I grow weary of folks who put more stock into the power of investigations than what the constitution allows for a Congressman to accomplish. Gowdy is OUTSTANDING and I’d bet you my next 10 checks you’d shat yourself if you were on the other end of one of his cases. Folks seem to EXPECT Gowdy to question, indict, try, cast judgement, sentence, transport to prison, turn the key and monitor prisoner. Folks have this twisted vision of what HIS JOB truly is.
He did what was allowed by him under the Constitution. See it was those pesky little detail you failed to mention and that is an Attorney General (who happened to be a Democrat) who would not prosecute. Gowdy brought the scandals to light through his questioning and gave Justice more than what was needed to bring charges.
But we just keep harping Kabuki
Thank you for pushing back against the hand wringers and pearl clutchers who have nothing of importance to contribute.
I wasn’t thrilled with Gowdy’s Rubio endorsement:
Many conservatives were shocked when Trey Gowdy decided to throw his support to Marco Rubio. Gowdy was on Fox & Friends last week to explain his decision.
No one on the Fox panel asked Gowdy his opinion on Rubio’s amnesty stance, instead they chose to talk about criticism, Trump and his Benghazi work. Only one in three of those topics is important and even Benghazi has been talked to death as Gowdy has repeatedly said to wait for his report when the investigation is complete.
Gowdy’s main reason for supporting Rubio seems to be national security, but most all the candidates have agreed that’s a huge priority, so there is nothing outstanding about Rubio in that regard. Ted Cruz has spoken often and clearly about his stance on the subject, and all indications say he’s much stronger on our security than Rubio is.
Certainly Gowdy is free to support any candidate he chooses, but it’s disappointing to see that he’s not the warrior we thought he was. His Benghazi report will likely be a disappointment too.
[The Benghazi report was a MASSIVE disappointment. Gowdy failed to make any serious effort to get to the bottom of who issued the stand-down command. That was close to the heart of the issue, since it almost certainly cost the lives of two brave American heros, who died expecting the help that never came.]

Well done! Sensible, honest and realistic. Unusual traits to be found here.
