidal...
Lets get MORE of em on the committee
HE IS A LIAR— liar!! AND THE NIGHT MARE IS Trey GoWdy for him. Annihilate his ass.
Actually Alan, you're more like a walking wad of it.
I do believe that Trey Gowdy would send this child home crying back to momma.
Ill be asking why theres no select committee on income inequality.”
