In a very emotional interview with Andrea Mitchell on MSNBC this afternoon, Patricia Smith, mother of Sean Smith, one of the four killed in the Benghazi consulate attack in September 2012, explained how last week's Congressional hearing did not give her closure or satisfy her in anyway. Smith said she didn't learn anything new from the hearing and expressed her outrage at Hillary Clinton for not giving an explanation as to why her son was "sacrificed."

"You can't understand," she told Mitchell about losing an only child. "My only child was murdered and no one has told me why."

That may be true, but surely you’re not lumping Glen Doharty in the mix.....or the other contractors!

You are absolutely correct.

To us, where religious tolerance is exceptionally high, it is almost crazy to think you could do a “deal.”

I am sure we’ve all done business with people whom we disagree on almost everything—most of the time we would never know it.

Also, if my Grandfather had a complaint with anyone in particular, I don’t take it up with their grandchildren.

These people are idiots.

The truth is being hidden so as to protect hillary and her former boss.

We will know in five years—the truth will come out—and when it does—my bet—it will be worse than we imagined. Its like those old propaganda WW II movies that depicted how evil the Nazis were—After the war we found out they were much worse than we imagined.

They were there, specifically working that operation to help move weapons to Al Qeida. Their bravery in a shootout was beyond question. But their mission was to help arm Al Qeida in Syria. That is treason in my book. 9/11 = Al Qeida.
Fighting fiercely is to be admired, but -cannot- be separated from the cause being fought for.

Well stated.

Maam, if you would have pulled out a gun and blew her head off at the hearing I am sure the crowd would have cheered.

That is what people with nothing left to lose do - sometimes. Losing your ONLY child is pretty damned close to having nothing left to lose. As an observation only, people like Her Thighness should be much kinder to their Secret Service guards...because once you get a critical mass of people who you've put in the position of having nothing left to lose...well, you figure it out.

Can you not consider the contractors were there to infiltrate and stop those arms being given......

.....I don’t appreciate your callous words for dead men.

I believe Stephens culpable.......not even sure about Sean, but I really dislike what you’re doing to the others!!!!!

Yes, but it seems perhaps there will be no more “good guys” to expose it.

people will expose the truth for money and fame. The Tabliods will do the work the MSM will not do—and when it comes out—I believe it will stink to high heaven.
