I am watching her hearing testimony and in doing so I want make a stern statement about what I am watching!!!
Hearings on Capitol Hill have become nothing more than theater and a sad joke. It is time we change the rules governing these hearings. Democrats are destorying any semblence of decorum. First, they ask questions but then never allow an answer. Second, they stray way off topic to give absurd lectures for political soundbites. Third, they lie. Fourth, they show no interest in actually getting to the truth. Fifth, the 5 minute rule ends all discussion and reduces the entire hearing to nothing more than a squabble and a talking point for social media.
It is time we change the rules to enable a real discussion, a real debate, a real discovery with complete decorum and any elected offfical that denegrates others, slanders them, yell or scream with "Getto and Gutter antics", should be sanctioned, fined, taken off the committee, and forced to leave the room.
If hearings can't be civil, respectful and entirely focused on getting to the truth of the matter then then entire system is a sham. Frankly, Americans are sick of it all. We have taken one of the key purposes of being our representative and reduced it to a bar fight.
It is embarrssing and has become a worthless use of time and resources. It is infuriating and Americans have had enough it! Anyone agree with me?
Amen. I saw it too.
