Hillary Clinton feeding frenzy: Three GOP-controlled House committees are looking into Hillary's email practices

What a fucking joke.

These jackasses have no interest in governing.

-------------

Now that the Hillary Clinton email flap has blown up into the biggest news story in Washington, seemingly every House Republican wants in on the action.

No fewer than three House committees have launched or are considering probes into Clinton’s email practices, a feeding frenzy that could allow the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee to cast the investigations as yet another partisan witch-hunt.

It could also become a problem for Speaker John Boehner and his leadership team, which has made a point of trying to prevent multiple committees from tripping over themselves investigating the same topic. They’re now working to keep the Clinton investigations on distinct tracks.

Call me silly....where are the probes on the Iran letter the Senate GOP so gleefully wrote? I do believe, let me try to put this politely, they should go probe themselves.

Dear Gawd! What a ship of fools they have become.

Does she testify before their committees or risk being declared in contempt of Congress?

She had an obligation of transparency and accountability as SOS and elected secrecy.

12. Thanks for saying this AK. I'm ashamed so many Democrats don't feel the same.

Our party is the better party. The ones we can trust. Here we have an SoS who was not only dealing with foreign countries, but also corporations doing business in foreign countries, & with a private foundation accepting donations from foreign countries. And she uses private email. Out of her basement.

Its wrong. And we shouldn't being trying to justify it or say it isn't a big deal. Because it is. Its a travesty.
