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.

Yep, something disturbing just happened........they just showed a live shot of the hearing room, and I swear there was a monkey sitting in the center of the bench.
*Sigh*
Yep, you’re right.
What interest could there possibly be in murdered diplomats when there is a sensational sex-filled story to be aired. /sarc
WOWOWOWOWOW!!!!! Coincidence? My local news station has traveled to Cleveland and they are hearing that one of the kidnapped women will be giving a statement ANY TIME NOW! Um, BENGHAZI ANYONE?! Just crazy.
That is not a joke. I saw it too.

I hope you have that saved someplace.
You may want to consider posting it all as a separate thread. This can sand on its own.
Amazing timing!
