The Republicans may be terrible at governance and they may even be awful at politics. But if there’s one thing they know how to do it’s stoke a scandal. In fact, it’s their very special gift and one to which they can always turn to rile up the RUBES and make the Democrats dance on the head of a pin.
This isn’t about Obama, not really. They have another Clinton to kick around and her involvement in Benghazi..

Besides the need to silence the story that al-Qaeda wasn't dead or on the run, the truth about the CIA gun (Actually missile!) running operation in Libya needed to be quashed during the election.

 

Up to 35 CIA operatives were working in the city during the attack last September on the US consulate that resulted in the death of Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans, according to CNN.

 

 

The circumstances of the attack are a subject of deep division in the US with some Congressional leaders pressing for a wide-ranging investigation into suspicions that the government has withheld details of its activities in the Libyan city.

 

The television network said that a CIA team was working in an annex near the consulate on a project to supply missiles from Libyan armouries to Syrian rebels.

 

 

Sources said that more Americans were hurt in the assault spearheaded by suspected Islamic radicals than had been previously reported. CIA chiefs were actively working to ensure the real nature of its operations in the city did not get out.

 

 

So only the losses suffered by the State Department in the city had been reported to Congress.

More and more, it appears, the coverup is stirring the pot.  Speaker Boehner tried to stay aloof from Benghazi. However, after the latest documents surfaced from a Freedom of Information Act judgment revealed that the administration had denied those documents to Congress, he was left with little alternative but to call for a Select Committee.  The administration brought this down on their own heads.

 

I hope the rules require members to ask questions and clarifications only,  The present committees limited members to 5 minutes each, of which, members of both parties indulged in 4 minutes of declarative statements against each other, and one minute of questions.  Watching became impossible, as I desired to strangle the lot of them. 

 

 

What did Bush know when he attacked the wrong country and killed 4000+ of our soldiers and murdered 100's of thousands if little innocent children and their parents leaving many little children, just as precious as yours, left alone sitting crying in streets and mud holes?

 

...........and you have no trouble lamenting these four who were warned not to go until proper security was in place? ...makes no sense to anyone other than the so-called conservative religious racists who don't like a black man. Have I got your number or what?

Just how much midterm juice will Democrats get out of the fabulous 0.1% GDP growth from 2014Q1, or from the 1.9% growth in all of 2013? Plenty, promised Debbie Wasserman Schultz yesterday at a Christian Science Monitor breakfast meeting. The economy will be a big plus for Democrats in November, “no question,” although at the same time the DNC chair dismissed the national mood as “not as relevant”:

dire the lackey[1], I believe you testified you were getting filthy rich with your investment portfolio despite the House of Representatives gnawing at the legs of the US Economy. Wasn't that you? I believe it was.
