Speaking with Larry O’Connor and guest host Christine O’Donnell, Joe diGenova tells WMAL that GOP Congressman Mike Rogers (MI-8) is trying to kill the Benghazi Investigation.

It is so bad, that even John Boehner has taken Mike Rogers to task for his lack of action. Audio of the interview will be provided later.

House Intel Committee dismisses some Benghazi myths
By LAUREN FRENCH 11/21/14 7:24 PM EST

The House Intelligence Committee dismissed on Friday a number of the most persistent myths about the 2012 terrorist attacks at a diplomatic outpost in Benghazi.
The committee, chaired by Republican Chairman Mike Rogers of Michigan, found the U.S. government didn’t fail to send assistance to the Americans under siege by Islamic militants and there was no “stand down order” from the State Department. The committee also dismissed the notion that there was an “intelligence failure” the allowed the attacks to occur.

But the committee did rule that a number of individuals involved with Al Qaeda were involved with the attacks and Abu Sufian bin Qumu, a Libyan national, “probably played some role” in the attacks. Qumu was a prisoner at Guantanamo Bay before he was transferred to Libya in 2001.

Mike Rogers R-MI is retiring and will start a talk radio show on January 5. He's going to show, how the 300 people before him have failed, are wrong. He's going to show that a "moderate" talk show host can one, have a successful program and two, take on and defeat that radical Rush Limbaugh. And three, create himself as politically influential and take away the GOP from those krazy, kracked, rightwing kooks in Rush's audience and the Tea Party etc.

I predict, that we will never hear from Mike Rogers again. Better late than never as this report on the "Benghazi" investigation shows.
