But she hasn't, and the beat goes on. She keeps insisting she has of course, until more emails keep turning up.
At any rate, to argue that her withholding emails should not be a concern of the committee seems counterintuitive, at least to my tiny little brain. If I was smarter and not intellectually inferior, it might make me think she was incompetent, hiding something, or both.
We can agree to disagree. You think it's a targeted attempt because of a mush mouthed congressman, and I think it's a legitimate investigation. I'm cool with leaving it there.
You can leave it there. But for the record, you're not qualified to change and voice my thoughts, Jimbone.
As I've said many times, i think a legitimate investigation was warranted.
And, I never said what should or shouldn't be a concern of the special committee.
If emails with new Benghazi-specific information that incriminates anyone in the Obama Administration exist, they apparently haven't been unearthed yet.
If something like that is turned up later, there are Congressional means for investigating and addressing it at that time, without having to keep one of the longest such special investigative committee in history in-tact and funded by the tax payers until then.
I think McCarthy probably meant what he said, but didn't mean to say it. I think he was bragging about how the special committee has been used to damage Clinton's campaign (though it's produced no evidence that Clinton is directly culpable for the Benghazi tragedy or tried to cover up wrong doing by herself or others). That's politics. But, I don't think tax-payers should be paying for it at this point.
That's my opinion, clearly stated by the one person qualified to do so, regardless of the fact that it doesn't suit your fancy.
