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.

Yep. Apparently.
That poor woman, breaks my heart.
What the heck is up with that hag Maloney, she looks like she rolled out of a gutter. Filthy pig
“Three good men going beyond the call of duty”..Massie
Rep Massie asking other witnesses to come forward.
Ms. Maloney, all you had to do was check the State Dept. website for the Benghazi embassy. The Warning Page congresscritter.
I am upset that C-Span will rebroadcast the ENTIRE hearing for Americans not able to watch this afternoon. C-SPAN is doing a great disservice by just rebroadcasting highlights.

Flight time from Rome to Tripoli is 1 hour and a half. We’re supposed to believe that the time from our base in Italy to Benghazi is somehow more than 7 hours.
Maloney is exactly as you described.
Worships Hillary.
Weird, I was just thinking that she should wear her hair like that more often. Makes her look much less like a troll.
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.
Just wow. For once I'm glad I didn't tune into Rush's show today. He's usually better than that...
I have no idea what Rush was talking about. The hearings have been on C-SPAN3 non-stop since it started around 11:45am ET. There was no indication there would be any "break" until about 3:30pm ET or so, when they actually took a 10 minute break. Rush's show was long over by the time they took a break from the hearing...
Yes he is. One of the few politicians in the state that did not instill a sense of shame in my bosom when I called the Evergreen State home.
Yeah. They’re shameful.
Love this question and have thought of it often. Why not put the team in the air and pull back if necessary.
Good God, these old CBC types sound exactly alike.
Filibuster with blannnnnnnnd groannnnnnnning voices.
SON OF A B!TCH!! 2 Seals went over there, under strict orders NOT to do so, but they did....and were murdered for it.
And these SOBS just keep lying! The Lord instructs me to love thy enemies. Fine. But what if these enemies are PURELY EVIL?
I CANNOT love evil. I hate them and hate them all. Lord forgive me for doing so, but I simply CANNOT help but HATE evil!
Plane told to Stand Down. Wonder Why? Testimony will this be repeated at another embassy? Truth is I do not know (this is my opinion). Witness says no.
