Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, in an extensive interview with Fox News, alleged that the injured survivors of the Benghazi terror attack have been "told to be quiet" and feel they can't come forward to tell their stories -- as he urged the House to subpoena the administration for details if necessary.

They should hire a lawyer, and sue the government

Nice thought, but even if the case were taken it would be YEARS before anything came of it, if ever. We need a better tack. The old saying "ballots or bullets" is I fear about to come to bullets. God help us.

Graham needs to go to a Federal court armed with a writ of habeas corpus.

A special prosecutor is needed and subpenas issued to Hillary and Barry.

Those are the 2 Assclowns I would have no questions for. All of the survivors I would have plenty of questions for.

Graham: I’ve had contact with some of the survivors. Their story is chilling. They feel afraid to tell it. It’s important they come forward to tell their story.

The best evidence of what happened in Benghazi is not a bunch of politicians in Washington trying to cover their political ass. It is the people who lived through the debacle. And I’m going to do everything I can to get them before the Congress and the American people in an appropriate fashion so we can learn firsthand what happened in Benghazi.

(snip)

Bret: Are these survivors back on the job?

Graham: Some are back, working for the government. Some are still injured. The bottom line is that they feel they cannot come forward. They have been told to be quiet.

(snip)

Graham: They [the adm] are hiding from the American people and the Congress the primary source of the truth in Benghazi, the people who lived through it.”

(snip)

Graham: “The person I blame is the President of the United States.”

(snip)

Graham: “If we do not have these survivors come forward in an appropriate way, I will continue to make life difficult in the Senate, and I am begging my House colleagues if they [Obama adm] will not voluntary release the names of these survivors to the Congress for appropriate interviews to get to the bottom of what happened in Benghazi that you subpoena them.

House Republicans Jason Chaffetz, Frank Wolf have done a great job. But to our leadership in the House, You’re going to have to up your game on Benghazi.

(snip)

As to Secretary Clinton, You cannot tell the American people you had a clear-eyed view of the threats in Benghazi, given what I know. And what I know comes from the people who were there. And it is time for the people who were there to tell the American people what happened.

Maybe Grahamnesty can bring the issue up while they’re chit-chatting over their next dinner.

If “what difference does it make”, then why go to all the trouble of making sure they don’t let the cat out of the bag?

Obviously.

But there's a new fix in and he may well be re-elected without one actual SC conservative's vote. Columbia has their ways.

A special prosecutor is needed and subpenas issued to Hillary and Barry.....and the Benghazi survivors.

The blood of the heroes who died saving the lives of these survivors cry out for such justice.

House of Representatives .... DO YOUR JOB!

Wonder if Graham being a lawyer can do anything himself.

He has direct testimony from them.

Why not testify regarding what they told him. It’s first hand, not heresy.

The US Congress has helped al Qaeda enter the USA
by keeping the borders open, and has armed them
with MANPADs rockets from Libya with Obama.

How they all must hate Americans,
as THEY are protected and not even under ObamaCARE,
as they fill their bank accounts, while America is
murdered by their own hands and their abdication.

As long as identities are protected unless the survivors willingly go public, I am all for Congressional investigations behind closed doors. I would really like unclosed door testimony, but sometimes that is unwise.

"Of course the MSM reporters - who are as dumb as posts - don't see that at all."

Or....perhaps they aren't as dumb as they would have us think. Perhaps they're just ok with all of the Obama lies and are in on it. Remember how they (leftist media) covered for the Clintons?
