Discussion: Sharyl Attkisson Will Testify At Obama AG Nominee's Senate Hearing

Discussion for article #232543

Someone on the committee should ask her if she knows how to vacuum the crumbs out of her keyboard.

Attkisson and Catherine Engelbrecht, whose tea party group has accused the Internal Revenue Service of ideological-based targeting, will testify separately from Attorney General nominee Loretta Lynch at Wednesday’s hearing, along with a handful of other witnesses.

What in the world do these two tea bagging idiots have to do with Lynch? What does the IRS’s “I haz done been targeted cuz they asked some very valid questions”-gate have to do with Lynch’s confirmation? And Benghazi? There’s not even the remotest connection to the AG’s office. This is just bizarre.

Given this, I wouldn’t be so all-fired confident that she actually end up being called to testify.

Obviously, her name got put on the list before this story came out. So, I see its presence on the list at this point as more, um, aspirational than anything else.

This is fairly bizarre. I can only liken it to someone being invited to your job interview, because they had once complained about your predecessor. I can only imagine Loretta Lynch will be wondering with the rest of us, what the hell they have to do with her confirmation.

I would pay money to see somebody put one of these on the desk as she started testifying:

Lovely idea …let’s us get the batchit crazy lady to testify.

I wonder…is the GOP looking to up its viewership ratings on C-span?

Her kooky konspiracy theories should be good for a whole week’s worth of FauxSnooze pieces.

The answer is self-evident.

She’s got a lovely singing voice:

O mio babbino caro
Mi piace, è bello, bello.
Vo’andare in Porta Rossa
A comperar l’anello!

Sì, sì, ci voglio andare!
E se l’amassi indarno,
Andrei sul Ponte Vecchio,
Ma per buttarmi in Arno!

Mi struggo e mi tormento!
O Dio, vorrei morir!
Babbo, pietĂ , pietĂ !
Babbo, pietĂ , pietĂ !

“Journalist Sharyl Attkisson is listed
as one of the witnesses at Wednesday’s Senate Judiciary Committee
hearing on President Barack Obama’s nominee to replace outgoing Attorney
General Eric Holder.”

I would not go so far as to call Ms Attkisson a journalist these days. These days she’s more like a whining harpy.

Actually, it’s more like employees from a different company being invited to your job interview because they had complained about former employees from other departments than the job for which you’re interviewing.

When she resigned from CBS I thought she did so because she had a better gig at Fox lined up. Apparently that didn’t work out. Isn’t Lynch the Federal Prosecutor in New York? Maybe Attkisson has some evidence that the NY Federal Prosecutor was actually behind Benghazi or something.
