U.S. Ambassador to Libya Killed in Rocket Attack (3 Viewers)

I guess " testified behind closed doors" doesn't mean what it used to mean...
A sham is still a sham, though.
Agreed. The fact that Obama and Clinton tried to sell it as it being started by an Internet video was a complete sham.
That was the point, at which, this became politicized....
Who cares? Seriously, what difference does it make?

It's sad that people still throw that out there as if it is somehow scandalous to be wrong about something and then, what?, not admit it as quickly as others would like. It's a manufactured scandal and always has been. Pathetic.
 
I guess you don't know the difference between a congressional hearing with experts and Sesame Street... My bad... You should be embarrassed, everyone in America should be embarrassed and outraged by these morons you call leaders...
Looking back at all the hearings, Sesame Street comes out far ahead.

 
Bump as a reminder that the same folks who were BENGHAZIIIIIIIIIING the last two years are now the same folks who have turned into record retention compliance nazis.

 
Podliska, who described himself as a conservative Republican, told CNN that he decided to come forward because he didn't feel the committee was carrying out its stated purpose to uncover the truth about the deaths of the four Americans who died in the September 11, 2012 attacks in Benghazi.
Podliska has dropped his claim that he was wrongfully terminated because of any stance related to Hillary or Benghazi.

Newly released documents - under court order.

State Department had originally claimed these documents were not responsive to requests for documents on Benghazi/

7:11 pm, 9/12/12:

SOS Hillary Clinton:

We know the attack in Libya had nothing to do with the film.  It was a planned attack – not a protest.
Egyptian Prime Minister Kandil:

“You’re not kidding. Based on the information we saw today we believe that group that claimed responsibility for this is affiliated with al-Qaeda.

In Cairo, a crowd gathered in front of the Embassy, the Marines pointed their guns, and the crowd dispersed.
Good point. Because in Cairo it was an actual spontaneous protest.

If armed men point guns at protestors they disperse. If armed men point guns at attacking militia, the militia keep attacking.

 
Documents continue to roll out.

September 11, 2012.

"Secretary's Call Sheet":

"Secretary's Call Sheet":

Armed extremists attacked U.S. Mission Benghazi on September 11, setting fire to the Principal Officer’s Residence and killing at least one American mission staff, Information Management Officer Sean Smith, on TDY from The Hague.

this is disgusting:

In March, the State Department quietly released records relevant to the Obama administration’s response to the September 11, 2012, Benghazi terrorist attack. Included are transcripts of the telephone call then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had on September 12, only hours after the attack ended, with then-Egyptian Prime Minister Hisham Kandil. As explained by Judicial Watch, whose Freedom of Information Act  lawsuit against the “most transparent administration in history” forced the belated disclosure, Mrs. Clinton flatly told Mr. Kandil, “We know the attack in Libya had nothing to do with the film. It was a planned attack – not a protest.

Kandil responded, “You’re not kidding. Based on the information we saw today, we believe the group that claimed responsibility for this is affiliated with al-Qaeda.”

Of course, “the film” Clinton was referring to was “Innocence of Muslims,” an obscure anti-Islamic video trailer that she, President Obama, and the administration tirelessly blamed for the attacks despite – let’s quote Clinton again – “know[ing] the attack in Libya had nothing to do with the film.”

and yet we jailed that guy that made the film.   broke into his house at midnight with a federal swat team and hauled him off to jail.

nice gov't you got there fella

 
Lot's of posts on this thread saying Hillary did not lie regarding the Benghazi episode .   Seems evident to me that she did.   What am I missing?

nobody cares.   everyone expects politicians to lie.   this wasn't some massive coverup.  it was a cluster#### of bad information and backpedaling.  after multiple investigations, the answer is still..."not much to see here."

So she didn't lie her #### off to the American people & congress?   Bad information?   Sounds like she had the correct info within hours but lied about it.  I guess this bothers me more than others.

Which politician doesn't bother you when they lie?  I hope you aren't under the impression that any of them don't lie?

 
Apparently a Hillary supporter that is not offended by out & out lies to the American people, congress, &  the relatives of the four dudes that dies.
This is a serious can of worms if you are going to set the bar at politicians out & out lying.

nope.  just not a pollyanna that's shocked that we aren't given the full truth.  how much money have we wasted on multiple investigations, even partisan investigations, that came up empty?

let it go.

 
She isn't my guy/girl.

Have you aimed this critique at yours?  Didn't think so.
I Don't have a "yours" right now.  Pretty conservative.   Really don't appreciate the lying to us regardless of political ideals & leanings.   Apparently I'm too thin skinned.   ACA was passed on a whole pack of lies; pretty giant ones I might add.   Won't forget that boondoggle ever.  Apparently some are more forgiving when lied to your face.  Good for you.

There should be an investigation. 
If there is an investigation they should keep at it until they have ALL of the information.  We wouldn't want to cut short the truth by allowing a principal party to hold back information.

 
A lot of whining over a few dead Americans coming from people who don't think twice about sending thousands to their deaths.
I'm confused.  Are you saying people who supported the combat action should be ok with the Dept of State's handling of Benghazi? 

 
I get the feeling that most of "GET HER!!!" crowd are the ones who have to hang out at bars until last call desperately hoping for that, ultimately regrettable hook up. 

 
In an interview with Bill Hemmer on Fox 'News' May 17th, Trey Gowdy finally admitted the truth about Benghazi ...

Gowdy told Hemmer, "Whether or not they could have gotten there in time, they couldn't. I don't think there's any question about that."

 
According to the letter sent Sunday, the committee's former chief Republican investigator concluded in January that "nothing could have affected what occurred in Benghazi."

 
Our friends in this thread are waiting for Rush and Hannity to feed them their talking points for this afternoon.
