Issa: 'Slippery' State Dept. Not Cooperating on Benghazi Documents
Newsmax ^ | Thursday, 15 May 2014 | Cathy Burke

House Oversight Committee head Darrell Issa slammed the State Department Thursday for using “slippery tactics” to weasel out of providing documents related to the 2012 Benghazi attack – and issued a new subpoena to haul Secretary of State John Kerry before the panel.

The California Republican said he'd kept his part of a bargain – lifting an initial May 21 date for Kerry to go before the committee – but the State Department has "back tracked," The Hill reports.

“With this State Department’s slippery tactics, it’s no wonder our friends in the world are losing faith in us and our adversaries doubt our credibility,” Issa said in a blistering statement.

A second subpoena for Kerry to appear May 29 was issued, and Issa warned "further accommodation will not be possible," The Hill reports.

OMG this is a surprise! Criminals aren’t going to tell the police voluntarily that they have been conducting illegal activity, .... and neither is the State Department. At least the Constitution still holds true today LOL /SARC

Issa should just cease and desist now that there is a select committee on Benghazi.

Issa.

The Administration sent important emails to JUDICIAL WATCH, in a clear MIDDLE FINGER to you.

DO SOMETHING OR GET OUT OF THE WAY.

This is what lesser evil ‘winning’ looks like in the real world. I really hope people are starting to grasp that concept. People screamed and hollered that ‘winning’ was everything ‘no matter what’. Well, this is what you get when you vote for unprincipled idiots. Your victory id phyric at best.

People continuing to promote ‘lesser evil’ candidates are no better than a democrat because their ‘wins’ are covering for democrats, excusing democrats and refusing to put the hammer to democrats..

Couldn’t individual states bring criminal charges against the government operatives on behalf of it’s citizens that were targeted?

It’s like he’s stuttering back there still working for the chamber of commerce party/GOPe and Gowdy the an is cruising in with his staff making him look like the do nothing he is /they are

Trey’s staff, as rightfully infatuated as they might be, have to stop smirking, though. I’m sure he’s made that clear

Issa says “weasel out of providing documents related to the 2012 Benghazi attack”

Gee, World Net Daily don’t seem to be having that problem
Mr. Issa. Maybe you should go the FOIA rout rather than
sitting on your hands flapping your arms and clucking like
a chicken.
This guy has been more useful to the Democrats
than anyone else. All he’s done is expose weaknesses in
their story for them. And all they’ve done is tell him
to go spoon a goose.

The select committee won't have its shoes on by the time this subpoena calls for Kerry to appear. I'd say keep the heat on these scumbags as much as possible. Nothing to gain by delay, there has already been enough stalling.

I just wish he'd be sending his subpoenae to Clinton at the same time. She's retired now, she has plenty of time to go visit her old friends on the Hill.
