The Republican chairmen of the House Oversight and House Judiciary Committees laid out the case for perjury charges against Hillary Clinton in a letter sent to the U.S. Attorney in Washington, D.C. on Monday.

Utah Rep. Jason Chaffetz and Virginia Rep.

I am old enough to remember Watergate very well.  In 1974 honesty, integrity, and morals meant something to the voting public.

In 2016, not so much unfortunately.  Look at the two candidates as an example.

That is exactly why Benedict Ryan will allow it.

I agree. And remember that Hitlery was fired from the Watergate hearings for unethical acts. She has no conscience. I bet she was like the "bad seed" as a child.
