What is Congressman Trey Gowdy (R-SC) yelling about today? And if that name seems familiar, it is because he was in the news about a year ago for comparing same sex marriage to incest and on Fox “News” a few days ago referring to Nancy Pelosi as “mind numbingly stupid.” And then a few days after that, he opined that Nancy Pelosi should “see a mental health professional.” Today, however, he has had a rough go of it since the Supreme Court took away his Freedom so he is really letting it all hang out (and the NRO was kind enough to post the video in its entirety because of Journalism.) You see, he just wants the TRUTH about Fast and Furious, is that so much to ask? Just the truth about how some agent got killed (even though as it turns out it maybe wasn’t quite so nefarious?) and the truth about why this is all HAPPENING, is that so much to ask?? IS IT??
Rep. Gowdy starts out by yelling about TRUTH and the LAW and JUSTICE and then veers into a tirade about what it’s like to sit down with the parent of a murdered child, and how if those parents deserve the truth about what happened to their child then for some reason HE deserves the truth about what happened in a bunch of emails. Not the emails that Fortune Magazine reported on, OTHER emails that apparently may not even exist! But it doesn’t matter because HE CAN HANDLE THE TRUTH! Even if it contains FACTS, which most Republicans are generally not fond of, so that is commendable.

Sound is broke on the link and I am cool with that.
Wait, can any of you hear it?
Never mind, my bad. It seems that even though it comes with a little plastic shot glass, I shouldn't abuse cough syrup.
I can hear it. I hope your link stays broken.
I heard it.
Wait, the NRA tells us that guns don't kill people, people kill people.
So, it's corporations we should blame?
I hope all your little ones are recovering well.
Enjoying a little purple drank are we. If you listened to it you would need the whole bottle.
Mmm, time travel in a bottle.
What! I can't hear you.
*snicker*
Shot glass? Don't you drink it straight outta the bottle?
His father Curt Gowdy, was much less of a flaming douchebag.
DAMN, 10 minutes earlier ….
I meant no offense to Flaming Americans pDog…
Pretty sure this is one guy who can't handle the truth.
Move over, Pericles!
Ann Curry would have gotten the TRUTH!!!!!!!!!!!! But Holder had her fired!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank goodness he didn't say vagina!
Knock, knock…
Who's there?
Issa.
Vagina.
Knock, knock.
Vagina.
YOU LIE!!1!
Someone really wants to be the treasurer of Stark County.
Needs to turn off his Caps Lock.
I thought we weren't supposed to be nosy.
So *that's* what the CNN reporter is saying after the HCR report epic fail…
The "R-South Carolina Greenville, Spartanburg" next to his name tells me everything I need or care to know about this asshole.
"MADNESS?!? THIS…IS…SPARTA(NBURG)!!!"
In the South, the further you get from the coast, the more humorless and batshit crazy people get.
Spartanburg and Greenville are way the heck inland.
I know the place – I worked Greenville as a standup on a 4-week Southern tour a couple of times in the late '80s and in 2003 I was sent to Newberry for 9 months running an office, a time that really let me get to know the area. You couldn't get me to drive through that POS state again.
I hear that Upstate is where the real crazy resides.
Greenville is upstate – it's the home of Bob Jones University and they've been breeding and refining crazy for a long, long time.
I may have told this story before on here but I shall tell it again. It is a true story.
The university was seeking to acquire land surrounding the campus to add buildings. Dr. Bob, Jr. visited a local homeowner and told her that God wanted her to donate her house and property to the university. She said, "Oh really? I spoke to him just this morning and he didn't say a word about it."
Yes, yes. All of the comments are true. I am currently in this area. We Democrats put up a sacrificial lamb to be slaughtered by the Republicans during election season.
I quit going to the gym because every TV was set on Fox news. I could go on. I am eagerly awaiting certain inevitable events to occur so that I can get the flock out of here.
Kermit Goes to Washington

Everybody Loves Raymond Goes to Washington
His nickname should be something like "Chigger" or "Corncob McNASCAR".
Here's to hoping "Corncob McNascar" will be someone's username by the end of the week.
No. I won't do it. I just flat-out plain won't.
And you can't MAKE me.
We're waiting, BMW.
I got my username from a "Will & Grace" episode, and that's the way it's gonna stay.
I might be willing to go with Corncob McPdog myself, but I'm afraid it would disappoint all the other flaming Asshole-Americans out there.
Starfangledmcnascar does have a certain ring to it.
"Cornhole".
I think we can all agree, it's been a tough day for the Corncob McNASCAR's of this world.
OT, but hmm, they already added What Do You Thinks about the ACA being upheld.
Also, some of them veer into pretty weird territory: "How do you feel about public schools raising their funds by selling adspace on report cards?" Umm, what? That's a thing?
Fast and Furious? No…Slow and Silly.
Torpid and Tedious
Dawdling and Dull
Sluggish and Stupid
Hey, this is fun! Much more fun than listening to wingnuts in Congress, at least…
Imagine if the letter had been written on EPA stationary with EPA letterhead!
Pitchy!
I was thinking his speech would be much improved by adding the words "in bed" in strategic places. But it isn't really necessary. It's all in the intonation.
Do you want a third of it?…half of it?…no, ALL OF IT! I WANT ALL OF IT…OH…OH…
Needz moar "That's what she said"s.
I can't wait to hear this guy's reaction to the Chief Justice Roberts Blackmail Scandal.
"That letter was written on America's stationery".
Do we still make paper in America?
Yes, but only out of aborted Chinese fetuses.
Trey Gowdy sounds like a pretty gay name to me. I don't have any evidence but now it's out there.
I just read on the internet that Trey Gowdy is gay.
Me too! I've read it three places! It must be true!
It'd be irresponsible not to speculate.
Say howdy, Trey Gowdy!
no matter WHAT! even if it turns out that I LOOK LIKE A COMPLETE ASSHOLE and I'm wrong, we will exhaust all of our time, energy and tax-payer dollar to find out that NOTHING is going on. Just like we did with WMD's in Iraq – TRUTHINESS!
So if I go with GOPer projection then basically this is a very stupid man who wants to cornhole his male relatives, desires mental professional help but is too much of a chickenshit to go because he also wants to sell illegal guns to people who shoot kids made of straw.
I got through about 3 and a half minutes of this. I'll listen to the rest of it after he reaches sexual maturity and his voice changes.
He doesn't even look all that old. Just crazy.
Crazy does not necessarily come with old.
He's only 48. He just started greying early. He's a man of slight build and it makes him look quite young.
“Good teacher. He really seems to care. About what, I have no idea.”
Oh, well played, Sir! Stirling, spot-on reference analogy.
Hell, even the Russian judge has you in 5plus territory.
I see no one on the republican side has read the Fortune article on this shit. Never let the truth get in the way of a political operation.
http://features.blogs.fortune.cnn.com/2012/06/27/…
Fortune Magazine = socialist!
But, you see, the Fortune editors and reporters are being blackmailed by the same people who went after Justice Roberts. They must be stopped now!
He wants the TRUTH? Here's his truth!
Astonishing ‘Red Sea Crossing’ video – $4.95 today only!
Robotic submarine cameras reveal ‘hundreds of Egyptian chariots strewn across the sea floor’ http://www.wnd.com/2012/06/astonishing-red-sea-cr…
He probably already has it though, along with the DVD about the discovery of the coffin of James, brother of Jesus, in Jerusalem. (Coffin evidently has that on it and then adds 'Yes, THAT Jesus!')
You can tell it had to be the real Jesus, because the inscriptions are in English, which nobody but the real Jesus spoke back then.
I read a rumor that Trey Gowdy is gay. I read it just now, but he hasn't denied it, not that he should have to, but I think we are entitled to know.
Chascates, serve to you.
hey, his name is Trey? And he is Jesusy? Only closet gay will do.
I think I saw that, too. Don't remember where but I'm pretty sure that Trey Gowdy is gay.
I hope Congressman Gowdy tells his therapist about his yelling problem.
I hope his therapist has earplugs.
My ears lasted almost a minute before they threw up all over my neck.
I saw that Dali painting once.
Crazy Older Man: Sen John Cornyn on PBS Newshour just said employers would drop insurance for employees and pay the fine if it was cheaper.
He must have gotten that from Limpy. When I heard of the SC decision, I tuned my radio to Limbaugh, hoping for a meltdown; he was ranting, but not in meltdown mode, and was spouting stuff like "won't be able to chose your doctors," apparently he isn't aware of insurance companies using "in-network" doctors. He also mentioned that about companies paying the fine, but mentioned the exchanges. So, while employers may stop offering insurance, employees will be able to obtain insurance through the exchanges. Seems like a win/win situation to me, but I guess that's why the GOPers don't like it. The middle class wins.
I caught part of his show and he was going on about how the burden is on the states which are broke, etc. The Medicaid portion is paid for by the feds 100% for 3 years (I think) and then 90% thereafter.
Now Bill McCollum is on talking about how this will ruin Medicare. Jeebus, whatever crap they say will be believed wholesale by their followers so even those who benefit enormously won't believe it isn't horrible. A la 'keep your government hands off my Medicare/Social Security'.
Omigod! That's right. The Achilles heel of the whole plan. If that starts happening the whole plan might be a disaster! And if it did turn out that way, there would be nothing we could do!!
Except raise the fine.
Wingnuts are so entertaining when they are caught off guard and start spinning before Talking Point Central has given them the lines of the day.
Oh goody! It's my teabagger Congress Critter trying to be the next Strom Thurmond.
I'll guarantee he types in all caps.
Wtf is he shouting for? Dude, you have a fucking microphone.
Yes, but he has no idea how to turn it on.
Which, come to think of it, might be an issue for him in other areas as well…
You'd think he'd know what to do with a phallic object pointed at his mouth.
I don't even have to watch it. All I need is R-SC to know it will be fucking pitiful.
Even sadder than this video at the World Nut Doily is the once-esteemed National Geographic lending its name to this show on its National Geographic Channel.
I swear, the reality show model (low production costs, high viewership) has ruined what little quality television there is out there. Even MTV-style editing such as quickly speeding the video so the person is almost running has been adopted by PBS shows as well as super quick cuts, idiotic setups, OH FUCK IT!
Time to grab that historic artifact known as a book.
"…a woman who was blindfolded holding nothing but a set of scales and a sword…"
Even when the occasional Republican goes for a woman, they find a way to keep it kinky…
And, when Ashcroft was Attorney General, a heavy bolt of fabric over her torso.
Also, the guy sitting behind and just to the left of this guy is clearly thinking "FFS, finish up already…"
From the Wiki:Trey Gowdy signed the Contract From America, which aims to "Defund, repeal and replace the recently passed government-run health care".
Well, at least we know why he has his panties all up in a knot today.
We shouldn't let ourselves get distracted just because that well known Marxist rag Fortune has come out and pointed out that there is little to care about here. Like a journalist at FOX News, we must dig for the real truth, not just the truth based upon facts and logic.
So, what is Obama trying to hide? Was it that the boarder agents discovered how he was able to sneak into this country from Kenya across the Mexican border with nothing but a Koran on his back? How he was aided in illegally getting into this country by Osama bin Laden, who was funded by a grant from George Soros? That after illegally entering this country, Bill Ayers went about making up a false birth certificate and birth announcements in the Honolulu papers? Wasn't the obvious clue that it was all made up the fact that there is supposedly a town name "Honolulu?"
Congress may not be able to get to the bottom of this, but one man can: Donald Trump! The truth is out there…., the truth is out there.
I'm picturing Mulder looking at Scully, thumbing at teh Donald, with a WTF's with this guy look on his face.
Whoa!!! Irony totally lost on this fella ….
I think that Attorney General Holder should consider it a badge of honor to be held in contempt of Congress. I, too, hold this Congress in contempt.
I don't blame Congressman Trey Gowdy for being unhinged, but who elects these nutz?
Inorite?
Merry Christmas, holy shit, where's the tylenol?
Rep. Gowdy,
I happen to know that Julian Assange will give you all the emails you can handle, if you want to make a deal.
First, WTF? No please, I feel like I'm back in 4th grade diagramming sentences for Sister Anne Mary and I cannot figure out whether or not any of it makes sense.
Second, about the voice. Will puberty take care of that?
I hate it when people waste America's stationary, you know, for shopping lists and hangman games and shit. But America's email account is a free-for-all.
I heard him talking about some blindfolded naked chick on a scale and then I turned it off. WTF is he reading from??? alt.sex.bondage.duct-tape or something?????
That voice of his can only be caused by having an AK 47 shoved up your butt.
Reminded me of Chris Farley, when he lived in a van by the river.
This is the same Trey Gowdy who fought tooth and nail for Pat Tillman's family to learn the truth about his death in Afghanistan, right?
No.
this guy is more excitable than a siamese cat.
Fast and Furious pushed me over the edge. I've been a lifelong, life member of the NRA, but La Pierre has taken such a hard line 'tarded view of this, I just can't take it anymore. I sent them a resignation email last night. They got back to me this morning–I can't resign by email, I have to send them a letter. So fucking be it..
Nothing a session with Magneto can't cure.
Trey Gowdy's Emotionally Disturbed Speech on Holder Contempt.
Also, I've never met any one nicknamed "Trey" (or "Smitty") who wasn't a total jerk.
They scheduled the vote to mesh up with the Supreme Court ruling, hoping that it'd be a one-two punch against the president, and they only got one of them. Boo-fuckin'-hoo.
Ah yes, the pitfalls of over politicking. Republicans, you're doing it wrong.
Keep fuckin' that gamecock, South Crackalacky.
Trey Gowdy guzzles cum.
I saw that in the Wall Street Journal, I think. Or maybe it was part of that Fortune article.
Oh.. accountability. Nice of you to ask. I'm sure if Holder just said "I don't recall" to every question then that would give you "the truth" then?
Sorry, I cannot take seriously statements made by a person who is named after a dog.
Too fast, too furious.
"Fast and Furious": how the Wingtards fap when they hear moronic drivel like this.
Remember people: Contempt of Congress is your Patriotic Duty!
"Experienced prosector?" Dude makes Doogie Howser look like an old man.
Tower of Power! Bump City!
Here's a great song for Mr. Obama's campaign events: "Don't Change Horses in the Middle of the Stream!"
Meanwhile, that dude should just stop trying to cut his own hair with a weedwhacker.
This is all just stealth advertising for Fox's new reality show about show biz, Cast & Curious.
Trey Gowdy does not know what a microphone does.
Once again, the Teatard definition of 'stupid' is someone who is not stupid enough to believe Jesus was a dinosaur cowboy.
IRON-Y!!!
Abortion you glad I didn't say vagina?
