Hearing details:
WASHINGTON House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa today announced three witnesses who will appear at a full committee hearing, Benghazi: Exposing Failure and Recognizing Courage, on Wednesday, May 8, 2013, at 11:30 AM in 2154 Rayburn House Office Building.
I applaud these individuals for answering our call to testify in front of the Committee. They have critical information about what occurred before, during, and after the Benghazi terrorist attacks that differs on key points from what Administration officials including those on the Accountability Review Board have portrayed, said Issa. Our committee has been contacted by numerous other individuals who have direct knowledge of the Benghazi terrorist attack, but are not yet prepared to testify. In many cases their principal reticence of appearing in public is their concern of retaliation at the hands of their respective employers. While we may yet add additional witnesses, this panel will certainly answer some questions and leave us with many new ones.
Witnesses: Mr. Mark Thompson
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Counterterrorism
US Department of State
Mr. Gregory Hicks
Foreign Service Officer and former Deputy Chief of Mission/Chargé dAffairs in Libya
US Department of State
Mr. Eric Nordstrom
Diplomatic Security Officer and former Regional Security Officer in Libya
US Department of State
In October 2012, the Oversight Committee held the first hearing on the Benghazi attacks, which exposed denials of security requests and forced the Administration to acknowledge that the attacks were not sparked by a protest of a YouTube video, contrary to claims made by Obama Administration officials.

Thank You ... am reconnected.
The Republicans in this hearing are making the Democrats look like 5 year olds. “Oh, no! Pinnochios! The Washington Post!”
Clay is up next. Another man who is as thick as a brick.
Wow...just wow!!!
Third or fourth bombshell of the day!!
Cheryl Mills is very close to Sec Clinton - a call is not considered to be good news when you get one from her. She was upset and WANTED a report about the meeting and what went on during his discussions.
More BOMBSHELLS!
Remember old Cheryl Mills?
The person close (next to Clinton)!
Mills demanded a report as to what he knew and told others!
The querstioners alternate R-D-R-D
Holy Cow!! Did Jordan just set Hillary’s Ol’ Crusty on fire or what???
Clay up now... Back to the spin machine.
Apparently Hillary was very upset about this... Probably Hillary was already thinking of damage control at this point in the time line...
Three out of four democrat questioners are black. Racism at its best.
Here comes more misdirection with talking points from the protect Barry squad.
Thank you people of Ohio!
>Hicks told NOT to talk to a Congressman!!!
Has that ever happened....Never!<
BUMP!

That’s CIA V Secretary of State.
The Mysterious Unnamed Annex Chief means it’s CIA.
I take it not from anywhere around Cleveland?
Not thinking too highly of that place just now...
May change opinion later.
Another rambling fool— Representative Clay
Allows me to focus on Jordan...
