Thanks for the post.

Closer to reality than most of the MSM coverage.

It’s very possible the clown will get away with his crime. Half the country has its head up their a$$es, and the media are pushing it in farther.

But what about the supposed coverup of the purported secret purpose of the consulate to coordinate shipment of arms to Syrian rebels? Nobody on the committee even asked a question about it while I watched most of the hearing. Not saying I have any knowledge of that “secret purpose” other than the rumors I’ve read.

Thanks,....Got another video:

Rubio On Benghazi Talking Points: Someone In Admin. Should Have Said "This Is Wrong"

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) discusses the House hearing on the Benghazi attack on "FOX & Friends."

“They didn’t want to admit that it was a terrorist attack because to admit it was a terrorist attack was to admit that terrorism was still out there and reaching us. And so that’s the reason why they sent the order in my opinion. In some way, shape or form, they sent the order that these talking points should not be allowed to include any reference to terrorism per say or at least it acting as a terrorist attack, but rather they need to be told that this was something that was a result of a YouTube video. So, I think that was the political motivation behind it. What I think is sad is how many people are around the administration, including the former Secretary of State, Secretary Clinton, knew this to be the case and allowed this to move forward anyway. You would have hoped the people would have stood up and said this is wrong, the American people deserve the truth. That didn’t happen.”

Gregory Hicks, Eric Nordstrom, and Mark Thompson are much more than “whistleblowers”, they are very competent and credible witnesses that have testified under oath.... they are also PATRIOTS.

For official purposes the committee is going to stay A MILE away from what the annex was about.

Did the Libyans know about it?

And how many people we had there?

Michelle Malkin is seen by me as beautiful, intelligent, patriotic, fearless and she is most attractive when she is p!ssed.

I watched this last night, but it was fun to watch it again.

I watched the whole thing twice and cannot believe that the dems and media are getting away with saying nothing new was learned and that it is only political.

We knew from the very beginning that it would be this way.

I wonder if the all of the libtards realize, not just some of the librards realize; if Hillary and Obama will do what they did to those 4 men; they will do it to them? Get the trains ready, the libtards are going with the rest of us. They may believe they aren’t with some sweet cushy lives and others freebies; but to people if you can call them that; don’t care. You are just another number.

Anyone who listened to that testimony and wasn’t a rabid Democrat partisan would know the US government lied about what happened for political expediency and those lies were concocted by the White House. The testimony also revealed that the State Department had made no real plans for increased security and ignored warnings from their own staff about the danger in the region. The big unanswered question was what was the Ambassador doing in Benghazi especially when it was known to be a hot bed for terrorists and the compound was not very secure. Was the Ambassador supervising the transfer of Libyan arms to Syrian rebels in a covert operation???

I’d rather be fighting off enemies with Michelle than with Juan any day. Any day. How can Juan look into his own eyes?

I did learning something new today regarding the need to activate a "select committee", in order to issue subpenas.
Knowledge was gain from the Fox interview you referenced.
