Hearing details:
WASHINGTON – House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa today announced three witnesses who will appear at a full committee hearing, “Benghazi: Exposing Failure and Recognizing Courage,” on Wednesday, May 8, 2013, at 11:30 AM in 2154 Rayburn House Office Building.
“I applaud these individuals for answering our call to testify in front of the Committee. They have critical information about what occurred before, during, and after the Benghazi terrorist attacks that differs on key points from what Administration officials – including those on the Accountability Review Board – have portrayed,” said Issa. “Our committee has been contacted by numerous other individuals who have direct knowledge of the Benghazi terrorist attack, but are not yet prepared to testify. In many cases their principal reticence of appearing in public is their concern of retaliation at the hands of their respective employers. While we may yet add additional witnesses, this panel will certainly answer some questions and leave us with many new ones.”
Witnesses: Mr. Mark Thompson
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Counterterrorism
US Department of State
Mr. Gregory Hicks
Foreign Service Officer and former Deputy Chief of Mission/Chargé d’Affairs in Libya
US Department of State
Mr. Eric Nordstrom
Diplomatic Security Officer and former Regional Security Officer in Libya
US Department of State
In October 2012, the Oversight Committee held the first hearing on the Benghazi attacks, which exposed denials of security requests and forced the Administration to acknowledge that the attacks were not sparked by a protest of a YouTube video, contrary to claims made by Obama Administration officials.
*** NOTE: Press seating will be reserved, but limited. Please arrive early (hearing room will open to press at 10:30 AM) to guarantee a seat. An overflow area will be available. ***

I’m an E-Cig man now too. I use https://eliquid-usa.com for my manually refilling of the cartridges that came with the E-Cig kit. I buy the high nicotine, Pall Mall flavor. One 30ml bottle lasts over two weeks (about $10 plus S&H of your choice).
FOX sadly shows true colors again. Shemp’s got nice hair, though.
Conservative constitutionalist Christian patriots are on our own now.
The coughing up is SO embarrassing!
Still trying to milk the "racist" angle for the purpose of the 75% black viewership.
Testimony State Department not pleased with additional security requests after attack in Benghazi.
Just saw your post!
WHY are you missing everything? Did you see my post to you that highlights will be aired on C-SPAN tonight at 9pm?
WHY are you missing everything?
Is it just me, or can I tell before they show the name and political party below whether the person is a Dem or a Rep?
I was listing to some of that.
Woodall R-GA kicks off with repeat of the Code - we will NOT leave you behind. THAT is a major takeaway from today. The CINC utterly failed in upholding the Code
Me too Elyse. The advantages far outweigh cigarettes. No smell, you can actually smoke in a car or house, no filth, cleaner teeth,the cost, healthier. I love if! I actually had a cigarette with a martini in a restaurant the other night!!!!
GOOD!
WARNING: You’re going to be spittin’ mad at Cummings.
There are tools/websites that allow you do screen captures and post them to websites.
An easy one to use is:
http://www.screencast-o-matic.com
The free version has a 5 minute time limit. The "pro" version ($15) allows for sound recording and unlimited time recording of screen capture. But that is how long each Republican had to interview the three people.
You probably would not want to record each Democrat's five minute period...
This website allows you:
(1) set a portion of the screen to record.
(2) post to screencast-o-matic.com website
(3) post to youtube.com
(4) create an MP4 file.
You need the $15 "pro" version to record sound from the computer system board.
Testimony ... request was not important to State Department for additional security in Libya after Benghazi attack.
GOOD!
You could switch to chew! ;)
Fox is turning into MSNBC-lite.
Here's something I found even more scary than that. I had to step away from the TV for about 15 minutes a couple hours ago. I figured Rush Limbaugh would be covering the hearings on his program, so I tuned into his show to stay in the loop until I could get back to the TV.
Rush was telling his listeners that he thought the hearings were in a break or done for the day (this was at least two hours before the 10 minute break in the hearings). But it didn't matter because the hearings weren't being broadcast live by anyone anyway, not even C-SPAN. Then he went right from giving out all of that misinformation to talking about Jason Collins, the gay NBA player...again.
AFAIC all of the available evidence points to Hillary as the original source of the "anti-Mohammed Video" hoax. The embassy in Cairo was the first to use that theme early in the morning on Sept. 11th and Hillary herself used the Cairo embassy Twitter account to push it some more at 10:38 PM Sept. 11th which was 4:38 AM the 12th in Benghazi. No earlier mention of "the video" has ever surfaced to my knowledge.
I did here that democrat.
Saw him on tv at the docs office (my doc is a bitter clinger with Fox in the waiting room and a Do Not Touch sticker on the TV ;) yesterday. I wanted to puke with his drama queen BS on the Kidnap/escape. I do not understand how people watch him.
