BTW, the coordinated news blackout of today’s hearings seems to be on in full force. I haven’t seen a word about it on several major newspaper websites. I guess they think if they pretend it isn’t happening, it isn’t real.

Hopefully they are writing their own epitaphs by their silence. Special Report did a good job and Hannity is too tonight. Greta has been serious about Benghazi too but I expect her to cover the Arias conviction mostly tonight. Jeanine Pirro will probably blast this story like a Babe Ruth home run on Saturday.

Thanks. And they’re still doing the same stupid thing. It was “politicizing” it to mention it before the election, and it’s “politicizing” it to mention it now. When was it OK to mention it? GRRRR.

Tiger, take a moment to listen to this: eye witness in Cairo when it all happened

He connects some dots in ways that now make a lot of sense.

The caller is a little goofy, but he has credibility with the show host, as explained in the clip.

"The flight distance from Vicenza, Italy to Benghazi is: 1008.36 miles / 1622.8 km

At 550 mph, that's an hour and 50 minutes from wheels up.

And Rota and the furthest reaches of the the Med region are not much further. No tankers? REALLY? Djibouti isn't all that far either.

Well crud! I hope you got another stream without missing much.

I missed almost the whole thing. I managed to catch some of it.

Then tonight, I tried listening to a recap on the radio, but all I could pick up was some station full of liars, so I just listened to music. They were still pushing the story that everyone (including the administration) thought it was a protest sparked by a video, for a long time after the “incident.”

They played a short clip of Hick testifying, and then they claimed he went on to say that everyone believed it was a protest caused by a video, and the administration was sincerely distraught that they couldn’t help, because some general said the military couldn’t possibly send help for at least 20 hours.

I’d rather have no info than to let somebody fill my head with lies. So as of right now, I know little more than I did yesterday.

It was part of the State Department's delusion that we can demonstrate to the host government that we support them. Even Hicks thought it was good idea.

It would have been, if it weren't for the fact that our highest leadership (Obama/Jarrett and crew) are using the military and it's equipment as mercenary pawns to ensure the spread of the Muslim Brotherhood.

Why do you think so many SEALS have died? Why did this happen? Obama had ARMED DRONES overhead. They 'claim' they weren't armed, but if they weren't, how did those drones take out 'terrorists' in Libya just prior to the attack on Benghazi ?

Yes, that's good. I had that bookmarked. Here is a news interview in Cairo of activists there who knew nothing of the "video." There were two or three reasons people in Cairo came to the embassy to protest but the "video" was not one of them.

Pardon the typo. Autocorrect added an apostrophe to Greg Hicks’ name. When I removed it, I guess it grabbed the “s” too.

"State Dept. spokesperson says hearings are not about keeping people safe. What a weasel"

I didn't watch the full hearing (hope I set the DVR correctly. <8^)

What was he talking about? I read something, pretty sure it was Free Republic, my go-to site that the primary job is not people so much as it was for detroying any intelligence on hard copies or on computers.

That once every thing that terrorists might be able to use, the focus turns to personnel.

You know, it was so long ago - 8 months ago AND WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE./S

"I’d say Elijah is pretty rank..."

Is he the fellow who quoted himself? I think he said something at a funeral a year ago; then today he quoted himself from what he said at the funeral.

I'm pretty sure it was Elijah.....Cummings (I think).

"Cummings: I am glad the whistleblowers are here and I will do everything in my power to protect the whistleblowers!"

Does he have any specific power to protect the whistleblowers?

Speaking of good men, how do we ID, nominate and get them as our candidates? OUR picks?

Your question is the 64 trillion dollar one. Most sane people do not want to go to D.C. regrettably and imho their reasons are valid. A sane person easily recognizes insanity and avoids insanity at every opportunity. The insane rush toward and embrace insanity and D.C. offers many of the insane an opportunity to become wealthy while practicing their death wish and projecting their death wishes upon our nation once elected. Therefore the insane in D.C. at any given time outnumber the sane. It is a dilemma I have no actual answer to.
