Unfortunately for GOP, the damage is done. This was a gift for the Clinton campaign.
It was. She should thank them.

Gowdy was awful sweaty, wasn't he?

Maybe 7 investigations ago. Now, it's Kabuki theatre for Republican blowhards who never met a camera they didn't like.

They don't really care. They are just waiting for that 'gotcha' moment.

The only thing on display was Hillary's lies, and they were front and center. Too bad you missed Rep. Jordan, who exposed MORE of her lies. Seems Hillary emailed BOTH the Libyan president and the Egyptian PM, informing them that the Benghazi was a planned al-Quaida terrorist attack--not the film she pointed to, even on the tarmac, when she told a serviceman's grieving parents, "We'll get 'em [those responsible for the film]."

Yes, Hillary Clinton's lies, lack of trustworthiness, political expediency, and finger-pointing (rather than introspection) were all on display, again, as they have been in her 30+ years in the public spotlight. There will always be people who don't care about that because there really is a sucker born every minute.

And Hillary Clinton is counting on it.
I think the, what is it, SEVENTH, committee on Benghazi was there to PROVE that these were Hillary's lies, and despite the millions of dollars spent, and hours of testimony, the committee couldn't PROVE anything. You seem to believe that accusations are sufficient.

Believe me, it would not take me 11 hours to ask that question.
So then you think that congressional Rs are a bunch of incompetents who would have a hard time getting out of the door in the morning. Not only the Rs running this committee, but the Rs that have run the previous committees.

I heartily agree.

I think for a future President it looked unprofessional. She smiled when questioned by a Dem and was growling when speaking to Gowdy. She can't like one side of the party and not get along with the other side, this is not Presidential.......we already have this kind of President.

Call him when?
In the middle of the attack?
She knew he was in danger. She knew there was no security at the embassy. Stevens asked for more protection why didn't she call him? She expected him to call her.......she was not concerned enough to make the call. I hear she was in another country partying, wonder why this is being hidden.....is Gowdy doing her a favor?

Others have noted the attacks attributed to cartoons - why not a video?
Those who attacked due to cartoons were already influenced by a radical ideology. It was the the radical ideology that led them to construe the cartoons as grounds for their actions.
Again, why not a video?
Who others, most are saying the video had nothing to do with it. Strange people are okay with a man in prison for using "freedom of speech" the video was not even that bad, it was somewhat funny! On top of showing how Islam does stone people and behead people for their beliefs.

Freedom of Speech? I think not, he was in prison for violating his probation from a prior conviction.

Filmmaker Behind Anti-Islam Film Released From Halfway House « CBS Los Angeles

Nakoula, whose name in court files is Mark Basseley Youssef, was sentenced in November to a year in federal prison for using false names in violation of a probation order on a bank fraud case. That case was not related to the film.

Perhaps you wish to tell us how Mrs. Clinton is responsible for those events half-way around the world but President Bush was not responsible for the 9/11 attacks on American soil?

You would think that Hillary cared more about the safety of "her good friend Chris". Instead, she IGNORED his pleas for more security and left him to die. That is a fact.

Hillary'a last "close personal friend" Vince Foster ended up dead in Ft. Marcy Park.

She feels the need to mention it as the caskets but no mention of Al Qaeda affiliated group?

From the bits I listened to, she tried to pawn it off on the CIA. That was the narrative that they told us to say! Let me get this straight, even when you know the truth, you will still publically lie because that's protocol? What happened to leaders with some freaking grit to say, hey guys, you got it wrong, and we can't deceive the American people here.

Even if Hilary truly did not lie then Benghazi shows that she is incompetent. The Democrats are going to now spin this as Republican bullies just trying to undermine her campaign and liberals will eat it up. Even with hardcore evidence on their side, the Republicans still manage to lose yet again!

I think the real truth is something uglier than Watergate. The leaders at the helm with Benghazi were more concerned with saving Obama's presidential campaign than American lives in peril. Obama needed to spin this fiction that he destroyed Al Qaeda by killing Bin Laden.

How will the Democrat voters know. The media barely reported on it when it happened. Last night Jesse Waters asked someone about Benghazi and that person kept referring to Benghazi as "him." Ben Ghazi)
