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.

Now they are asking the who gave the order to stand down...first time this came up today?
Who knows the answer, as Hicks does not??
"No man left behind" is more than an Army Ranger credo it's the character of America.
He used the word ethos instead of credo. Probably a better choice of words.
Hicks does not know who gave stand down order. Need to ask Lt Col Gibson.
There it is!
Trey Gowdy ROCKS as does Hero Hicks!
Rice and her damn talking points prevented Libya’s cooperation and that’s why Stevens’ diary got seized by cnn.
Rice called Libya’s president a liar in her talking points.
This one from Florida
“Who issued the order to stand down” to Hicks.
Hicks replies...”The right person to ask that question to is Gibson.”
BUMP
I think we’re not supposed to hate our personal enemies, people who are mean to us personally, etc. Hate their actions, motives, etc - but not the soul.
But these here enemies are enemies of our entire country...and all that is good and honest and honorable and just.
BUMP.
Are they going to ask HIM?
Wishing I could have seen this from the beginning....
Everybody and their mama must be on cspan3. It’s uselss. I am so ticked!
” Rice and her damn talking points prevented Libya’s cooperation and that’s why Stevens’ diary got seized by cnn.
Rice called Libya’s president a liar in her talking points.”
BINGO!
I get that. However, I am a sinner, so who the heck am I to judge others.
Although, those whom I KNOW don’t believe in Christ being the Son of God and refuse to do so, I simply dismiss.
Don’t know offhand the scripture in which He states to do so....I just remember it and do so.
TYVM.
I’ll take it.
The question is ....will they ask him?
...someone drop a garbage bag?....WHERE ALL THE RATS GO?
God is always on the side of truth...not lies..he opposes those.
