Former Obama Spokesman Mocks Benghazi Hearing as Conspiracy Theorist 'Amateur Hour'
Twitter ^ | Wednesday, May 8, 2013 | Kristinn Taylor

Former Obama National Security Council spokesman Tommy Vietor has let loose on Twitter this morning, mocking the Benghazi hearing today as "amateur hour."

Vietor also mocked the hearings as conspiracy theories on par with Area 51 and the moon landings conspiracy theories:

Heard that Rep. Cummings asked Rep. Issa to include Thomas Pickering, cochair of ARB report in today's hearing, but Issa refused. #Benghazi

Why on earth would Issa refuse to let the cochair of an independent review board on #Benghazi testify at his hearing on the subject?

Could it be that today's #Benghazi hearing has nothing to do with fact-finding but is just the latest shamefully politicized Issa attack

@GrahamBlog @joenbc can you explain why Issa refused to allow Tom Pickering to be a witness today? He cochaired #Benghazi review

Reporters are very excited that Rep Chaffetz will be at today's #Benghazi hearing. Maybe he'll disclose more CIA facilities! Amateur hour.

Heard @jaketapper is chasing down rumor that House Oversight Cmte ran out of chairs. Why else would Issa refuse to include Pickering today?

Hey @Milbank what do you think Rep. Chaffetz will disclose today? Moon landing photos? Map of Area 51? http://goo.gl/W7NuW

Oh really ? just like the Watergate scandal ?

Ok Republicans in Congress .. listen up... if any of you Congress people are here readings this , this is what you respond to those Democrats when they say " just get over this Benghazi thing " .....

Respond back with " you mean to let go just like how the Democrats and the main stream media didn't let go of the Watergate scandal ? "

Calling Dan Bongino !
Calling Dan Bongino !

Courtesy call !

Dan Bongino ? tell those in the main stream media and the liberals , respond with " let go of this Bengiazhi thing like how the main steam media and the Demgorats didn't let go of the Watergate scandal and ran Richard Nixon out of Washington ? " ....
Sean Hanity ?
Rush ?
Mark Levin ? listen up.....

Let go of what happened in Benghazi just like how the Democrats and the MSM didn't let go of the Watergate scandal ? and no one died in the Watergate scandal.


No ? what ? what you say ? inflation index ?
Corruption index ?
Jay the whitehouse guy " that was a long time ago "

So we have to adjust for the " Corruption index " because Watergate was back in the 1970s, and adjust for corruption for Benghazi ?

Looks like Jay the whitehouse guy is adjusting for the “ corruption index “ since Begazhi was “ a long time ago “ and adjust for the “ Corruption index since the Watergate scandal was “ a long time ago “.

Elijah Cummings heart is as black as his skin .. sad .. he used to walk and stand for freedom,, now he works to strip even those most vulnerable in service to our country of any dignity, even in their deaths.. due to his fearless leaders.

Getting to the truth is now a thing to be mocked? I guess if the truth exonerated the Obama administration, they would be all for it. But they are not...

What purpose would Pickering serve? We already know from his report that he went out of his way to protect the State Department and the administration.

protect Obama,
protect oabma
protect Obama
all about politics
all about politics\
protect Obama.

They’re like drones who have no idea how to use their small brains, instead it’s always about politics to them, everything is about politics and never truth, the country or the military.

I honestly despise these people, there was a cover up, there is obviously lies and Americans dead and yet these swamp donkeys care more about protecting their messiah and their investment from their votes

written he same before,

Obama can go out, rob a store, rape a white woman while shouting cracker mother F bitc# and it can be all caught on camera and still the media will not cover it and still the white guilt white elitist will vote for him while the black population will come out more to vote for him.

That is how pathetic this media is over their non white guy who is a communist at heart

Let’s get his comments after the hearing, and have him confirm it was all about a vast right wing conspiracy.

Many questions Hillary can’t answer.. “WHY was Stevens allowed to STAY in Benghazi after Hillary drew down then refused him security?” Almost looks like a hit job by Hillary via Al Qaeda.


She’ll blame the republicans.

Any time a Democrat starts saying things like this they should be immediately rebutted with this .....

36 Democrat Senators called on the AG to order a special Prosecutor over something that really didn’t matter .... Their rationale... “a special counsel will ensure the public’s confidence in the investigation and prosecution and help to restore its faith in our government.”

We have four dead Americans and the suspicion of a White House coverup.... Obama and Hillary colluded over how to handle Benghazi in order to limit our exposure during an election. Lying about our national security is much more important than who told whom Ms. Plame was with the CIA...

Interesting to look at how much airtime was dedicated to the Valarie Plame hearings and the Patrick Fitzgerald investigation and how much is being dedicated to Benghazi...

Obviously Democrats must think it is a far worse to have the media expose a CIA agents name than it is to have four Americans killed by terrorists and have the President and Secretary of State lie about it....

Hey I hope you are correct, but when I say we are doomed, I am speaking only in a worldly sense, meaning USA will never again elect a Christian to the White House

Speaking as a Christian, the only ones doomed are the ones that reject Christ

I look forward now to His/Jesus Return
