Well, one congressman fessed up.

Representative John Mica (R-Florida) just admitted why this interrogation is happening. He said it’s because he and his republican colleagues have to go home this weekend and ‘splain to their donors why the Republican director of the FBI couldn’t be brought on board for the failed witch hunt, and Republicans HATE having to be accountable to anyone for anything.

1. Yeah, well, lots of strange things happen in Mica's district, so now is a good

time to show that he knows where to draw the line.

2. All of the RW asshats are really showing their colors here. A bunch of blathering bullshitters,

looking stupider and stupider as the hearing wears on.

4. But on the other hand, Matt Cartwright, D-PA, and Ranking Member Cummings, D-MD,

plus Stephen Lynch, D-MA, Bonnie Watson Coleman, D-NJ, Brendan Boyle, D-PA, Brenda Lawrence, D-MI, Stacey Plaskett, D-Virgin Islands, Peter Welch, D-VT, Michelle Lujan Grisham, D-NM, Tammy Duckworth, D-IL, Mark deSaulnier, D-MA, and MY guy, Ted Lieu, D-CA, performed ADMIRABLY!!!

They brought out some MOST intriguing info about these big red blocks of headers that appeared at the top of a piece of paper or email print-out to denote highly sensitive material, AS WELL AS the little bitty &quot c)" that could be and was included a block of text or paragraph or phrase to denote a bit of sensitive material in that particular part of the text.

I can easily see how such a small mark - that little &quot c)" - might be missed.

5. 'Twas beautiful to watch. They'd obviously coordinated their respective lines of questioning.

Clear, precise and destructive of the RW memes.

They shot down the prevailing bullshit point by point.

7. I will have to dig up the video of the hearing. I started watching it this morning, but....

....after about 15 minutes had to turn it off it was so disturbingly partisan on the part of Chafitz and the other right wing clowns.

3. Their simple and honest answer would be ...

"I don't know ... It worked on some Democrats! Look at DU ... we got a bunch of them on board!"
