Democratic Rep. Decides She Doesn’t Want to Answer Questions About Benghazi
The Blaze ^ | Dec. 9, 2013 | Becket Adams

Rep. Ann Kuster (D-N.H.) at a town hall meeting refused to answers questions about last year’s deadly terror attack on the U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya.

The New Hampshire representative appeared to try to dodge the question by saying Benghazi isn’t in the Middle East, and therefore not pertinent to the discussion at hand.

“I’m certainly not here to talk about it, we’re here to talk about the Middle East,” Kuster said in response to an attendee’s written question.

Libya is located in north Africa. Differing definitions place it either inside or outside the Middle East.

Regardless, the crowd clearly was not satisfied with Kuster’s answer.

Her comment was prompted by a written letter asking for her thoughts on a bill sponsored by Rep. Frank Wolf (R-Va.) calling for Congress to form a select committee to investigate the Benghazi attacks.

“I don’t have … it’s a Senate thing — I don’t think we have anything about that in the House,” she said, perhaps not realizing Wolf’s bill is indeed a House bill.

She eventually became silent and stood there as the crowd became more unsatisfied with her answers. An event staffer had to come to her rescue and redirect the meeting.

To which I would say, hey dumba**, you're our representative and this is a town hall meeting and you should answer any questions put to you (within reason). Otherwise what's the point?

Once NH fully goes Dumbocrat they will have the highest overall tax rate in the country. Their property taxes are already astronomical. When they get a Dim legislature they will enact a state incom tax and sales tax.

It’s only a matter of time.

Her job is “Representative”, not princess. She works for the people. If you don’t like the responsibilities, quit asking for the job.
