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 d’Affairs 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.

“GOP cut funding”.... yet... embassy personnel in most or all the large world cities ... amazingly.. are fully staffed.
There is so much BS being spewed out of the mouths of these democrats. It’s all talking points and it was the Republicans fault,etc. I could puke!
Love how Issa smacks down the Dems when their time is up..
Clay can’t even remember what DAMN HEARINGS HE ATTENDED!
He is just showing his stupidity...Issa pointing it out...lol.
Resources not an issue.
Bam!!!
Truer words are rarely spoken.
ha haaaaa Issa shreds the lying Clay
money was NOT an issue
Clay you lying scum
Excellent, recalling Lamb’s testimony, HAH!
LOL.
Poor George W. Bush hasn’t been mentioned today.
The enemies of America are sitting on committees for hearings, and it appears some of them are tasked to protect the now running Cloward-Piven strtagey to crash the economy by preventing cuts anywhere in spending. I hate democrips ... again, trying to divert fromt he issues of the hearing! Disgusting bastard rats
Clay’s not representin’ very well. Slow and stupid. Quite a contrast when Nordstrom or Hicks speaks.
Issa and Nordstrom lowering the boom on dumbass...
Clay (and Tierney) are trying to make the case that these hearings are now old news, that the ARB report covered everything, that we should move on to implement the ARB recommendations. Basically, they're going with Hilary's "At this point, what difference does it make?".
ME neither.
Will let him know though.
Yup.....they’re doing the bidding.
LOL.
Geez, the stupid damn demonic-rats.
Ha ha, Clay can’t remember that someone testified that money was NOT an issue.
Resources NOT an issue.Clay is an ignorant fool
Which would have given the party RUNNING THE ADMINISTRATION plenty of time to fix, right, Mr. Clay?
My IQ is plummeting listening to this dolt.
