Says "We already did it and found nothing."

Doesn't mention Devin Nunes.

1. I think the republicans can find someone brighter than McCarthy to be minority leader

But nope

[rsdsharp]

4. Actually, no.

The choice was between McCarty and "Gym" Jordan, so McCarthy wins. His IQ approaches room temperature.

7. Sure they can!!!

Two dead batteries and an off switch, would be a much better choice!!!!

[rsdsharp]

8. I think you have to be a member of the House to be elected minority leader.

What district do those guys represent?

[CatMor]

2. Think the repubs would have more important ....

things to do than investigate Hillary Clinton's emails non-stop.

3. Uhhm...no you fucking haven't! Asshole!

You had a Republican chairman running interference. If that's your idea of investigation, I pray you are my prosecutor if I ever get busted for buying weed.

5. Gee, I wonder why

He was caught on tape saying that he believes that Russia was paying Trump.

Maybe he will be called to question why he thought that.

6. One of his many statements on Benghazi.

Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.), the likely successor to House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio), told Fox News’s Sean Hannity explicitly on Tuesday night that the Clinton investigation was part of a “strategy to fight and win.”

He explained: “Everybody thought Hillary Clinton was unbeatable, right? But we put together a Benghazi special committee, a select committee. What are her numbers today? Her numbers are dropping. Why? Because she’s untrustable. But no one would have known any of that had happened, had we not fought.”

9. We can solve the Trump problem with two votes.....

Wanna move on McCarthy? Two votes. That's it. Otherwise, buckle the fuck up.

10. I wonder if he realizes we know how to walk and chew gum at the same time. n/t

11. He Can't

So he probably cannot fathom others could do so.

12. but what does Ben Ghazi say?

I seem to remember that Ben Ghazi fellow being really, really focused on uncovering every nuance of every fact or rumor or will o' wisp imagined by the GOP.

It would be irresponsible if the Democrats were less enthusiastic in their investigations. If investigations into these matters are concluded before 2024, the GOP might accuse Democrats of being lax in their duty to truth, justice, and the American Way (tm).
