If you did not get to listen to the Benghazi hearings today, I suggest you take the time to do so. I encourage you to listen to all of it but if you listen to nothing else, please begin at the 34:00 and listen to the answer Ty Wood’s father gives to Democrat Speir’s from California when she asks them to speak about their Sons. Mr Woods talks about a story Ty’s Seal friends had shared with him at the funeral: “No More Lies, No More Smoke & Mirrors!”
He also speaks to how important it is that the voters know the truth about Benghazi so that they can protect America’s freedom! We must have public testimony by credible witnesses who have first hand knowledge, the voters need to hear the truth.
Pat Smith talks about her wonderful Son and how he was abandoned in Benghazi!
Only two Democrats stayed to talk with the families: Speirs and Cummings.
Michigan Congressman Kerry Bentivolio’s speaks to the Warrior’s ethos to never leave one of our own behind. The Congressman served in Vietnam and Iraqi Freedom. He is a SOLDIER!
Most of the comments to the family were made by Republicans and they all said that the Americans back home all ask about Benghazi and they care about what happened in Benghazi and they want the truth!
Please note: the 50:00 mark:
Darryl Issa wrapped up the hearing reminding the families that the opinion that ultimately matters the most is that of the Speaker of the House, John Boehner, who has repeatedly authorized this investigation to go forward and as long as he is Speaker, it will go forward. He told the families to get to the truth it takes a long time, and for that he apologized but he assured them they will get to the truth.
He also advised that two subpoenas were issued today whose names they were finally given, and these are people who were on the ground.
It would behoove all Americans to watch the entire hearing.
PS:
To those who keep asking for a “select committee” be formed to investigate Benghazi, please realize that a “select committee” would be required to be DONE and OVER with it’s investigation in just 90 days! Obama and ALL involved would just LOVE a “select committee” to be formed! They would just stall furnishing documents, subpoena requests would be stalled.....with the outcome being no more answers at the end of the 90 days! And once the 90 days has passed, NO MORE investigating!
The present House Committee with Congressman Issa can take ALL THE TIME they might need, and they WILL get the answers!!
