White House sending Benghazi emails to Senate
By Pam Benson
The White House has agreed to turn over to the Senate Intelligence Committee additional e-mails and intelligence reports related to the lethal attack on the U.S. mission in Benghazi, Libya, according to a congressional source.
The source said some of the materials have already been received by the panel and others "will be provided shortly."
Republican senators have threatened to hold up the nomination of John Brennan as CIA director until they receive e-mails exchanged between the White House and the spy agency concerning public talking points about the deadly attack last September 11.
U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice relied on those talking points to explain the Obama administration's version of events several days after the armed assault. Her televised comments ignited an election-year controversy, fueled by Republicans, over whether the administration was being truthful about the nature of the attack.
Rice said it apparently grew from a demonstration over an anti-Muslim film, but it was later disclosed that it was a terror assault.
U.S. Ambassador to Libya Christopher Stevens was one of four Americans killed.
The CIA's original draft of talking points linked individuals associated with al Qaeda to the attack. But the final version changed the al Qaeda reference to extremists.
Some Republicans have accused the administration of deliberately downplaying the attack to protect the Obama administration in the middle of a presidential election.
The lawmakers have been unsatisfied with what they say is conflicting information from the administration about who was responsible for the change in the talking points although the CIA eventually said it changed them during discussions among various agencies to protect classified information and for legal reasons.
National Security Council spokesman Tommy Vietor said the White House has been talking to the intelligence committee about its Benghazi requests and will continue to do so, but there is nothing to announce at this point.
Vietor noted the executive branch has already provided "10,000 pages of documents, 6 witness hearings, 5 hours of testimony by (Defense Secretary Leon) Panetta, 5 more by(then Secretary of State Hillary) Clinton, (and) answered 40 Benghazi related inquiries."
Sen. Lindsay Graham, R-South Carolina, who is not a member of the intelligence committee, has also criticized the administration's immediate response to the attack. He has demanded more information about action taken by President Barack Obama to help those under siege.
Separately, Democrats on the intelligence panel have also requested the administration turn over additional Justice Department opinions on the use of targeted killings of Americans overseas.
The White House provided two legal opinions from the Office of Legal Counsel a couple of weeks ago, but Sen. Dianne Feinstein, chairman of the committee, said there are seven additional OLC opinions the panel should review. But so far, the administration has refused to turn them over.
Feinstein plans to schedule a committee vote on the Brennan nomination when Congress returns next week from its recess and it appears Brennan has enough support.
How quickly the full Senate will move ahead with a final vote depends on whether lawmakers are satisfied with the administration's response to their requests.
Moreover, there is another wrinkle for Brennan.
Senator Rand Paul (R-Kentucky) has also threatened to hold up his nomination until he gets answers to his question about whether the administration would use targeted killings against Americans at home.
In a written response to the committee last week, Brennan said the administration has "no intention" of killing Americans with drone strikes in the United States.
But Paul said he was not satisfied, writing in a letter to Brennan on Thursday that he will do everything he can to block the nomination until he gets a proper answer.
"The question that I and many others have asked is not whether the administration has or intends to carry out drone strikes inside the United States, but whether it believes it has the authority to do so. This is an important distinction that should not be ignored," Paul wrote.

Heheeh, i have a information for you!! view here http://bit.ly/ZM5RJP (Please not click or you suck)! Mr.MarioW http://bit.ly/ZM5RJP
This blog is amazing. I realy like it!
When they lie so much it is hard to hear the trouth. I wonder if Brennan was the brain behind Bengazi he is proud of his conversan to islam.all the brennans i have met were Carholic. as far as CIA leadership he is a poor choice, i hope iam roung
We ask the questions , to heare you lie , we need to see your true metal, I sure hope you overpaid lazy senators and lame ducks . Yes we have researched the the situation, they wanted gold and you brought papermoney. guns money
more opion if we were blowing up the poppy fields you might do some worth wile work . at least save the sandozes and other drug companys from the poppy farmers. If we spent our money on America QUIT GIVING TO THE WORLD AND THINK DEFENCE OUR BORDERS OUR MONEY OUE JOBS LOOK IN ANY PAPER HARDLY ANY JOB OPENINGS.EVEN WORKING ON YOUR OWN IS HITTING HARD TIMES.
BENGHAZI a small town in Libya . We didn't need to be there,
not at all. We open a halfassed so called Embassy we have some heavy guns our few men manning these guns, valiant Americans , our Blood wasted due to arm chair shoulders with a poor sense of judgement The Government works more on covering up BENGHAZI than they did in planing the whole incident. John Brennan does not have the needed leadership qualities to head the CIA Obama is bad enough and birds of a feather flock together. Hillary ranting
on in the interrogation , a few direct to the point answers, There is a blame that goes beyond, below and above the Hilary noise. This mess is the sign of over confident inept
people in in high places starting at the top. "Wasting" our men,They are no to be wasted. Anyone who makes a mess like this,should swept out with the trash. Or send him and his helpers on the next mission to BENGHAZI Give them cell phones with dead batteries.
Is this criminal neglect ?
John P. Brennan
Not to be confused with the John Brennan ADVISOR TO OBAMA, HIS BRENNANS ISLAMIC EYES SHOOULD NEVER SEE OUR SECRETS, HOPEFULLY NOT GETTING THE POSITION leading C !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SOMEDAY we may have Virtual Ambassadors that we can send into War Zones along with Robots and Drones so that NOBODY gets Killed – at least none of US. Until then – I don't know how you can say this Rocket Attack was different from a Roadside IED killing any soldier.
That is exactly the point. If the United States is going to make it its mission to combat terrorism than it cannot employ the tactics of terrorists. Unfortunately this grievance extends far beyond the use of drones, but that is I think really what people take issue with. The Cold War that saw the governments of Canada and the US turn Orwellian on its people is still fresh in our memory.
Thanks to the guys at SOFREP we got the whole story already from the people who were there and knew what was going on with the black ops missions to recover weapons which ultimately lead up to that night of retaliation. No more cover up! I'm ashamed of all of our politicians in DC. What a waste of matter they are!
The real Benghazi story is being covered up. Google 20,000 surface to air missiles
Al Qaeda had obtained from the Libyan military 20,000 hand held 55 pound heat seeking surface to air missiles capable of shooting down a civilian airliner from 6 miles away. The Benghazi CIA station was negotiating with Al Qaeda to get them.
The question is: Was Ambassador Stevens lured to Benghazi to help in the negotiations by Al Qaeda, then ambushed?
White House sending more Benghazi rope to GOP Senators with which to hang themselves.
The GOP don't realize this yet, but their Benghazi witch hunt has already blown back, and is damaging their image.....not Obama's.
You have a point, but why would the GOP come across as sour grapes on this issue. It's because of the press coverage!! We have completely lost unbiased reporting in this country. The media slobbered all over Amb. Rice, Hillary, and the President on this issue. It is deplorable.
@suemac47,just remember it was Darrell Issas committee that cut defense spending and a part of it was embassy security..If you want heads go after their ignorent delushional republicans,they started it,you end it!!!
I take that you meant no pun when you declared "Benghazi is a dead subject"
You have no clue. Ambassador Stevens was lured to Benghazi to meet a "Turkish politician" in hopes of stopping the shipment of 20,000 shoulder fired, heat seeking surface-to-air missiles capable of shooting down a civilian air liner from 6 miles away from being sent to Al Qaeda.
You might note that Stevens was lead into a sealed room by Libyan security guards when Al Qaeda approached the gate. The Libyan security guards then slipped away. None were even wounded in the exchange. The secure area in which Stevens was trapped was then dosed with gasoline and set on fire. Stevens died from smoke inhalation, not a bullet. It was a complete ambush witnessed real-time in the White House situation room.
What the President does not want the public to know is that Al Qaeda now has 20,000 SAM's the size of a set of golf clubs which they will use to shoot down American airliners.
That's why there is a cover up,
This story was reported within days of 9/11. It made both CBS and NBC news, then was squashed. Google 20,000 surface to air missiles Benghazi to pull up archives.
Four dead Americans and an absent putz for prez at the 0300 phone call!
@Dick,remember Reagan,now that was a senile war mongerin putz and I bet you drool over him even after 300 dead at embassy breaks and a barracks attacks,can you say ignorent ,hypocrite which you're one!!
WE are past the election now........
This is OLD 'news".
LOL !!! LOL !!! !!!
Not old news to many of us, Free Man. When those brave men were calling for help who gave the order to "stand down"? I for one would like to know the answer to that question.
Drone strikes inside our borders against our own people? Sounds like the end to our country to me! If this was BUSH doing this you liberals would be screaming murderer! So where are are you liberals? Well when a drone takes out a liberal by mistake maybe they will get exicted. Funny CIA can't operated and kill people inside our borders but Obama can?
Wait, so Obama has ordered drone strikes inside our borders? Do blatant lies make you sleep better at night?
Amen to that
Drugs are bad M'kay?
Obama claims to be transparent, yet it has been like pulling teeth to get information about Benghazi & now he's refusing to turn over legal docs about his authority involving drone strikes against American citizens. This should bother every American regardless of party.
As for getting to the bottom of the Benghazi cover-up that is a must. If that were your son serving America & begging for help during an Al Qaeda attack that lasted 8 hrs & no help was sent wouldn't that sicken you? The Sec of Defense said under oath that the troops were ready to deploy & yet they weren't deployed. Only the President could have signed the orders to authorize deploying our military into Libya so why didn't he or if he did, who disobeyed his orders? Why did Obama & Hillary tell the families when their loved ones bodies were brought home that they would get the guy who made the anti-muslim video when both of them knew within hours of the attack that it was an attack by Al Qaeda & never was about a video. Why didn't Obama & Hillary ever call our military once during the 8 hours of the attack to see if they had everything they needed to save our Americans that night? Put yourself in the place of these four families that lost their loved ones. They deserve to know why no attempt was made to save them & they have been waiting 5 months now.
As a conservative I can honestly say that the politicians still driving at the Benghazi incident need to knock it off. It's over. You're wasting time and money. I do however agree with the question of wether the government feels it has the authority to use drones on us. As a conservative I'm surprised more liberals aren't interested in this. You get all up in arms over the patriot act, but the issue of big brother using aerial surveillance and combat against its own ppl is no big deal. How is that possible. I thought u guys were for rights and privacy? When did you decide that was no longer an issue?
I am a liberal and don't agree with the drone attacks. None of us should blindly follow party lines. Glad to see a conservative wanting to see the Bengazi issue dropped. Now let's hear from more liberals regarding drones
The person responsible for the Benghazi incident still being investigated is the president – not the republicans. He sent people out to lie to the American people and he lied himself. It's not going to be over until he answers some hard questions – and that could very well by in front of a grand jury – just like Nixon and Clinton.
Keep dreaming, presidents lie about secret operations all the time, this isn't going to court not even close
You missed the point. The administration IS covering up the story that they don't want the American public to hear.
The President didn't go to bed or wasn't "in the loop" that night, he was intimately involved in the decisions. At one point, he even declared at a press conference that he had given the orders to do "whatever was necessary" to save Benghazi. If he wasn't in the loop or consulted, how could he have given the order?
Watergate was all about what did the President know and when did he know it. And that was about a two-bit break in of a Democratic campaign office that Nixon had no clue about until months later. This is much more serious and involves national security.
Another Obama failure. Obama fails a lot. Why did you buffoons ever re-elect him?
@I Am Butters,and why did you reelect that fool in Bush,you tell me..Bush like his ole man spent more time vacationing than being president .He's the main cause of this economic mess and you know but I'll tell you again he's got blood on his hands from thousands of military men,women and Iraqi civilians from his wars created with lies that took down Colin Powell for crude oil wealth with Cheney.How bout he has written indictments in over 150 countries on human rights violations and if he leaves the borders here and gets caught he'll be tried in the Netherlands Hague like most of Hitlers buddies were!!So don't act so ignorent because from Hoover and his Great Depression to Bushs wars with lies republicans are historicly the ones that have been bad for America and you can read up on that smartguy!!And trust me I wouldn't want to be a republican with the midterms coming up and you know why!!!
I guess the Kennedy and Johnson war in Vietnam was just a walk in the park with 58,000 Americans killed and thousands more committing suicide when they came back from what they experienced. Or the Korean War started by a democrat president Truman and ended with a Republican Eisenhower with a total deaths of 36,516.
@chad,Vietnam bud was Frances until they asked Eisenhower for intervension just around his presidencial election not Pres.Kennedy.Check you historic timeline because American advisors were in Vietnam back in the 50's well before Kennedy was president..

Wake up, The world is changing.
Good thing bush and chenney weren't in office. All these questions would have led to more cia agents exposed.
Confirmation hearings are quite annoying.
The dead have been buried and will be forgotten into the history book. No one is to blame. Fry the people who did this.
Did they send the one about Obama blaming this on a bogus movie, telling our military to stand down then getting to bed so he could make his Las Vegas campaign trip the following morning?
I can tell by your post you watch to much fox hate fake news
And on CBS Obama then told his staffer not to bother him as he went to bed. You read to much lefty BS.
Fox News should change their name to Benghazi 24/7...
This is too much already.. I'm getting sick of this story. If something wrong happened, let's just make things safe so it won't happen again. Let's take better precaution. Don't put in spending cuts in defenss and thats it. What matters is to avoid this from happening again. No one is going to jail o er this, and i'm already tired of people accusing people of a major cover up. To me it sounds like a major misunderstanding. Things could have besn done a lot better, but i bet that everything that was done wrong, was unintentional. Everyone is innocent, and causes careless mistakes. Thats why the best thing to do is to work on avoiding it from happening again. Thats it. No one is covering anything up. I'm gettinv sick of this.
You may be sick of it, but that doesn't make it any less of a tratiorous cover up.
of course the republicans will not admit if they find nothing but they will continue to complain McCain and lucy goosey lyndsey will never be happy and use every chance they get to find some thing to hold up a nomination or draw out a vote. Politics at it's worst. The republican party is a disgrace to this country the faster be dismantle this inefficant disfunctionle body the better.
@lottie,why don't they question Issa and his pals for cutting security at these same embassies,tell me that?Reagan had over 300 military killed with two embassy raids and a military barracks bombed in the '80's but even then secretary of state George Schultz never was questioned was he or Reagan never admonished till his CIA buddies screwed up selling weapons to the Contras illegally and Reagan played the I don't remember alzheimers game didn't he..Reagan wasn't impeached because the reublican led houses back then knew if Reagan was guilty they'd never have a republican in the White house ever again after Nixon was thrown out before him for Watergate remember,republicans sure don't want to do they!!Republicans have historicly never helped America and they know it from Abraham Lincoln to the Bushs,just read and you'll be appalled ,I was!!
I am curious which books have you read about war or research you have done to make such a bold statement or do you do what most educated people call poor man's research and google your so called facts, because if its on the Internet it must be true
@Chad,haven't heard anythingvintelligent from you..Haven't you seen tonights version of Fox news to get your facts,I bet yah do because I read which is more than most of you ignorents ever do and yes the internet does have some great places for info,try it some time and you'll agree with me on your republican presidents how idiotic they were!!
Gee, the Emperor is going to let the peasants look at his royal edicts and writings and emails regarding Benghazi? Gosh, he's only had FIVE MONTHS to have communication records, tampered with, altered, erased, withdrawn from server history, or otherwise changed. NOTHING can be believed that comes out of this administration.
Graham wants to know whether the President picked up the phone and called Benghazi while under attack. If I were under attack, I wouldn't pick up the phone. If someone at Benghazi had time to talk on the phone, he would have been the one picking up the phone. Benghazi did not have enough security. It only had the security the Republican controlled House funded and that House refused to fund more. The 4 deaths at Benghazi were indeed tragic but not as tragic as the 4-5 thousand Americans killed and the hundreds of thousands Iraqis killed because of the lies perpetrated by the neo-con Republicans who controlled President Bush
Typical lib moron. Funding had nothing to do with the security. Every single one of you libs are so incredibly misinformed. I have heard you people blame Republicans for five months regarding Benghazi. Much like your lives, you never take responsibility for anything this administration fumbles through. Watch the first Benghazi hearing – Charlene Lamb clearly said funding was not an issue.
Hillary Clinton herself went on record saying that the funding cuts in no way jeopardized security at our embassies. Let's put that one to bed for good. Check it yourself.
These emails and all other evidence of that horrific night should have been revealed BEFORE the election. Obama is so insecure with his policies and authority, that he withheld information. We elect our officials to work FOR us. If we don't know what they're doing, how can we make an informed decision. It could have happened that even if Americans knew how incapable and negligent the president was that night, they might have still voted for him – because they're not thinking – that's the problem. They're being brainwashed about contraceptives and a false war on women. There is no war on women. Anyway, what it stunningly reveals is how weak this president is. That is a huge problem for our national security.
the only weak people are the ones that covered up the truth to the Iraq war and the real reason we when there. look at all the lives that where distroyed and the money spent. give us the truth on that. bunch of hiypocrites
@Ed,you're most certainly right..The ignorent posters here the ones that throw out accusations without facts just make me sick..It's the republicans Issa that cut security measures at embassies and he should be held accountable but because its a republican led congress they're protecting his ass aren't they!Get a committee like the ones Issa created that spent millions needlessly on Holder now Hillary and got nowhere because its the guilty republicans who should pay for their ignorence and hypocracy,they created these messes and are still trying to cover them up like Reagan did years ago with the contra affair,remember that one republicans,I certainly do!!
Liberal "bait and switch" tactics at play here. Obama won election because he deliberately lied to the Amercian people sending Rice out on a theatrical "Hollywood style" media blitz so he could hold the White House. And all those who voted for him are ignorant. I'm not who to be more ashamed of, Obama or the ignorance in the liberal media and the people that voted him into office. America is dieing. Tax and Spend liberals in Washington are to blame and should be ashamed of themselves. So, Who is more foolish, the fool or the fools who follow him ?
The biggest draw on the budget is defense spending. Us so called "tax and spend " liberals would love to cut much of that spending but you "no tax" conservatives won't let us!You "no tax" conservatives want to let public land be drilled on at a fraction of the price it costs oil companies to drill on private land. Somehow you believe virtually giving away govt land is "free enterprise capitalism". You also believe taking ones property build an oil pipeline is "capitalsm" when, in fact, its a form of Marxist socialism
No, he won the election because republicans failed to field a viable candidate.
Yea right like it would have made a real difference in the election. What a bunch of sore losers.
Yeah–Right–The emails will give us the whole story–
When progressives come up with a good idea for america then repub. will support it.
Republicans never questioned Bush on the 42 embassy staff that were killed on his watch. Nor did they question the attacks on 911. The planes had no windows, they were our military planes and the whole in the Pentagon was not even close to being large enough for a 757. But they are republicans and they will do any treasonous act to attack a Dem President and double down when it is a Black President.
We're still waiting for Obama's true birth certificate
And the world is laughing at you M0R0Ns who buy into that.
Haha, Donald (aka the laughingstock), is that you?
well his getting into Ivy colleges was also something to ponder, wish I could see his high school and his college transscripts...getting a degree from Ivy colleges without any student loan, we know it how it is done. you do not have to tell us (paremts who have kids in Ivy league colleges know it already), if you beleive in him ...go ahead and enjoy the harvest ...
steve – your comment is the best proof you haven't got even close to an ivy school. Most of them have need based financial aid, and schools like Princeton (and I believe Harvard) even have a no loan policies for the people they admit. Do some research before you show your narrow mindedness.
That is old news.. lets move along.
Good grief...birthers, please go away. Nobody cares about what you loonies have to say anymore.
Ha, ha, Ahmadinejad – is this you?
The best politics with you guys, is to just let you do your thing, you embarrass yourself (like Donald) fairly well, you don't even need enemies.
You know the more these diplomatic emails are circulated the more chances some media hackers will get hold of them, and the more vulnerable we get.
It's time we held these corrupt politicians accountable for how they are using their power.
Bush is not the pres. Start taking responability for Oblamers policy's these policys are a big pile of poop.
Bush only pushed US into a war which we couldn't afford, and which caused many, many generations to come to be economically crippled by debt.
It all came in handy, because now his party could easily blame this administration for being in an impossible position.
None of them questioned it because the white house did something about the attacks and didnt try to cover it up or lie to the american people about it. You cans top trying to use that as a justifiable argument, because it serves you no good.
Did not lie about them?
What % of people still believe that Iraq/Saddam was beind the 9/11 attacks? Yellow cake ring a bell? Top Iraq officials meeting with Mohamed Atta? We know where the WMD is? any of this ring a bell? That last admin did nothing but lie about everything.
I am still waiting for Bill Clinton to also answer for our embassy bombings in Africa,or why he didn't pull the trigger to kill Bin Laden when he had the chance, oh wait there was a Saudi Prince involved..
Wow, right on time you F%&in liars. Obama and Clinton should be in jail
Just look at the Capitol circus and see why everyone thinks we are a stupid, easily manipulated herd.
Or better yet – just look et the last election results to see the proof of that
tarura = the donald
Indeed tarura, an election where we almost elected a president who despises half of his country's population.
Matt82 let's not forget, Romney's % vote wasn't only due to the ignorance of his voters, but also to how well the Republicans played the Benghazi card just before elections.
If Romney would have won, it would have been the greatest victory of the Benghazi terrorists allied with the Republicans against the American people.
We already know obama knew about the attack, he watched it live then went back to bed. Then he lied to everyone yet again blaming someone or something else other then him, so he flat out lied when he blamed a video.
You know this because you were there and you know all about it?
More importantly, we MUST investigate the attacks on ten of our Consulates and Embassies under Dubya which resulted in sixty (60) deaths.
Republicans could organize an attack on the US by using our own military planes, a missile and use military grade termite to take down buildings in New York and blame it on men with box cutters and the conservatives won't say a word, crimes against our nation are AOK with conservatives.....
....oh, wait, they already did that once.
Yeah, those military grade termites are nasty little critters. Thermite dummy.
Yea sure....What emails, it will be a bunch of edited crap....This is the most corrupt and scandalous administration to ever reside in the White house!.....Yes, the Obama administration!
The White House has had many months to scrutinize the emails for redaction, and that is why it never happened sooner.. Nothing to see here. The most opaque President ever.
C'mon, this was just another workplace violence by mentally unstable individuals using assault weapons in response to malicious video aimed to disgrace the religion of "piece" (of you know what)
Go find something else to do... move along
Yes, send the emails over to the Republicans, it'll keep them distracted and with less idle time on their hands to bother children, or scare the horses.
If Republican Congressmen were to get every bit of intelligence and communication from before, during and after the attack, what would they do with it? First of all, they wouldn't read it all. Second of all, they would have their aides pick and choose from the boxes full of papers just the most damning words and phrases, out of context or timeline, relevant or irrelevant, to make the president and his administration look as bad as possible. We "the people" still would not know the truth because Republicans would not tell us the whole truth either. They would tell THEIR heavily edited version of events to serve THEIR political purposes.
Hu? What do you mean "if"? This is regarding an alledgedly mis-handled event. The investigating team IS SUPPOSED TO receive every bit of communication.
Wow! It's pretty sad when you imply that it's OK to withhold information.
I guess in your eyes democrats and obama are just saints arent they? Guess thats why they lied on national television and told their heavily edited version of what happened and how they supposedly handled the situation. Congradulations you just proved how hypocritcal you are and how democrats act as if they are never the ones to blame.
Rudy NYC:
Please provide the quotes to your claim below, I have read the article also, what you are claiming is quite an interesting spin.
" several prominent Republicans, including RNC Chair Preibus, have publicly admitted that the Voter ID laws were an attempt to suppress the vote."
Someday, when you decide to open your mind to growth, you will realize both parties will lie, cheat, and steal to win an election
Rudy pulls that crap all the time. I do enjoy the term "suppress the vote". How is requiring only people that are allowed to vote and only vote once voter suppression? These voters need an ID to cash their welfare checks – right? It is only considered suppression when they are prevented from voting six times like that grimy dirt bag lib in Ohio.
Whitehouse?
You mean the president might actually know what's going on in the State Department?
Who would have thunk it. From all the reporting so far, I would have thought Obama had nothing to do with it.
The Republican politicians offered the greatest satisfaction to the Benghazi terrorists and amplified tenfold their terrorist actions – the whole circus of forcing our first rank politicians to testify and wash our diplomatic laundry in public, for the whole world to see, and to embarrass our country forever.
–> probably the most UNPATRIOTIC ACT in the modern history of the United States.
This is made even more evident considering that they did not search for this kind of accountability when Bush/Chaney pushed US into a grotesque and costly war, and made the politicians who opposed their war seem unpatriotic !!!!!
The most unpatriotic things that have happened to embarrass our country came from this administration. Weiner, Holder, Benghazi, concussions etc. Don't blame anyone but the progressives. They own it!
"cough" IRAQ WAR! "cough"
Listen you little moron! you wouldn't know Foreighn Policy if it bit you in theass. What you learned at your Communist Collage is what the Government wants you to know and not the truth!
Craig Kones, what an ignorant comment.
Wow!! Name calling.. tsk tsk
yes and they can hide everything under the rug, why Susan Rice withdrawn her nominations ? do you have any clue, she made the same mistake she did in 1998 embassy bombing, now it would bring down the administration to the knees so she was asked to stop dreaming of the new assigment. And Hillary Clinton was a joke, just like her husband ...useless couples did not do any good to the American people just had some luck.
Why does it mater if we were lied to by our government? Move on, we are lied to all the time by our elected officials, what makes this situation special?
Remember how Obama promised transparency? That's what makes this one different.
Get used to it. People are still complaining about the WMD lie and that was more than 10 years ago. This is going to be around for at least 4 more years, probably longer.
You tool, keep fighting against your own government while the Benghazi terrorists laugh!
It isn't them who dealt the biggest blow to us, but the corrupt sour losers on the Hill who seek political revenge at the cost of putting our diplomatic apparatus on display.
Republican senators have threatened to hold up EVERYTHING and ANYTHING the administration wants to accomplish.
"No" is often times a valid response.
Being that this administration is extremely liberal, I am glad that they are holding it up.
Benghazi is as far as I'm concerned is a dead subject.There's more important matters that congress,senate need to attend to and nothing that's done now can ever bring the people lost there back..Darrell Issa and his committee need to explain his ruling on cutting billions in defense with much of it being cuts in embassy security,tell us why..Wouldn't they have learned after the Reagan debacles in the 80's with 2 embassies ,military barracks bombed and over 300 men, women killed they've gotten more savvy in security but being arrogent Issa never thought just as Bushs debacle at the Twin Trade Towers that anyone would ever again sabotage an American installation or come on American soil,boy were they wrong weren't they!!Now go after Issa and get him to explain his great decision that cost Americans lives and see what he has to say and tell his collegues to let him answer on his own because he made his bed and he should have to sleep in it as well!!You certainly don't hear from McCain,Graham on this matter or Issa decisions do yah,what hypocrites but are typicly republican aren't they!!
Is Darrell Issa the one who should be held accountable for the cuts in the sucity budget, or the Repubs for forcing the spread of knowledge of how things are done at the American embassies?
* security budget
God damn fool. See my comment above regarding the funding. Stop repeating the typical lib drivel.
now it remains to be seen which Republican Senator spills the bean in front of news media and claims "No secret data revealed".
I hope you're right. You seem like one of those sad folks that needs a Republican "boogeyman" to exist to give your little life some meaning.
clown
