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.

It seems like Issa has pushed aside the Face-time Fools on the GOP side and is giving all the time over to the buldogs who know the issues and know how to dig and ask questions.
Hillary blood in the water...
Chaffetz is attacking ARB...
Maloney the Baloney is up...
Good. Now Fox can shut up about it.
Chaffets is choked up about how these guys got left behind.
Now, over to camel lips, complaining that they didn’t get to intimidate Mr. Thompson.
Chaffetz is breaking my heart.
Hey don-o, wanna tell him he can’t cry?!
And now that brilliant mind Maloney, jeez lady, go have another drink you slime.
Maloney is full of BALONEY
We can only hope.
OMG, how much do I love Jason Chaffetz at this moment.
:) and bows
Oh trust me, I have that in spades!
Issa chastising her.
Two pictures come to mind .... Hicks & his folks in Benghazi facing AQ (he just said at times he was “frightened”) and the threat of death with superiors telling them ‘no’ on critical security they needed ...... and the schmuck sitting in a tub sipping champagne in Vegas, wasting taxpayer money. Different departments, sure ... but this just demonstrates the screwed up priorities of the government.
She sobbed.
Back to important NEWS!
Carolyn Baloney whining... Issa countering effectively...
Maloney taking the Dems stance when cornered, whine about unfairness.....I know which kid she was on the playground.
I know the look on the other guys face was in disgust!
Cummings is P(SSED that Thompson did not want to be attacked by these hacks in private.
Cummings shut up.
Good!!
