1. Yet this message never sinks into Republican voter

... why?

[valerief]

12. How does it get to the 99%er GOP voter? Through Fox News TV? CNN TV?

Today Show TV? Nightly news TV? NOT.

[AZ Progressive]

34. They also believe in "the ends justify the means"

[Enthusiast]

41. It's a verboten topic on TV.

[Iliyah]

2. AND

Gowdy is complaining that he has had a "bad" couple of weeks. Typical GOP, doesn't give a shit about nobody or anything but thyself. Arse-hole.

[libodem]

3. And the more important aspect

[Botany]

4. Correction it is $4.777 million in costs now .... and counting

http://www.democraticunderground.com/10027268609

About $8.00 per minute or $480.00 per hour or $11,520 per day

[LuckyLib]

5. Money that could be going to so many other worthy causes.

The Republicans make me sick.

[Botany]

6. "the party of fiscal responsibility"

If we really had a liberal media in this country and they didn't rig elections
and gerrymander districts the GOP wouldn't occupy as much power as they
do now.

w and Cheney ran 2 wars off the books and ran the deficit up to the moon but when
President Obama came into office the repugs who had said nothing for years were
now all deficit hawks.

7. Indeed. This is what needs to be trumpeted far and wide.

But as the woman said to Robert Reich in the airport (as he handed her a copy of his book and suggested that her husband read it), "Oh, he doesn't read. He watches Fox News."

That pretty much explains it.

[wordpix]

32. it's up to us bloggers now to get the truth out b/c liberals by and large

don't have the $ of the 1%. So liberal papers are dying. But the net is helping to keep us lively.

[glinda]

15. When things like this happen, they should personally have to pay the money back out of

their own pockets and serve jail time. This is misuse of Public funds.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

9. But think of all the good wine they bought for wine Wednesdays

Can't be too cheap.

[NonMetro]

26. Maybe We Should Send the RNC a bill?

Of course, the deadbeats probably wouldn't pay it. We'll put it on their credit report!
Credit score = 0!

[stonecutter357]

8. K&R!

[forest444]

10. Looks like it's curtains for the Dowdy Doody Show.

Oh, well. He'll always be welcome in the velvet mafia.

[punguin54]

11. Its Grey Towdy. Grey Towdy!

14. Boy Howdy.

And pulling the strings, John Birchers and neo-Confederates.

[wordpix]

30. Gowdy Doody put sensitive info on Congress' website, outing an undercover

operative. This so he could prove how Hilary caused Ben -GAZI!!!!

[SoapBox]

13. He should be impeached and arrested for Crimes Against the American People.

And WASTING our money.

[glinda]

16. +1

[knightmaar]

17. To be fair: Conservatives in Canada have adopted the same policy

Must have something to do with the intellectual bankruptcy of Conservatism.

Ministers in the (hopefully FORMER - our election is today) Conservative gov't are not allowed to talk to reporters with the Prime Minister's permission. Scientists can't talk to the media about the research. Local Conservative candidates do not attend debates.

Basically: Y'all are too stupid to talk.

[Initech]

18. It's the GOP's new white whale.

[Fred Sanders]

19. When is Clinton to appear before The Committee to Get Her...But Got Them?

Even odds the "questioning" is postponed!

[classykaren]

20. Doesn't he look like M&M ?

[turbinetree]

21. Because your party (REPUBLICAQN) decided to

politicize this event and the deaths and your party was and should be held accountable for defunding the state department security system, then you and your party should be reminded of this everyday.

Your Majority whip should be Impeached, right along with you , it's that simple, for misappropriations of taxpayer funds-------------it's that simple,

$4.5 million could have been used for infrastructure work for example------but you and your
"republican " cronies think a bottle's Merlot is better at $4.5 million asking price


Honk-----------------for a political revolution Bernie 2016

[wordpix]

31. I'm honkning...

[turbinetree]

37. I got and FEEL the BERN

[Helen Borg]

22. Looks like a winner.

[lonestarnot]

23. Asshat.

[Fritz Walter]

25. The RepubliCAN'T Party

CAN'T stop digging the hole they've created.
CAN'T shut the fuck up.
CAN'T be fiscally responsible.
CAN'T win an election without lying, cheating and stealing.
CAN'T campaign on real issues and must rely on personal attacks and pandering to lizard-brain talking points.

CAN'T endure in the 21st Century with an informed electorate. (Or so I fervently hope)

[Thor_MN]

27. What is it with these politicians that don't use their given names?

Is it some type of self-loathing?

Harold Watson "Trey" Gowdy III
John Ellis "Jeb" Bush
Piyush "Bobby" Jindal
Rafael Edward "Ted" Cruz

[wordpix]

28. the speak-no, hear-no, know nothing R "leader" is among their best

since he's in such a powerful position. He will really be flustered when he loses his re-election, if he's not hauled off to the courts first.

[rtb61]

29. Defending the Corporate Pick

What you are seeing here, in the most glaring fashion imaginable is the GOP now defending Hillary Clinton because 'Bernie Sanders'. Rather than attacking the pretend opposition, they are now forced to undo some of the attacks they have carried out, pretending that they feel those attacks were wrong.
They feel the Bern, make no mistake and all the other corporate picks are rallying around the main corporate pick Hillary Clinton but desperately trying to not make it too obvious and failing.

[wildbilln864]

33. sweet! n/t

[tomm2thumbs]

35. he missed his calling

[Martin Eden]

36. Shameless

Shameless is the single most apt word I can think of.

This whole Benghazi witch hunt is a transparently political waste of taxpayer dollars.

Is there anyone not brainwashed by Faux News who really thinks it is anything BUT that??

I say this as someone who will NOT vote for Hillary in the primary, obviously for other reasons.

[azureblue]

38. Gowdy done done it now

in Clinton's emails is proof that Bush committed treason by lying to start a war:

http://www.dailynewsbin.com/news/hillary-clintons-emails-reveal-that-george-w-bush-committed-treason/22854/

Thanks Gowdy! You just drove the last nail into you own coffin.

[wordpix]

44. I don't view this as smoking gun since we already know most of it BUT

there may be more in this treasure trove of emails. I'd love to see some between Powell and Dimson himself, or Powell and the neocon chickenhawks.

[oldandhappy]

39. sent an email to Gowdy

to say 'probably a good idea to never run for national office'.

Was that too subtle??!!

[longship]

40. He's kind of a funny looking guy.

[FlaGranny]

42. He is - - Draco Malfoy!!

I swear, when I first saw him that's what I thought!

[wordpix]

43. Luke Russert reporting R's trying to figure out House Speaker today, lol

they still want Ryan but Ryan's dragging his feet, still undecided.

Guess what, you pukes? You have to make hard decisions if you want to lead but obviously, you're not up to the task.

[Todays_Illusion]

45. DU, instead of reserving this prime space every week for a simple minded attack on Republicans

give this precious spot over to demands that the Democratic Party get to work on regaining some seats in the red stte legislators and governorships and federal legislators who are Democratic.

This weekly feature is so wussy and pathetic. Are all we to do is cry and point oh look how awful the winning
Republicans are?

[FSogol]

46. No thanks. The GOP blows. Laughing at them is very cathartic. n/t

[Todays_Illusion]

47. They are having the biggest, loudest, longest and winningist laugh. We lose, you laugh, thanks.

[FSogol]

48. How do you figure they are winning? Their lead candidate is a national joke.

They cannot govern and can't even fill a vacant speakership. In a few weeks, they'll try to shutdown the government again. Do you think the country failed to notice? Why do you think national attitudes are moving to the left?

[Todays_Illusion]

49. 22 states with Republican Governors and legislators, Republican majority House & Senate. nt

[FSogol]

50. GOTV.

[Todays_Illusion]

51. Does that mean something?

[FSogol]

52. It does to people who know something about politics.

[Todays_Illusion]

53. lolololol if it is on televison, it is a lie.

[FSogol]

54. It isn't on TV. It goes back to the founding of the Democratic party on the

grass roots level. It also isn't a lie, it is the biggest truth in politics and the one thing that can save us. It really isn't surprising that you don't get it.

[Todays_Illusion]

55. I am not surprised you have now personally insulted me twice. Why is that ok?

[FSogol]

57. Turnabout is fair play?

"The highest form of ignorance is when you reject something you don't know anything about." - Wayne Dyer

[Todays_Illusion]

58. It will take a special kind of creative imagination to read what I typed as a personal insult.nt

[Octafish]

56. Guy's got the Aryan look.

Always a NAZI expression with the haircut to match.
