The Republicans there will make as many wild, unsupported accusations as they can.
The democrats will try to get actual facts into the testimonies, but will have their mics shut off, or be ruled "out of order."
And finally the democrats will say "Enough!!!" and walk out.
A "report" will be made by the republicans, one that is so deceptive as to be worthless.
Meanwhile the GOP will continue raising campaign $$$ on this fake "scandal."
The Second Stone
(2,900 posts)and the Republicans doing basically the same thing by moving out of Issa's committee, both parties have decided that this is where the battle is going to be fought leading up to the election. It is good ground for the Democrats because there is non way to prove LIHOP or MIHOP on the part of the White House. With Grayson, a skilled trial lawyer, on the committee he will be able to hold a presser after every hearing should the Republicans do the equivalent of cutting off mics. This will be a disaster for the Republicans on every front except Fox and right wing radio.
