I watched a little bit of the proceedings on CSPAN last night. My observation and opinion..
Seemed to me that the Democrats were hell bent on diverting the attention to the previous administrations failed attempts at a similar program.
The Republicans wanted to try and keep focus on the crime currently under scrutiny. This seeming to me, being genuinely concerned with gathering all available evidence, disregarding who might be implicated.
This affirming my belief that the Democrats in congress are more interested in protecting their flock than the pursuit of the truth and justice. Disgusting
JMHO
They should continue with the contempt vote, and go for criminal prosecution, to the very top, and then indict whom ever they can, finding those responsible accessories to murder. This might give those who want to take our rights, by any dastardly means necessary, pause to think.
