https://www.yahoo.com/news/turns-benghazi-bad-boy-trey-143003258.html?nhp=1Congressman Trey Gowdy of South Carolina, the lop-headed Javert of what's left of the Benghazi, Benghazi, BENGHAZI! Affair, hasn't been quite right since the day that Hillary Rodham Clinton spent 11 hours routing Gowdy and some of his dimmer gumshoes on national television. I think he's lost a little focus because, on Tuesday, he fairly well admitted that he's been presiding over a manure wagon for nearly two years. Per MSNBC via USA Today and Fox News:
There was nothing the military could have done on the night of Sept. 11, 2012, to stop the attacks in Benghazi, Libya, but the special House committee investigating the terrorist incident will continue to probe the Pentagon's actions that night, the committee's chairman said Tuesday. "Whether or not they could have gotten there in time, I don't think there is any issue with respect to that. They couldn't," Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., told Fox News.
Great. Let's wrap this up and get a beer, whaddya say?
There clearly is nothing more to investigate here. (There hasn't been anything to investigate here ever, but that's beside the point.) Besides, it's time to investigate Ben Rhodes now anyway, so Trey Gowdy can have another chance to make a ridiculous ass of himself in public. From BPR:
Either way, Gowdy was just as upset over the attack on Cotton, pointing out that Cotton served combat tours in Afghanistan and Iraq while "Ben Rhodes was navigating the mean streets of a creative writing curriculum." "His background is in creative writing," he added. "That's great if you're working for the Hallmark or the Lifetime Channels. It's not so good when you're the national security adviser for the president."
John Kerry must be getting a good laugh over that one.
