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.

That’s all Dems know how to do, bribe people and do voter fraud
Bingo, mentioned program w/Libyan and Rice on the same... contra reports.
Exactly, knowing our lack of organization and unity they(commie dems) figured they could roll us. Remains to be seen if they will or not so far.
LOL, I was thinking the same thing!
Trey Gowdy and Patrick McHenry are the two heroes of this hearing. ON POINT. Excellent job, patriots!
“Jackie Speier dem/rat calif now repeating axel talking points from Sept. we have go to do a better job next time, this presupposes Benghazi is over and its all history or as jay carney said “happened a long time ago.” These a-holls are so slick. “
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Talking point is right!
Construct a new narrative.
Benghazi is the past. Why waste time on petty political partisanship when we could be constructively dialoging in bipartisanship on future needs to protect our embassies so that Benghazi never happens again.
blah, blah, blah.
No knowledge given this was to be the official line of the cause being the video. Thanks Mr. McHenry.
Who kept the FBI from Benghazi?
Hey onyx, ever wondered how the CNN person happened to come upon Stevens journal?
If the MSM remains monolithic, they may be able to shut it down...the door has been opened, the curtain has been pulled back...we will have to see if it snowballs..
OCTOBER 5, 2012 : (-——See ALQAEDA REBRANDING ITSELF AS ANSAR AL SHARIA?) North Africa: As Al-Qaeda Falls, Ansar Al-Sharia Rises By Mawassi Lahcen Oct 5, 2012 – [...] However, we should also note that the name itself is not new, given that Abu Hamza al-Masri, who is currently detained in Britain and is wanted in Yemen and America in connection with terrorist crimes, has already given the name to his group which he founded in London after he returned from Afghanistan in 1994. Abu Hamza was aspiring to make Ansar al-Sharia a global organisation with branches in many countries.

DEMS: “Our story ‘evolved’ as time went on.
When I was a kid, my mother called that LYING.
McHenry is great.
I don’t want to seem partial, but please notice, the Southerner’s are GOOD!
I took it as a threat.....
Rat says “no smoking gun”
LOL!
Pocan “no smoking gun here, not even luke-warm slingshot. Let’s just move on and not let it happen again”
Ughhhh Dems have zero shame.
Not even a warm slingshot...
It has been reported that Rice's lies so angered him, that he drug his feet in allowing FBI to get on site to investigate
STRONG OPINIONS??????
HOW ABOUT TRUTH???? THAT IS NOT A OPINION!!!
Hmm.. he understands the ‘confusion’.
No smoking gun.
Sheesh. Back to funding.
Pocan is a good communist... green, but useful.
