That was the point I was making, Republicans could have easily ordered an investigation into the uranium thing if they suspected any wrongdoing, people like Gowdy and Chaffetz won't have ignored such a bombshell.
and with ryan or boehner in charge that was not going to happen. fast and furious, benghazi, the irs targeting conservatives... its all a waste of type with boehner or ryan getting money from hillary's paymasters. you seem to think the democrats and establishment republicans are not on the same team 95 percent of the time.
Ryan or Boehner don't control the committees, once the chairman of each committee is appointed, they have full authority on how to proceed.
please give us your proof for that statement. I recall one of heads on of those committees saying his hands were being tied by boehner. Now he could have been lying... but I doubt it. I think these "leaders" have a lot to do with who gets called and how they proceed.
Who said that? Finance committees are very different than oversight committees where the chairman can ask investigative agencies to investigate anything they want.
Not with oversight committees which can order investigations, Speaker has more control over appropriations, not with things like supoena power and ordering investigations which is exclusive to the chairman of a committee.
do you just make shit up about everything? your pollution of this board with lie after lie is having the effect your team wants. I am thinking about not posting any more because you are so full of shit and I get tired of correcting it. "The source said that Gowdy and Chaffetz had decided together that Chaffetz’s panel would explore the email issue and Gowdy’s probe would stay “pure” to Benghazi. In mid-March, Chaffetz even announced plans to send a detailed inquiry to the State Department. But it didn’t happen, and the source said it was Boehner who quashed the Oversight Committee’s plans." https://www.theatlantic.com/politic...ged-the-history-of-the-benghazi-story/447747/
You are an idiot That article talks about Repubs setting up ANOTHER COMMITTEE "to have another House committee examine the matter of Mrs. Clinton’s emails" I am talking about the oversight committee asking a EXECUTIVE INVESTIGATIVE AGENCY like the FBI to look into the matter. How are they the same things?
I told you I had heard republican committee chariman saying Boehner was preventing them from doing things. I just showed you Chaffetz was even allowed to send a detailed inquiry to the state dept. Showing you to be dead ass wrong. Its irrelevant the article also spoke about Boehner interfering with committee creation. You made shit up and then you try to change the argument. you have no integrity you are as bad as the politicians in your party.
