Boyle County Republican Party

Would that make it feel more like a briefing?" Lee: "I would like C-SPAN. I would like you to bring the transcribers. I would like you to go through with the decorum and with the rules...." Comer: "Are you trying to find information, or trying to embarrass the attorney general?" Lee: "Absolutely not. I think the attorney general is a woman who is completely able to defend herself, and I'm not attacking her. I'm questioning you. You run this place. What I'm asking you is....Will you commit to going as far as..." Comer: "I've already issued the subpoena..." Lee: "And this is not the deposition..." Comer: "You've wasted three minutes of everyone's time just kind of, bitching..." Lee: "Really? Wow! Bitching?"
