What a cockroach.
After hearing tearful testimony from Eric Nordstrom and Greg Hicks about the deadly attacks in Benghazi, Rep. Elijah Cummings offered these words of comfort:
Rep. Cummings to the three men giving eyewitness accounts of the Benghazi attack: "I feel your pain."

Cummings now babbling about "life being a part of death" and making "death a part of life." B.S.: "We all feel your pain." #benghazi

Rep. Cummings: Death is a part of life and we need to make life a part of death. #WTH #Benghazi

We couldn’t dream up something that sickening.

A slap in the face. Not only of the whistleblowers, but of the four brave men killed on September 11, 2012.
"Death is a part of life." Awesome. Shut up. #BenghaziHearings #Benghazi

And now, Rep. Cummings is lecturing us about life vs. death again. #Benghazi

Such inconvenient deaths.

Mr. Cummings, this is so far beyond "feeling everyone's pain." You're befouling the scope and tragedy of this testimony. #Benghazi
— Amy Miller (@ThatAmyMiller) May 8, 2013
"Sadly passed away," Rep. Cummings? They were murdered.
— Moe Lane (@moelane) May 8, 2013
They didn't just "pass away" Idiot #Benghazi
— Kathi (@14Kathi) May 8, 2013
Also, @ElijaheCummings is making this testimony about him. Sir, they didn’t “sadly pass away.” They were MURDERED by TERRORISTS. #jackass

Pinocchio Cummings: "Death is a part of life, gotta find a way to make life a part of death." SOMEONE GET THIS MORON OFF STAGE #Benghaiz

Elijah Cummings, "Death is a part of life." So now he's sing songing philosophy as if nothing could be done to save these people?
— Melissa Clouthier (@MelissaTweets) May 8, 2013
While death is a part of life; MURDER and TERRORIST ATTACKS should never be. Kindly GFY, Elijiah Cummings.
— LMR (@LilMissRightie) May 8, 2013
Well, he didn’t do that … but he did get the heck out of the room:
Yes=>RT @starchambermaid: Really he got up and left? RT @ConnieHair: Elijah Cummings just left the room. #Benghazi

Shame on you, Congressman.
