Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, is frustrated by the Obama administration’s “stonewalling” on the Benghazi investigation – and he wants answers about the 2012 terrorist attack.
Speaking to Fox News’ Neil Cavuto yesterday, Cruz said: “We have four dead Americans. We have the first dead U.S. Ambassador killed in service since 1979. In the 19 months that have followed, we don’t have a single dead terrorist or a single terrorist apprehended, and what we have seen from the president and Senate Democrats has been stonewalling.”
Here are the four questions Cruz wants the Obama administration to answer:
Last year, Cruz introduced a Senate resolution calling for a joint select committee to investigate the Benghazi attacks. The House of Representatives is moving forward with its own select committee, which will be led by Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C.
>>> Q&A: Does a Benghazi Select Committee Matter?
“The truth shouldn’t be partisan,” Cruz said. “Finding out what happened, finding out how we could have prevented it, and acting to actually apprehend these guys, should not be partisan.”

Any reporter would ask, “Who,what,when,where and how?” That’s what is required.
I keep liberals saying “It’s old news, we should just get over it and move on”. Yeah, they wish. Some of us happen to think that an attack which left 4 Americans dead deserves some investigation, however.
“Who,what,when,where and how?”
There’s the fifth set of questions that needs to be asked:
“Who was Obama with, what was he doing, where was he and when, and why was he doing it?”, on the night of the attacks.
And a sixth question:
Why was Ambassador Stevens in Benghazi, and how did the terrorists know he was there?
If this question is answered, everything will unravel from there. I honestly believe that's what the Obama administration is really trying to conceal.
‘The truth should not be partisan’ is a good response to the onslaught to follow. It is growing, the lib whine, as the years go by, and this will be no less loud than ‘Bush stole the Election’.
Trey Gowdy will likely be a good leader and role model for responses, as well.
The Bush ‘let’s be polite’ is ineffective, however, probably no less effective than anything else we’re going to be able to do.
Libs are 4 year olds in adult bodies.
those 4 are a good start, but there are at least another dozen or so questions that need to find answers.
Sometimes the truth is too much to take.
The president of our once-great country refused to lift a finger to send help while our ambassador and other Americans were being assaulted.
Even worse than that, but I can’t find the words.
Fifth Question: Did Hillary make the talking points about the Video?
Have the survivors of the attack ever testified?
Aren’t there people that were there forced to sign non disclosure papers?
Where are they?
If Obama truly didn’t know what actually happened until days after, why hasn’t anyone been fired for incompetence?
If he did know and went to a fundraiser anyway he’s a cold hearted bast___ with no love nor respect for those who died.
What was the CIA doing there? What types of weapons were at the CIA site? Where any weapons in Benghazi being sent to the Syrian Rebels?
And Why did the Brits have the good sense to abandon the neighborhood after multiple attacks but we stayed withOUT fortifying/hardening the consulate/rented building?
Agree...just one more addition:
Who, What, When, Where, WHY and how!
“I keep liberals saying “It’s old news, we should just get over it and move on”. Yeah, they wish. Some of us happen to think that an attack which left 4 Americans dead deserves some investigation, however.”
Pearl Harbor is also “old news” but they don’t have any trouble talking about that, do they? Slavery is old news, yet that’s still a topic. Civil rights movement..Dude, that was so 50 years ago.....
>>“Who was Obama with, what was he doing, where was he and when, and why was he doing it?”, on the night of the attacks.<<
.
And a good liberal question would be: “And how did he feeeeeeel?”
How about: Did Hillary have the video made as Plan B if whatever was supposed to happen didn’t go as planned?
yes, and it wasnt just 4 American lives at risk. There were over 40 Americans who were in danger.
Mr. President, what were you doing that was more important than defending American lives?
On the anniversary of 9/11 no less! If you can’t be prepared to secure us on that date, how on earth can we trust you to secure us the rest of the year?
