Benghazi Committee Revealed as Sham, Members Reportedly Boozed and Played With Guns on the Job

A former investigator for the congressional committee investigating Benghazi (and investigating and investigating and investigating) is blowing the whistle, saying the panel was narrowly focused on attacking presidential candidate Hillary Clinton — which has been amazingly obvious for quite some time.

A former investigator with the Republican-led congressional committee examining the attacks in Benghazi in 2012 says he was fired after resisting pressure to narrowly focus his investigative work on Hillary Rodham Clinton.

But perhaps even more outrageous than this revelation is his description of what these committee members were doing with their free time:

Podliska, who said he was reprimanded for using his work email to invite colleagues to a nonwork event, said there was an “Animal House” atmosphere at the committee, but he was not part of it.

He described to CNN an office environment in which employees spent their days Web surfing and sometimes drinking at work. He said staffers joined a “gun buying club” for “chrome-plated, monogrammed, Tiffany-style Glock 9-millimeters,” and some would spend hours at a time at work designing the personalized weapons.

Your elected officials at work.
