I think you just described 73% of DC.

As usual, Gowdy did an awesome job. One of the good guys and Congress will be worse without him.
Gowdy makes a hell of a prosecutor...but what really came out of his stint in Congress?
Congress is mostly stupid assholes doing dumb bullshit for show, and people should have the balls to stand up to them, right or wrong.
I think there is some truth to this statement, but it's very nice to see congress act how they are supposed to on rare occasions.
I got news for you, the Democrats think Strzok did fine. Notice that he refused to answer the most important questions, claiming the FBI counsel so instructed him. This wasn't just Strzok stonewalling Congress, this was the FBI.
Well of course they do. They also think it's OK for all sorts of other, anti-social behavior like saying the president's child should be turned over to a sexual predator and calling the first lady a "feckless c***". That plays fine to their unhinged, extreme base but it isn't playing well with the rest of the country. It's not over for Strzok and Page. And it's not over for democrats. They may think a "blue wave" is coming in Nov and it might be. But I think the chances are better than 50-50 that the wave is going to be headed out to sea instead of towards shore.
This was really the point of the OP anyway. It wasn't meant to be a comment on the work of congress overall...it was meant to be a comment on Gowdy and Gohmert showing Strozk to be the lying scumbag he really is. And they did a fine job on this particular occasion. It's too bad some of you are so cynical with everything .gov that you can't see the brief flashes of good that do occur once every blue moon.Quote:

My last comment regarding cynicism wasn't directed at you, Irving. Sorry if it came across that way. Just cynical people in general. I get that way occasionally but I try not to let it become a lifestyle.
