Whoa! you trying to tell me they’re not “un-flattered” already? Elephant skin . . .
They may have been against this “chupacabra hunting expedition” Boehner would like to pass off as a select committee, but they still voted for it. http://clerk.house.gov/evs/2014/roll209.xml

Methinks they are opposed because they are more sick of playing idiots than we are of having to put up with it. They want fresher stupidity.
More, Benghazi all the time-investigating nothing, stops Issa from leading on investigating other nothings that aren’t anything and wasting millions that aren’t his, for no purpose also, which cuts into Darrel time, which benefits Hillary, and that shit ain’t happenin’!
Expect Issa to go big very soon with a bigger dead horse and some flagrant beatings. He will not be out-idioted.

Nice: turns the entire power & resources of his committee on a trumped-up big non-juicy nothingburger waste of time & taxpayer money about political talking points, overpromises, overstates, overdoes, over-oversees, cheats, and otherwise fucks that thing up to the point where it’s so transparently nothing more than a big trumped-up non-juicy nothingburger waste of time that it loses forever any possible value his side hoped for in moving fuzzy center voters and otherwise serves to further twist the twisted teapers that the thing they somehow imagine is there is just too much for him to handle, gets the thing taken from him for re-cycling purposes that will inevitably escalate both the stoopid & the costs, then gets to wash his hands of it & otherwise appear like some semblance of a cost-cutting eminence grease on the re-election stump - from which he’ll emerge cleansed of everything, purified thru the magic of re-election.

‘Fresher stupidity’…Amen. Kenyan born, fast and furious, IRS, Benghazi – All failed plus some.
What will be next in the lexicon of cognitive dissonance?

Big lesson to learn here:
John Boehner is totally spineless.
When in cozy company he might do a “boo hoo” thing about his fellow Republicans’ lackings, but, faced with even modest opposition, he melts like cotton candy in the rain.

I agree with Darrell Issa. Johhny Boehner must have been drinking too much and spending too much time under the tanning lights. Darrell Issa has a done a great job as an investigator. He has managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory for Republicans.
He formed a wonderful panel of experts drawn from celibate pederasts in the Catholic Church to provide extraordinarily insightful testimony on women’s health. He can lie fluently and can fabricate evidence, doctor emails better than any other Republican crook and thug. He also has a conservative track record of stealing and breaking into cars and of supporting Hamas, which makes him very well qualified. Issa, Issa, Issa!

Well of course Firebug Darrell didn’t want the committee created.
He knew he wouldn’t get to be the ringmaster at the Bullshit Circus.

one of the concerns among House leadership is that if the select committee uncovers any new material, it would be unflattering for the other committees that have been investigating the attacks for months.
By which they really meant that a select committee takes away their own spotlights; since the whole thing is a vanity exercise anyway, is it any wonder that a trio of divas are annoyed about the arrival of a debutante?

Chuckles just has one eye on the ratings,and he realizes that the viewing public is letting out a very large collective yawn. He doesn’t want to get tied down into having to discuss an issue that is already worn out, for rest of the year because he knows his own ratings are going to head south.
Yes, but not really. I say you’re right that such is the leadership’s intent, but there is no job to do, nothing to see, nothing to uncover or learn. As usual, I think the foggy-headed leadership gave angry idiots what they wanted. Here it’s a shot at more BEN-GHA-ZEEEE!
I didn’t imply* they would actually find something. I just find it funny they are worried about these guys finding something and making them look bad is their main reasoning, not that, you know it’s most likely a stupid and pointless effort.

That’s why the Democrats should be on the committee; there are enough holes in the rationale for it the Democrats can cite the various other reports that have shown nothing was plotted by the White House, how the committee should be focusing on policy in that region and making sure that it doesn’t happened again, and if Kerry and Clinton are called, so should David Petraeus who ran the CIA at the time.
Don’t the Democrats have a former lawyer with defense trial experience?
The problem is in how Boehner has set up the committee.
Democrats will have no subpoena power.
Democrats can be excluded from interviews with witnesses.
Democrats will not have an equal number of seats.
Democrats can be stopped from asking questions.
Democrats can be excluded from reviewing “evidence.”
So tell me again why Democrats should lend credibility to this farce by participating in it.

You go guerrilla on them. Everything that you cited should be always announced and stated as to why there is “no case.” But you can’t make the assertions if your don’t show up to do so.

I can’t wait for this freak show to start. Who the hell wants to wait 'til the 2016 Clown Car Debates for this level of entertainment ?
Issa probably didn’t want the competition.
