Someone just announced that Gowdy says he’s retiring from politics at the end of this term, because he wants to return to South Carolina.
I just read that he isn’t retiring, that someone misinterpreted his remarks in conference, and falsely reported that -
I wonder why there might be an effort to marginalize him? Or is my tin-foil wrapped too tight again.
Turns out that was false about his retiring.
It came from a Louisiana congressman - likely a friend of Scalise who wants to run for Speaker.
Who can blame the guy. Its got to be depressing to never be able to really get anything done due to the apathy and gridlock of Congress. He’s probably sick of it. My former congressman John Linder who was a good man just finally got sick of it and quit. He got tired of trying to push the Fairtax with no results.
I did read that too a while ago and we can only hope and pray he changes his mind when he realizes now how badly we need him in Washington.
His office denied that.
