Gowdy said:
“There is a time to come and a time to go. This is the right time, for me, to leave politics and return to the justice system,” he said.
“Whatever skills I may have are better utilized in a courtroom than in Congress, and I enjoy our justice system more than our political system,” he said.

Lmaooooooooooo! Good one. :D
Rubio was born in the US making him a full on American citizen. Yes, as far as requirements to run, he is "qualified". Until we do away with the "all that are born on US soil are citizens" stuff, that's the way it is.
Who's in office? Schneiderman resigned last night.
It takes more than ONE person on a committee to get anything done. You act like Gowdy was the end all, be all of the investigations. Perfect example of armchair quarter backing. You don't have ANY idea what roadblocks Gowdy may have run into.
He resigned last night about 2 hours after the accusations came out. Yes, I would say he is gone.
Doesn't matter about the parent citizenship, anon. They are full fledged American citizens if they are born here. See below:
"Anchor baby" is a term, regarded by many as a pejorative, for a child born in the United States to a foreign national mother who herself has not been lawfully admitted for permanent residence. The term is generally used as a derogatory reference to the supposed role of the child, who automatically qualifies as an American citizen under jus soli and the rights guaranteed in the 14th Amendment.
Totally agree we need to scrap that. It's BS now and always has been.
Well DUH. That's exactly what I WAS doing; discussing the "shit" on this board. I'm not the one spouting crap that I can't prove. I merely said that YOU don't know for sure that Gowdy didn't do anything, after you stated it as a fact. I obviously have more of an understanding than you do as to what kind of cluster fuck it is to get anything done in our Government. Defensive, aren't we?
