Royce trying to pen her down.
Senior state department knew more security was needed.
Why did they withdraw security?
He said that someone else testified that the memos made it to top management. Who did the memos make it to?

She said she was aware of certain incidents, British embassy, etc, but abandoning Benghazi was not reccommended... He asks again. Security was pulled. The question in one of the memos said can we extend the security team and the answer was no we can't. It would be embarrassing to do it...

If I remembered correctly, Ms. Lamb said money was NOT an issue in this matter. I'm wondering if lean security was so to NOT tip-off the locals that the compound/annex was a PRISON. Then they found out and attacked to free their people.. Just speculation on my part.

What is the core issue here? The core issue is that THE 0BAMA REGIME FAILED TO RESCUE, COVERED-UP THEN LIED ABOUT THIS MESS FOR POLITICAL REASONS; SO 0BAMA'S RE-ELECTION BID WOULD BE PROTECTED AT ALL COSTS. IF THAT'S NOT GROUNDS FOR IMPEACHMENT, I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS. Four Americans were ABANDONED TO DIE so as not to put 0bama's re-election at risk? WTF? This IS what happened!!!

These hearings were delayed until TWO DAYS after 0bama's inauguration.. Delayed until 0bama's foot is fully in the White House door for another four. WHAT WERE/ARE THEY AFRAID OF? Why did they must make SURE 0bama was inaugurated before Hillary testifies on Benghazi?

They should ask Hillary 'Why didn't YOU appear on the Sunday News shows?'.. 'Why Susan Rice?'.. Get Susan Rice before the panel and ask her under Oath 'Who told you to say what you said on the Sunday news shows?'

It’s almost as though she knows the questions in advance!

Engell is on - bathroom break!

If she did a thorough investigation, she must certainly know which senior official turned down Stevens request for security.

She's bound to know. But noticed that the Chairman modified his question on follow-up and did not ask again: WHO?

She obfuscates with heroic language on the part of those she left hanging with no hope, while answering nothing on WHO rejected requests more security!

Further, the low tankers were NOT fired. They are on LEAVE, probably paid!

Good questions. We should have the government oversight committee instead of the foreign relations committee. No doubt, there was a deal struck to steer the questioning away from that committee headed by Issa and with guys like Chaffetz, Gowdy, and Adams (was she defeated in 2012?).

At the very least, Chaffetz should have been allowed to question her since he went there right after the attack. The Reps compromised again and let the Dems off the hook.

Why are the Republicans allowing the Democrats to focus on funding and future changes? THAT IS NOT WHAT THIS HEARING IS ABOUT.. WTF!!! WHAT A JOKE.

This hearing is about Hillary's actions/inactions.. Lies, cover-ups, failure to rescue, etc..

Dog and pony show and the fix is in. I give up.

It seems that our political system is helpless in cases such as this. Nothing will come out of it, which means this is merely a dog and pony show, posturing by your elected representatives intended, as always, to prompt you to reach for your checkbook.

That simple onyx. Just that simple and certainly she must have asked HER employees who denied assistance. She knows full well where the stand down order came from and so does everyone else.

Spot on. It was Charlotte Lamb. Money is a rabbit trail to burn up the clock. Yawn.

She knows the questions she will be asked by the Dems! Her answer about funding by the Dem is very specific facts and figures that may not be typically answered off the top of her head!

She’s stuck on a loop. She just keeps talking about how busy she is, how many miles she’s flown...blah blah blah. Answer the question Hillary, WHO DENIED THE REQUEST FOR SECURITY ON THE 7TH FLOOR. and please let us know WHO ORDERED THE STAND DOWN?

Elliott Engell is a complete buffoon. What the hell is wrong with the people of New York that they consistently elect these morons to represent them.

The Democrats have made this into a resource question. They did the same in the Senate. And Hillary and the State Department are happen to join in. This is an opportunity for State to get more money.

Boehner and McConnell run away from conflict with dems at the first opportunity.

These GOP Reps are asking way to many questions in their statements. They need to be more direct.
