This does not sound like Trey Gowdy.
I agree, I think Gowdy is being methodical and building his case. A comment to the article at the original link sums up what is probably happening:

It seems likely the truth about Benghazi is known....that the people who knew have talked to Congress.
But you don’t go after the first black president without getting every single duck lined up. The GOP has been there done that with Bubba and it was a disaster for them and US....while Bill remains a hero to Democrats, State Media and over half of our fellow citizens.
If there is rock solid proof and a dozen impeccably honest and credentialed witnesses ready to testify under oath that Obama gave orders to stand down from a rescue or that he passed the buck to Hillary and she gave the order to let our men die....and that a cover-up was ordered by the White House and joined by the State Dept.....then come January 2015, Trey Gowdy will prosecute the case.
Gowdy sucking up to Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-IL) on immigration doesn't either but he does.
Remember how we were supposed to get depositions and not have these silly five minute rounds of propaganda questions? One democratic showcase hearing before the election,how smart does that sound?
