Ok. The head of the CIA is gone, the head of the State Dept is gone, numerous Generals involved are gone.
The FBI can't find the mastermind while CNN walked up to him and interviewed him.
Congress can't get any of the CIA workers there to come testify.

Yup.."phony" scandal.
Sounds like what the mafia does. Clean up all the loose ends only the mafia just kills em. These guys better be looking over their shoulders and not get on a plane going anywhere overseas. Ron Brown learned that lesson the hard way.

Why won't the CIA even tell Congress who the survivors are so they can be called to the hearings ?

When did government get to the point where they can say "No" to a request from Congress ?


If this is a phony scandal wouldn't those survivors be the very ones to back that up ?
A: I think they're still looking for the bad guys and don't want CIA testimony making headlines.

So, Issa and his teabagger boys are left to make outrageous unfounded accusations. Which they love to do to make headlines in the absence of anything substantial.

Stay tuned for further developments.

My prediction: more egg on GOP faces.

Do you have anything to back that up ?
Congress says the CIA won't let their people testify to Congress.
Do you have anything to show that is a false accusation ?

Republicans don't have egg on their faces. That would be the drooling fools who believed this lying administration when they said Benghazi was caused by a YouTube video that was viewed by 500 people.

The only people with egg on their faces are the liberal drones who believe everything King Obama says, even though a third grader with an IQ of 80 could see that it's a lie.

I'm pretty sure you were one of the Obama sock puppets parroting the YouTube nonsense. Looks like you are the one who should be embarrassed.

You're still easy, Tracey.

So show us some proof that you have that Issa and the others are lying when they say the CIA won't let the survivors testify.

Just curious - do you still think the YouTube video is the reason Benghazi happened?

Accusations require back-up.

Ask Issa about his evidence.

Those making claims require evidence. The GOP has claims. They have no evidence.

There are few comparisons between Benghazi and Watergate that can be made.

And it is important to remember than Nixon never faced impeachment. He resigned before any proceedings began, but Obama will not resign. Period.

Behghazi was a tragedy and was handled poorly, but there is no evidence any coverup came from the White House. Politically, it is a dead horse, and no matter how hard it's beaten, it will never get back up and whinny.
No evidence yet. We'll have to see where this goes.

But I'm thinking there will be evidence that the coverup and shenanigans came from the State Dept. Hillary's was either the mastermind or grossly ignorant of what was going on.

Yes, we know. You think 4 dead Americans and the lies to shift blame are phony.
