House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi on Wednesday named the five Democrats who will participate in the select committee established by House Speaker John Boehner to investigate the 2012 terrorist attack on the U.S. mission in Benghazi, Libya. Here they are:
* Elijah Cummings, Ranking Member on the House Oversight Committee
* Adam Smith, Ranking Member on the House Armed Services Committee
* Adam Schiff, a member of the Appropriations Committee who vehemently opposed the creation of the panel
* Linda Sanchez, a member of the Ways and Means Committee
* Tammy Duckworth, a member of the Armed Services Committee
A senior Democratic aide had said earlier in the day that Pelosi was "leaning toward" participating in the committee. Some Democrats suggested the party should boycott the committee entirely while others offered a Plan C — send only one member, which would allow for Democrats to both signal their disapproval of the panel while also maintaining their ability to question witnesses and get access to reports.

Elijah Cummings should be disqualified right off the bat for unethical behavior on Obama’s political misuse of the IRS.
Grayson will sit in the hall?
no Grayson? LOL. I guess the rest of the party didn’t think that smarmy ass is the best face to put on the party during these hearings.
They want Elijah Cummings there to serve as the Obama firewall ( AKA obstructionist ), the same way he did the IRS hearings.
YUP! The man isn’t african-american he is a shiite stain that’s why he’s brown.
Amen! When I heard he was on it I was incredulous. Talk about stacking the deck...
They look like a freak show from a local carnival.
Grayson should be in an institution with a padded cell.
So these dhimmicrats are assigned to make an attempt to frustrate Trey Gowdy’s search for the truth of what happened at Benghazi?
Why boycott the committee hearings when you can send in people to obfuscate and interfere?
That’s what Elijah Cummings is there for. He has vast experience with the IRS investigations.
They will do nothing but OBSTRUCT.
Not likely to see Mau-Mauing on the Committee but the audience will be stacked with disruptors.
Yes, they will but they are worried or wouldn’t have joined on the committee. Plus, the VA scabdal is gonna suck the air out of these losers.
His unethical behavior makes Elijah especially qualified to be one of the dhimmicrat quintuplets.
There will not be enough waste baskets to put all the ‘dems’ trash in.
With Elijah Cummings in this makes any hearing less then a joke.
Elijah Cummings.......Racist bigmouth
Adam Smith..............From my state, the Peoples’ Republic of Washington
Linda Sanchez...........Questionable win over Bob Dornan; good bet that
lot of illegal votes were cast
