Darrell Issa reports that the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, which he chairs, will depose Ambassador Thomas Pickering and Admiral Mike Mullen over Benghazi....

And if they are deposed and NOT sworn in, then what is it called???
What a video. Jeannine Pirro is outstanding. Thanks for the link!
Hopefully they’ll depose General Hamm too. Let’s find out who ordered the stand down.
If they are not sworn in, they are not deposed.
Since you couldn't call it a deposition, it would best be called a theatrical performance.
I agree. It appears Issa is carefully building a body of evidence. I expect more depositions will be gathered as the days go forward.
Obama is not losing any sleep over this because he knows that unless the media starts blasting the truths we already DO know day and night for 2 weeks on end that the public wont pay any attention... and thus congressmen will not have the gonads to do anything about it.
Every single military commander involved could swear under oath that Obama gave the order to stand down when they could have saved lives, and Obama himself could simply claim executive privilege as to why, and the story would be over.
Republicans are at the mercy of the mainstream media.
The mainstream media IS the enemy.
If we cannot figure out how to neutralize them, they WILL neutralize America.
Oh this is going to be good!

Is that what they called this:

HILLARY MISLED CONGRESS—BUT NOT UNDER OATH
You shouldn’t have to put govt employees under oath.
If they lie they should get 10 yrs in jail.
Yes, what Hillary Clinton did twice when she appeared before both the House and Senate Foreign Relations Committees in January can best be described as theatrical performances.

The best way to get a story out that conflicts with the Leftist media narrative is to do it slowly. It keeps the story in the news, but more importantly, it entices the media into excuse making which is proven to be false with subsequent revelations. That way, the Leftist media continues to lose credibility and control of the narrative. The msm can continue to ignore the story, but then they are stuck with tabloid news reporting. Breitbart did this all the time.
Issa for speaker!
////////////
I like him fine where he is now. He seems to be doing the job other Congress-critters refuse to do.
Speaker, however? all.
Check his record: He is arguably not pro-Israel (understatement).
DebbieSchlussel has some troubling info on him on her blog.
Of course, make up your own mind.
Thank you for this post.
What earthly argument is there for his continuing on as Chairman, JCS?
I am hereby formally and officially calling for Gen Dempsey to step down.
Spread the word.
Right, so this is where it’s gets interesting. That muzzie lover pickering conducted that ABR report, without recording the witnesses. And, hasn’t let said witnesses read the classified report! hmmmm, yet I wonder!
Allen West, he gets my vote. The man is a flippin encylopedia when it comes to islam and the history of jihad.
That’s damning in light of all this...
Disgusting. Let that little fairy be the first one to hang.
If nothing else, they need to be sanctioned for refusing to testify further to Congress...
Who the hell do they think they are?
Totally agree...
I happen to know him through the Navy...
As much as I have huge issues with him, I don’t believe he has that kind of weakness...
He is very political and I doubt he would do anything to jeopardize his position of power...it seems to be everything to him.
