Our Congress is a study on how NOT to govern a country…….and when they do something it is “send in the clowns” because no matter what it is, the issue that is, it will degrade into a political circus…….
Now in the center ring of the DC circus, the greatest show on earth…..we have our latest act and as usual it is not even a professional act in any stretch of the imagination…….the actors are set and we can now begin……BENGHAZI!
After weeks of internal debate, reluctant House Democrats chose Wednesday to engage in the GOP-led Benghazi select committee and seat a full roster on the 12-member panel.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said it was the only way to ensure that the latest congressional investigation — the ninth — into the 2012 attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission was not a one-sided review of what transpired. Four Americans died in the attack, including including U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens.
The panel has a 7-5 split in favor of the GOP. House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, has already tapped the seven Republicans who will serve on the panel. It will be chaired by Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C.
Democratic Rep. Elijah Cummings of Maryland will act as ranking member. He is also the ranking member of the House Oversight and Government Relations Committee, which has spearheaded contentious Benghazi inquiries under chairman Darrell Issa, R-Calif. Adam Smith of Washington, Adam Schiff and Linda Sanchez of California, and Tammy Duckworth of Illinois were also tapped to serve on the panel.
There you have it….the last of the players have signed on……
Let the comedy begin!
I think Einstein’s definition of insanity is in play here.
Oh yeah……a Greek tragedy in the making….we have our protagonist and our antagonist…..there is another one in the making…..will write about it later today….
