I'm disappointed, but not surprised.

[mystery-ak]

Very disappointed and not surprised either....just damn

Trey needs to stay in DC and actually accomplish something.

Everyone lauded him for his investigative prowess but where are the actual prosecutions? He's let the foot off the proverbial gas pedal every time.

Very true. All show and no results.
Fast Furious -- nothing
IRS -- nothing
Benghazi -- nothing
Emails -- nothing

Batting zero for four

It's even worse than that.

Not only do the perps walk free, that's bad enough, but nobody, zip, zero, nada, nobody has ever been prosecuted for anything at all. Even people who lied to his face under oath, and lied to Congress, even after they are caught they just laugh, flip a finger and walk away.

And nothing ever happens. There's not even a fall guy. They don't care enough to even pretend they are serious.

Years have passed, and they keep getting away with it.

Ditto.

Eric Holder was referred to the local Washington, DC, US Attorney for contempt of COngress. 

Nothing happened because the US Attorney is a Democrat.

Congress can't prosecute anybody. They can make referrals,but with a Democrat Attorney General, don't expect anything.

The lack of awareness on this site of the process to actually bring someone into the dock is astounding.

  I shouldn't be surprised I guess, but I'm really beginning to think it's curtain time for this country.

[truth_seeker]

The main purpose of Congressional Oversight Committees is NOT to prosecute. It is to review topics, for potential legislation.

Because Trey Gowdy supports Marco Rubio?

The hysteria has ramped up of late, which must mean the Trumpster-Divers are getting nervous.

They should.

What a complete misinterpretation of what this endorsement really means. But one must consider the source for whom everything from sunsets to the tides is Trump, Trump, Trump.

[Mod1]

this is not a thread about Trump. Let's keep it that way.

Edit: You've had your warning. Do it again, it's a three day ban.

Useless to mention the repeated and endless failure of the Republicans. They are better than Houdini with excuses and deflection.

And the song is always the same. We tried our best but XYZ, and we couldn't win.

Please do not insult me by implying that I thought Gowdy was going to prosecute someone. I see that I have to talk slowly and to be more clear.

Results. It is all about results. And there are none. There never is.
Anyone who loses 100% of the time is either stupid, or is playing for the other side.

You don't know how the process works.  I suspect many here don't.  No surprise.

I know EXACTLY how the process works! The big money donors call the tune and their minions dance!

Of course.  Everybody's bought off. Nobody in Washington has any integrity.

Do you know how stupid that implication is? 

[jmyrlefuller]

It's perfectly true. You don't get to DC without selling your soul.

With all due respect, that's just silly.

Of course not all! But certainly enough!

There are a few good men of integrity in Washington but unfortunately not nearly enough of them to make a bit of difference.

Conservatives chew up and spit out their heroes at an alarming rate.  It wasn't that long ago that Paul Ryan, and Marco Rubio were the darlings of the right.  Heads up Senator Cruz...you're probably next.

What's the difference between a conservative patriot and a squishy RINO?  One re-election.
