yeah, it s a difficult argument to make. that s over a quarter of the gop conference, let s put that in context, that are on these committees that have had full access to the transcripts, that are sitting in on these closed-door depositions. but what i will tell you is republicans say they want a formal inquiry vote. that s something that did happen in both the clinton and the nixon impeachments. they say they want these to be out in a public sphere, they want people to be able to see what s going on behind closed doors. and they want to hear these witnesses in the public. they don t want democrats to be able to cherry-pick information and only release bits and pieces that they want the public to hear. but all that being said democrats are going to be releasing the transcripts. democrats are going to be having public hearings very soon. so republicans aren t going to be able to hide behind this argument much longer. at some point they are going to have to respond to these allegations
republicans, benghazi included, argue that this has been a secret kangaroo court? yeah, it s a cult argument to make. that s over a quarter of the gop conference, let s put that in context, that are on these committees that have had full access to the transcripts, that are sitting in on these closed-door depositions. but what i will tell you is republicans say they want a formal inquiry vote. that s something that did happen in both the clinton and the nixon impeachments. they say they want these to be out in a public sphere, they want people to be able to see what s going on behind closed doors. and they want to hear these witnesses in the public. they don t want democrats to be able to cherry-pick information and only release bits and pieces that they want the public to hear. but all than being said democrats are going to be releasing the transcripts. democrats are going to be having public hearings very soon. so republicans aren t going to be able to hide behind this argument much
