was about the most incredible group I have ever been so excited to watch.

We owe them so much congratulations and thanks. They did what we were waiting for. Why did our government fail so badly...then they picked it back up. I waited with excitement to hear what was next as did all my immediate family. They did it and there is no way I could ever thank them enough. I do not feel icky when I see Adam Kinzinger or Liz Cheney (without her dad), I feel grateful for this. I would never vote for them but I am so grateful for their dedication to more than their party.

The entire committee should go down in history as the saviors of our country...IF we eventually win this and I am beginning to believe.
