Trey Gowdy blundered badly when he did not subpoena the Commander of the 6th Fleet.

Not so sure it was a 'blunder'.

I didn’t see anything about how long it would take them to get there. Seems pretty safe to assume they would have gotten there in time to save the seals though.

I think it was redacted in the last sentence.

the MSM measures its effectiveness by its ability to make Americans believe the most outlandish nonsense.

Smart people post at FR!

Good questions - I remember reading that the CIA compound was never secured after the attack was over. A reporter found Ambassador Steven’s journal while rummaging among the rubble. Unbelievable.
Another question: Were Panetta and Hillary put under oath before they testified before the Congressional committees and now proven to be liars? That is perjury. People are in prison now for way less than what these traitors have committed. Did anyone see Sandy Berger’s dead body to prove he is really gone from this earth? I have doubts about everything these days. Maybe there is this Liars Resort where all the Clinton/Soetoro “dead” enablers are hanging out, alive and well, and laughing their asses off.

Here is a good summary of Benghazi questions I just found. Maybe Stevens was killed not because he was helping Obama with the gunrunning to Turkey, but was not cooperating or actually didn’t even know. He was expendable, that’s obvious. Whether he and Barry were bathhouse buddies, who knows - wouldn’t be at all surprised.

It came out a week or two ago that Hillary slept through the meeting the next day after Benghazi.

Was she drunk that night and hung over the next day?

The exact timeline again requires consideration.

IIRC, Panetta and the 'security team' were meeting and did brief Obama on the initial incident. That was during the 5:00 p.m. ET hour.

6:07 p.m.: The State Departmentss Operations Center sends an email to the White House, Pentagon, FBI and other government agencies that said Ansar al-Sharia has claimed credit for the attack on its Facebook and Twitter accounts. (The existence of the email was not disclosed until Reuters reported it on Oct. 24.)

The Pentagon email is 7:19 p.m. ET

The Clinton-Obama phone exchange took place around 10:00 p.m., after which Clinton issued a statement. That statement was published on MSNBC website at 10:32 p.m. ET:

Actual Title:

NEW EMAIL shows Pentagon ASKED Hillary to LET THEM send help to Benghazi, proving Leon Panetta LIED!!

An email recently obtained by Judicial Watch shows that the Pentagon was demanding Hillary allow them to send help to Benghazi during the 2012 attack. This would completely contradict the claim from Hillary and Leon Panetta that no forces were available and within reach to provide help to the compound that was under siege.

From Fox News:

As the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi was unfolding, a high-ranking Pentagon official urgently messaged Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s top deputies to offer military help, according to an email obtained by Judicial Watch.

The revelation appears to contradict testimony Defense Secretary Leon Panetta gave lawmakers in 2013, when he said there was no time to get forces to the scene in Libya, where four Americans were killed, including U.S. Ambassador to Libya Christopher Stevens.

And all the jackasses who did not do everything they could to keep Obama from a second term is having unbelievable consequences for the country.

People didn’t vote for the lesser evil as president in 2012. Clearly, the lesser evil would have been Romney. Unfortunately, a real conservative was not going to win in Nov. 2012. I didn’t want Romney, but either he or Obama would be president. Too many idiots stayed home or voted 3rd party instead of stopping Obama.

So I guess in this case, as far as the presidency is concerned, since the lesser evil was not actually elected, it blows the hell out of your comment. You will not get an argument when it comes to Congress.

That terminology is for aircraft engines as they are started and "spin up" to power. This leads me to believe he was referring to attack aircraft or transports. Either way we had something we could send to save those guys.

Purportedly, there was a Special Forces detachment at NAS Sigonella on Sicily. Plus a squadron of F/A-18s ready to roll.

It is 475 miles from Sigonella to Benghazi.

B/C he is as much an impotent lying weasel as the rest of the frauds in CONgress. These people have no spine, no moral courage, no principles they will not compromise - and no sense of loyalty, except to their Wall Street leash holders. That is why we call them sociopaths.

Hillary wasn’t in the military chain of command, that’s the presidents decision.

You get a C for Congress. You’re coming around. You’re still wrong as usual on Romney. Same argument as ever. Still wrong as ever. You helped drive the GOP left. Their 100% capitulation to Batty is proof of that.

You can’t say It’s wrong for the Presidency but not wrong for congress. That makes zero sense. It isn’t some compartmentalized thing or a whim.
