TELL CONGRESS
They Must Form a Special Committee to Investigate Benghazi
Obama and his cronies continue to gag and hide the Benghazi survivors.
Demand the survivors' FBI interviews be released to Congress
and a Special Prosecutor be appointed immediately.
Why do you think you have a right to their names?
And why does this website proclaim that "we need to stop the leaks to protect our troops" while at the same time demanding same?
Hypocrisy at it's finest.

The public doesn't need the names. The Committee does so that the investigation can go forward.
In this case, I doubt that protection of our troops is on the administration's minds. It's more like self-preservation of them and their jobs, I suspect.
For some of us we'd just like the truth. Just........the truth.
We'll never get it. Too many politicians are corrupt, too many are covering their asses, too many are covering their bosses asses, too many don't care, and too many are just plain incompetent.
I'm one of those people who just think that the American people are owed the truth.
1. The citizens, because if we don't know what happened, and just accept the coverups as "business as usual" it just emboldens politicians to lie and lie bigger the next time.
2. The military, because some of their own died trying to defend Stevens and the embassy. All those who died, died while serving our country and representing US overseas.
3. The parents of those who died. All of these dead patriots had parents who loved and cared about them. They deserve to know how their children died.
I don't have a political agenda in wanting to know what happened. I just think that our government should not be able to get away with the lies, the deceit, the coverups, and the disrespect they have displayed.
Re: #3, how do you know they don't? Their family members were most likely covert operatives. Do you really believe that their names and missions should be public knowledge? Should their families now be at risk to satisfy your need to know?
Really?

"And imagine my surprise further when California Rep. Darell Issa said he wants numerous investigators hired and wants to create seven subcommittees to hold “one or two hearings each week.†“I want seven hearings a week, times 40 weeks.†He wants to launch investigations into the bank bailout, the stimulus and, potentially healthcare reform."
Why don't conservatives demand some thing else of the people representing them ?
Fear is their biggest motivator. They need it, feed on it and manufacture it when it doesn't exist.
I would like to ask some questions myself. When Sen. McCain said[and I heard from his lips to my ears]...AMB Chris Stevens was a close personal friend of mine.
Senator McCain, if AMB Stevens is a close personal friend of yours, did he convey to you his concerns about security at the mission? If he did, what was your response? Did you lodge his concerns with the Senate Oversight committee, The State Department, or the White House? If not...Why?
I've wondered about this as well. The good senator claims that he received a letter from ambassador Stevens in July wherein he expressed his concerns about security. If this is true, why didn't McCain push for better security then? Why didn't he hold hearings then? Or at minimum pick up the phone and demand action? If he had information and didn't share it, isn't he culpable to some degree?
Since it involves the incompetence of both Hillary and Obama, the media lap dogs will not touch this issue, and the liberal fan club of those two politicians don't care what went wrong.

The media has covered it extensively. The problem for those who are still wringing their hands is that they covered what was true, rather than the fevered hallucinations of right-wing outrage junkies.

Well, we all saw how Joe Wilson and Valerie Plame got swept under the Bush carpet, didn't we. That story lasted what? Fifteen minutes?
