Obviously the speaker of the house & head of the senate are fools. They are afraid of their own shadows, thus congressional inaction. And State? I’d clean out this rats nest of naive fools & hire some truck drivers from Fresno & bakers from Alabama to run State. At least they would use common sense & mostly do the right thing. The majority of johhny boy’s people should be sent to islamic iran to live since they love the place so much.

“Past hammer time...”

Indeed so. But as I recall, Mr. Gowdy has a long row of nails to drive regards Benghazi. That’s beyond any definition of “unfinished business”. Now he’s off sorting (e)mail! And though moved to an unlit back burner, IRS somehow managed to boil over this week. The House has become a world-class player of whack-a-mole.

As demonstrated in the video, Gowdy is a good lawyer, knowing to ask only those questions he knows the answer to. I would urge him to go forward from there and get into the “known unknowns” if not “unknown unknowns”. And if needs be, lock a beehinds up in the process. I’d say more than a few govies & appointees need such a period of personal reflection.

I love Gowdy, his manner reminds me of a fresh graduate of TBS but so far his thunder lacks reverberation much less any light. Bottom line is “it ain’t gonna stink until someone stirs it”. And Mister Gowdy has the watch.

Target the cuts to salary and bonus for senior state dept officials, and they might have something.

otherwise - nada
