Democratic Lawmakers Call Benghazi Security Officers Liars

Scandal: The California Democrat who suggested that his party boycott the Benghazi Select Committee as a waste of time now accuses those who fought on the CIA annex roof of lying "to promote a new book."

The last we heard from Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., a member of the House Intelligence Committee, was in May. That's when he told Chris Wallace on "Fox News Sunday" he thought the planned select committee to investigate the 2012 Benghazi attack was a "colossal waste of time."

Calling the yet-to-be-approved committee a "tremendous red herring," Schiff said: "I don't think it makes sense, really, for Democrats to participate."

Well, the Democrats participated in the committee that conducted its first hearing on Wednesday, and Schiff, along with Rep. Adam Smith, D-Wash., finds himself one of the Democrats picked by House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi to sit on it.

In fact, it was Schiff who proposed that the first hearing focus on the Benghazi Accountability Review Board's post-attack review and recommendations, an idea that committee head Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., accepted.

But Schiff apparently is still not happy about the hearing, which pointed out the State Department's pre-Benghazi neglect of security, ignoring the security recommendations after the 1998 bombings of our embassies in Kenya and Tanzania.

The State Department also brushed off the warnings of Ambassador Chris Stevens himself, who was killed by terrorists in the Sept. 11, 2012, attack on our diplomatic mission there.

Yeah sure Adam, as if you democrats are paragons of virtuous truth telling? You guys lie even when there’s no reason to. It’s your chosen vocation and way of life.

Who shall America believe?

Two EXEMPT treasonous Congressfolk, Democrats, who
made themselves, their staff, and all Moslems EXEMPT from
ObamaCARE .... while covering up the
WITHOLDING of MEDICAL CARE FROM VETs,
and who now obstruct every investigation into the
Clinton-Obama-DNC directed WITHOLDING of HELP
as patriots were being murdered and raped
on the TV monitors at the White House?

or those Americans who were actually there?

Agreed, and I don’t believe there is a single Dem on that select committee with an ounce of integrity.

Hannity is asking Schiff to come on his TV show and call the Benghazi security officers liars to their face.

Good for Hannity, I’ll wager the coward Schiff won’t accept.

Here is Schiff’s bio from wikipedia. Yup, another MA POS who immigrated to California.

“He was born in Framingham, Massachusetts to a traditional Jewish family, and moved to Oakland during high school.[2] He received a political science degree from Stanford University and a J.D. degree from Harvard Law School.”

Worse than that.

IMHO
