Elijah Cummings Is The Dems Benghazi Warrior Or Something

It’s actually rare that an article really ticks me off: I expect bad behavior and moonbattery from Progressives. This, though, is disgusting

Democrats’ Benghazi warrior

He’s the man who helped bring you Sandra Fluke.

Rep. Elijah Cummings is the Democrats’ top guy on the new Benghazi select committee, but fighting Republican-driven scandals is old hat to the pugnacious Maryland lawmaker.

Cummings understands the twists and turns of the Benghazi controversy just as well as many Republicans. For three years, he has served as Rep. Darrell Issa’s chief sparring partner on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, one of the panels where the scandal first caught fire.

The former prosecutor, who speaks in a booming baritone and is from a safe Baltimore-based seat, has earned a reputation among Democrats for besting Issa on a number of Obama administration controversies ranging from Benghazi, to the Internal Revenue Service targeting of conservative groups, to Fast and Furious.

Cummings’ work has made him a champion to the left — where he’s called in noted witnesses like Fluke to testify — and a respected foe to some on the right. So while Democrats have called Benghazi nothing more than a political game, by picking Cummings, they’re showing they still plan to play.

So, let me get this straight: he’s being lauded for doing all he can to block investigations into government wrongdoing, to stop those investigations, to minimizing those investigations. Fast and Furious saw several American federal law enforcement officers murdered by those guns, as well as the hundreds of Mexican citizens murdered and wounded by them (so far). The IRS illegally targeted citizens. Then, we get to Benghazi: you know who were real warriors? Tyrone Woods, Sean Smith, and Glen Doherty, who put their lives on the line, and gave them.

So, while Cummings is “giving us Sandra Fluke” and doing all he can to block getting to the truth about Benghazi, comfortably ensconced in his Washington, D.C. area home, making lots of money and living the high life thanks to his cushy “job” as a federally elected official (and forgetting his oath of office in service to Progressive politics), real warriors gave their lives in service to their country.

    Teach there have been 12 investigations so far. Do you think this is going to reveal anything new ?
    If you actually wanted to learn more google Blue Mountain Security and you will see why/how the security failed. All that blarney that came from the “security contractors” was chased back to ONE person who wasn’t at either the mission or annex. He was at his sea side villa. The thing about “cover-ups Teach is that they fail, too many people one will talk. NO ONE has come forward with anything on this one.

    Democrats and Socialists: protecting you from truth while destroying liberty since Day 1.

    12 investigations already? Wow you would think that a government lackey would have gotten the truth out by now. Yet once again our wonderful representative’s in power would have declared “Nothing here just move along” exactly like:
    IRS debacle
    the VA scandal
    Fast and furious
    illegal immigration
    climate what ever the hell its being called today
    Iran
    Iraq
    ” If you like your ‘insert specific entity’ you can keep it” ( countless times)
    ‘you will save $2500 dollars a year”
    “I promise to defend the constitution form foreign and domestic enemies” (twice on this one so far)
    solar energy
    wind mill energy
    ETC….
    And those that do believe wonder why we cant believe them.
