Former CIA head Mike Morrell is scheduled to testify at 10AM in a PUBLIC hearing before the House Intelligence Committee. C-span doesn't have it scheduled live and FOXnews.com isn't showing that they'll carry it.

CSPAN

Basis of protest point was “press reports” and intel from station chief.

[txhurl]

Is this guy close to Brennan?

[Friendofgeorge]

They should wire the guy with a lie detector, covering for Hillary the sleaze bag

[Red_Devil 232]

Yes! He is very eager to get his view out in front of the committee.

[don-o]

Going back to Nov 15 hearing - Question was asked who took Al Qaeda out of talking points.

[txhurl]

It was ‘editorial’... not substantive. So Susan Rice hit all the shows with this ‘editorial’, what difference does it make?

[GoCards]

I didn’t realize he was with Bush on 9/11 and immediately told him Bin Laden was behind. For me, really? you would immediately go to Bin Laden on 9/11 but a movie on the other 9/11. COVER UP

Keep in mind - the talking points were originally requested by this House committee - specifically Ruppersburg (sp?)

They were copied to State Dept and there’s when the coverup began.

[Toespi]

Quite obvious that his goal is to protect the White House or he wouldn’t continually say they had nothing to do with the editing.

[don-o]

He has adopted the annoying habit of answering a question, beginning with “So....” I hate that.

[ken5050]

Rogers is an experience FBI interrogator. His style is low-key..trying to get Morrell to box himself in..commit under oath to a lie..we shall see

Morell is struggling at House hearing on Benghazi - nervous and shaking - admits to changing #Benghazi talking points

[ken5050]

It’s an effective technique..gives him a few extra seconds to collect his thoughts...he’s NOT a dummy..just a liar.

[ken5050]

Here is the the AHA moment.it was a protest AND a terrorist attack they’re not mutually exclusive...he’s spinning,a nd badly

[smokingfrog]

I’m trying to get some work done and just listening in the background, so not following real close.

[don-o]

I missed something - What sentence was added?

[maggief]

What addition was a “bureaucratic mistake”?

[smokingfrog]

no politics

just a bureaucratic mistake

Mmm, Mmm, Mmm

[txhurl]

So far State dept. hasn’t been brought up.
