(182,950 posts)"I didn't hear anything to believe that she did anything illegal," Florida Rep. Tom Rooney, a Republican helping to lead the panel's Russia invesigation, told CNN of Rice's testimony. He declined to discuss any of the contents of her classified remarks.
Rep. Trey Gowdy, a South Carolina Republican who is helping lead the House investigation, told the Daily Caller "nothing that came up in her interview that led me to conclude" that she improperly unmasked the names of Trump associates or leaked it to the press.
"She was a good witness, answered all our questions," Rep. Mike Conaway, the Texas Republican now running the House Russia probe, told CNN. "I'm not aware of any reason to bring her back."

Keep this in mind, friends, when you want to carp about a liberal giving conservatives a golden opportunity to complain. They'll carp and moan about anything. It doesn't matter if it's right, wrong, standard practice, devious underhanded move, or turning water into whine. Conservatives will make a federal case out of anything.
