The State Department has no intention of providing Congress more witnesses to the Sept. 11, 2012 attack on the U.S. mission in Benghazi, despite Sen. Lindsey Graham’s threat to hold up all nominations until he gets satisfaction on the issue.

....

But the State Department won’t make more Benghazi witnesses available in response to Graham’s tactic, she said.

“Our response is that we need to have these officials in place,” said Psaki. “That’s the only way to strengthen our interests overseas and to be able to represent our diplomatic agenda. It’s also is important for our security interests, which is something that many of these members of congress seem very concerned about, for good reason.”

Do you think graham will make good on his threat to hold up nominees until they do produce these witnesses?

I sure hope so. Although he should have been doing it all along. At least he would have one redeeming quality.

What happened today besides the Sebelius inquisition?

The State Department sent official word to the Senate that they would not produce any Benghazi witnesses and that they were needed where they were and it was a total protect the bitch and bastard behind that murderous treason. Graham has yet to speak out on his threat to hold up all nominees until they do produce these witnesses... his threat that was made before state told him to shove it.
