BY ANDY BOROWITZ
WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)Washington was in turmoil on Tuesday morning as a House select committee abruptly cancelled its Benghazi hearings shortly after former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton announced that she was withdrawing from the Presidential race.
...............
As you know, we have been preparing for this weeks hearings for months, Gowdy said. However, after meeting with fellow committee members over the past four minutes, weve come to the conclusion that we know all we need to know about Benghazi.
Gowdy flatly denied that the decision to cancel the long-awaited Benghazi hearings had anything to do with Clintons sudden departure from the race. We wish her well in whatever her future endeavors may be, he said.
But shortly after Gowdys announcement, Clinton called an impromptu press conference at 9:13 to announce that she was jumping back into the race. I was just trying to prove a point, she told reporters, before heading off to campaign stops in Iowa and New Hampshire.
