Pat Smith, the mother of Foreign Service Officer Sean Smith who died in the September 11, 2012, attack on an American consulate in Benghazi, appeared before a congressional committee on Thursday investigating the governments response to that attack.
She insisted that she was repeatedly lied to by President Barack Obama, Vice President Joe Biden, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, National Security Advisor Susan Rice, and former Defense Secretary Leon Panetta who all immediately blamed the attack on the spontaneous demonstrations arising in response to a YouTube video.
I was told a few things and they were all lies, Smith said. Obama, and Hillary, and Panetta, and Susan [Rice] all came up to me at the casket ceremony every one of them came up to me, gave me a big hug and I asked them what happened.

And every one of them says, it was the video, and we all know that it wasnt the video, she continued. Even at that time, they knew it wasnt the video.
So, they all lied to me, Smith continued.
I dont count, she added. People of America dont count. The only thing that counts is their own selves and their own jobs.

And of course, all but two of the Democrats on the committee WALKED OUT as Mrs. Smith was talking.
They refused to hear testimony from the parents of fallen Navy Seal Tyrone Woods and the parents of Sean Smith, who were both killed by terrorists in Benghazi during an attack that the Obama administration originally blamed on a video tape.
Here is the list of the cowardly Democrats who walked out on the parents of two American heroes who gave their lives for this country. You might want to call their offices and give them a piece of your mind as to their disgusting and disrespectful behavior:
Carolyn Maloney
Danny Davis
Eleanor Holmes Norton
Gerald E. Connolly
Jim Cooper
John Tierney
Mark Pocan
Matt Cartwright
Michelle Lujan Grisham
Peter Welch
Stephen Lynch
Steven Horsford
Tammy Duckworth
Tony Cardenas
William Lacy Clay
Of course they lied to you. They are sorry worthless scum-bags. They all gave you a big hug?
I would have... (self edit here).
Bunch of worthless a-holes make me want to puke.
God,please bless and heal this brave woman.
She issues the clarion call to action to all Americans who believe in justice.
Anyone wanting on or off this ping list, please advise me or Republicanprofessor.
Just following the advice - "If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen."
Or this from Charlie Daniels - "Had 'em all steppin' and fetchin'..like their hair was on fire and their asses were catchin'."
This is an absolute outrage!! What a disgrace! These people make me want to throw up!! I am calling everyone of these disgusting a-holes and the media!! I urge everyone to do the same!
They are beholden to what they perceive to be 'power' - and all the temporal baubles it brings. The 'power', though, which they worship is simply the 'prince of the power of the air'...
Not to be flippant, but yes. They know what happened. Pat Smith's testimony does not tell them anything they don't already know except remind them of their leaders' failures. They are not going to change their minds on anything at this point or else they risk banishment from the establishment. None of them can be an outsider. It's the same as death.
I don't know why anyone is surprised by this sort of behavior anymore. If something jeopardizes their standing in the DC establishment or doesn't further their political agendas, they WILL walk away from it. That's who they are and what they do. The only way to stop it is if enough people vote them OUT.
Unfortunately, most of these clowns are from what we would call safe districts... which is to say, their constituents WILL VOTE FOR THEM no matter what the scandal.
Living in NY, I know for a fact that Carolyn Maloney has her seat for as long as she wants.
Of course they”LIED”to you!It’s the ONLY thing they know how to do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yesterday, we learned that the media serves as more than body guards for the Obama administration, the media serves as advisors to Obama.
First we learned that the Obama administration lied about Obama making the decision to seek Congressional approval for his Syrian attack while on a walk with his Chief of Staff. The truth is that Obama made the decision during a secret meeting with editorialists from the NYT. Members of the NYT editorial staff evidently advised Obama that he could push some of the blame off on Republicans in Congress if he got them to approve his military strike. “Give it to Mikely, he’ll eat it.” “He eats anything”
Second, we learned in the WSJ that it was articles in the WA PO that persuaded Lois Lerner and her friends at the IRS to go after the Tea Party. The WA PO was the entity that was blowing the dog whistle on the Tea Party.
And kudos to Mr. Woods for mentioning General Ham and his comment that A RESCUE WAS POSSIBLE, and that the committee should subpoena him!!!
Here’s a complete list of the Dems who walked out on Ms. Smith and how to contact them:

They lied? Sure, they did. It’s what democrats do. Even their voters know it and accept it. That’s why I refuse to be friends with anyone that I know votes for a democrat. And I never will. Anyone who watches this kind of crap and continues to vote for them is one sorry s.o.b. That means I don’t go to family events.
Another thing that pisses me off about this is why didn’t Issa call them on it as they were walking out?
they are all worthless...and in 2014 those up for reelection should be voted out of office, REGARDLESS if they are Republican, democrat or independent. VOTE THEM OUT...
I will not be voting party line..I will be voting for NEW MEMBERS..this should not be a permanent job for these idiots.
“Another thing that pisses me off about this is why didnt Issa call them on it as they were walking out?”
That was my question as well! Didn’t any of the Repubs comment about this during, or after the fact? They should have pounded them for this disgusting crap!! What a disgraceful slap in the face to the parents of these American heroes who gave their lives for their Country!!!!
