Gregory Hicks, former deputy chief of mission in Benghazi, told Congress today that a State Department official began criticizing his job performance, and he was ultimately demoted, after he asked why U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice attributed the Benghazi attack to an anti-Islamic Youtube video.
In hindsight, I think it began after I asked the question about Ambassador Rices statement on the TV shows, Hicks said of the criticism during a House Oversight and Government Reform Committee hearing on the attack today.
So it should be imperative that one or more GOP (aka RINOs) see to it that he is put back on the track he occupied prior to the retribution of the regime.

Standing up for truth against evil is always the right thing to do and it always has consequences. Stand up for truth anyway.
Other high ranking military have had their commands taken away and made to take early retirements by the bullies on the Hill.
He did the right thing —he gets to live with himself.
Lessay a man of conscience takes 20 pieces of silver and conforms to a body of lies, is it WORTH IT?
No —you beat yourself up later again and again. You have stuff, and you hate yourself.
You’ve lost.
This guy is GREAT, and we all need to learn from his STELLAR EXAMPLE.
A courageous guy who works at STATE —man, that is SO WEIRD.
Principles matter.
State Department officials just love of course to go out and jeopardize their careers with sworn testimony that the State Department and the Commander in Chief does not like. For gosh sake Gregory Hicks work their for 22 years and should have learned by now to keep his mouth shut, and especially during the most transparent presidential administration since before George Washington!
It’s the communists way of doing thing. Next is fake suicide.
No, the next thing is “Fake Murder/Suicide” so you don’t have family members left saying that he would never kill himself....
Plus it destroys the messenger very effectively...
Someone on Fox & Friends this morning, probably Steve Doocy, said that Hicks voted for Hillary in 2008 in the primary and then voted for Obama in the general election in 2008 and 2012 (even after Benghazi).
Call Boehner and insist he continue the hearings AND appoint a special commission.

Time to clean house in the State Department. Fire anyone with a spouse or an adult child working at the State Department. That’s were the bribery begins.
Well, to some of us they matter. It seems that many people care more about the latest celebrity gossip than they do about the truth.
Its the communists way of doing thing. Next is fake suicide.
