Operation Zero Footprint ....
« on: August 09, 2014, 01:27:17 PM »

Is this for real ? 

Says we know most of the answers on Benghazi and those we don't will be covered as CIA secrets ...

The Conservative Tree house
Grab a cup of coffee and you’ll see how the Trey Gowdy special committee is really a waste of time.   There is no benefit to be gained from house hearings that will never be allowed to disclose the operational aspects of covert CIA intelligence ops.

Nothing will come of any of these hearings. Issa and Gowdy will in the end do nothing except further their popularity with people that already like them.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

We know Issa's hearings are nothing but grandstanding opportunities for Issa and his cronies.  I suspect it will be much the same with Gowdy.  He is a politician, after all.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

IMO, it's more of a "do what we can, so when they refuse to act it's all on them" situation.  Leave the stonewallers with no opportunity to say we didn't hand them everything on a silver platter for them to ignore and/or cover up.

Maybe it's time to re-post the President's  Memorandum to Department Heads touting how "open" this government will be.

The first sentence is quite accurate.  However, everything after that...   :facepalm:
