Gowdy takes gloves off in blistering open letter to Cummings

[lucas80]

I read the entire letter.........

What I got out of it was that Gowdy is simply asking Cummings to be the same committee member he is behind closed doors, while in the public eye and to stop the leaks coming from his side....and to stop the false narratives.

I'm not a huge Gowdy fan, but that put him up a few points in my book. He is right on several things he brings up in that mail. Stop the partisan bullshit, and let's get to the truth.

This stopped being about finding out the truth of Benghazi a long time ago. Gowdy doesn't have a leg to stand on when it comes to leaks. Both sides have leaked because both sides have known for a year this is purely a political endeavor by the Republicans. Gowdy is in a tight spot now. His fellow Republicans have spilled the beans. He has to save face.

What leaks have come from Republican members of the committee?

yes, nobody in a court of law or committee wants to know about gun running and getting 4 americans killed, that's right, nobody cares. what we really care about is politics and elections. yep, you caught us.

I was about to ask the same thing. All the damning information about Hillary and the server has been released by either the State Department, or the FBI when information is found.

 

[lucas80]

Why would he want to challenge what he wants to believe? Classic head in the sand.

Why would LC post something that questions his preconceived notions about Hillary Clinton?
It's over. Move along. Just the crying and wringing of hands is left for the right wing.

What laws are they accused of breaking? What laws require them to share their e-mails? What laws and/or policies prohibit them using private servers for their e-mails?

Wait a minute. Why don't they want to share their emails? Do they have something to hide?

Gowdy had to make a desperation move once McCarthy blundered and told the true reason for the hearings has been to justify/pay for a year long smear campaign against Hillary Clinton.

Isn't hilarious that people like you absolutely believe something that comes out of someone's

Yeah, I read it. And honestly I don't trust anything Gowdy says. Gowdy and Jordan are the two biggest dbags in congress. Having said that, I don't doubt the democrats aren't doing much investigating either.

What a worthless response. "Those two are the biggest dbags in congress". And of course, you're going to lay out the case why they are two biggest dbags out of all of those members of Congress?

We wont know until we see the emails. Isn't that how the republicans have been working?

Just from what I have observed from hearings I've watched. I'm sure there are several that are worse that I've never even heard of. So I'll change my statement to "Of the congressmen I've seen enough of to form an opinion of their level of dbagginess, Gowdy and Jordan are the two biggest dbags."

I don't know. Have they been asked to share their e-mails?

No. And if you really think it is, then you are absolutely clueless about current events.

Seriously? Look at the linked article and tell me that was leaked by Democrats on the committee. You can say both sides have leaked information, and you would be correct, but to say that only Democrats have leaked is a fallacy.

Fair enough. That looks like it most likely came from Republicans.
