Is there a reason why it should be on every channel? If it's on C-SPAN, that's good enough for me.

IMO, Hillary knows exactly what happened. Whatever she did or didn't do, were the result of orders that were handed to her by Obama. People seem to forget that Valerie Jarrett is the force behind Obama and that's where he gets his direction from. Hillary, like everyone in the Obama administration get their orders from Obama. If Hillary was to tell what she knows she would surely end any chance of getting the 2016 nod from the Ds and be seen as a "traitor" to the party. It's just one of those things where the end justifies the means.

The Rs don't have a candidate that can win 2016, with the exception of Christie and I doubt the R party will support him, as they see him as a "traitor" for acknowleding Obama's response to Sandy, he's his own man and they won't be able to control him and make him bend to their agenda. He may also be very capable of working with the Ds.

Peel back the layers people. We will never know the full truth about Benghazi, nothing is going to happen to Obama, but there can be damage to someone who could possibly be the next President.
Lets say that there were no more hearings and with so many questions do you actually believe that a Democrat running against Hillary isn't going to bring this up? Do you really believe with so many answered questions it would be the end.

Answer the questions and if you are right and if Hillary is not at fault then it will not be an issue in 2016.

What are Democrats afraid of? They believe Hillary and Obama did nothing wrong, if that is true I would think that this would be a good for Hillary.

Errr, I wasn't referring to you, but the poster you were addressing, along with others. We're pretty much on the same page (as you so acknowledged.)

Did I say that, I DID say, investigate, ask questions, appear in court and the truth will come out. I would not be afraid of it. Democrats are trying everything they can (not reporting it, trying to discredit investigations, crying foul) If I am not guilty of anything I would say bring it on!

Please...

The Pubs are playing politics, pure and simple.

Something like 60 embassy personnel were killed under Bush's watch and the house didn't have a single question about any of those deaths.

Partisan ploy at its most naked. Nothing more. But it's all they've got and they're obviously trying to milk it.

Let's see how much mileage they can get out of it.

It is amazing that the libs just don't want to know what happened. They would simply prefer that the hearings simply pack up, close, and forget about the whole thing. Why? They FEAR the truth and the damage it could potentially bring to Obama and Hillary.

Libs say they KNOW what happened, therefore there is no reason for an inquiry. Really? How many libs here were-

on the ground in Libya
in the White House when the information was coming in
a part of Africom and heard the responses to requests for help
with Clinton or Obama that evening


Currently, WE DON'T KNOW these things. However, after yesterday, we know a hell of a lot more than we did the day before. It sure smells bad for Hillary and Obama, particularly when Hicks stated that Hillary agreed the consulate should be evacuated. If she agreed, who over ruled her? Who is Hillary's boss? Who ordered the available troops to "stand down"? Who delayed the FBI evaluation of the crime scene for 18 days?
The consulate was evacuated, as was the annex.

Are they denying it? It is politics because they dare question Obama and Hillary. How dare anyone do that? You would think that you would want the most competent people in positions of power.

And where was Obama our "commander in chief" while it was happening. Dealing with this type of thing, isn't that his job?

A commander-in-chief is the person exercising supreme command authority of a nation's military forces or significant element of those forces.

Benghazi is not a consulate. It's a CIA base.
