There's only so much you can stretch a scandal over nothing.

Which wittiness in the Benghazi hearings testified that President Obama or Hilary was the one who told the military to stand down?

Get ready to get ready, huh?

Why do I have this feeling that after the Republican show hearings are finally over, that my socks will still be firmly attached?

None of them. Which goes to prove that if your plan A is to "hold a lot of hearings and pray that a witness blurts out something scandalous", you probably should:
  1. Have a plan B.
  2. Implement plan B before the number of hearings reach double digits.

Not airing the hearing is not the same as not talking about.

Fox News is wonderful, and that screencap is wonderful too:

"Look everybody, this Benghazi business is so important, we're talking about it more than anyone else! Not only that, we're talking about how much we're talking about it. And we're talking about how much we're talking about it more than anyone else is talking about how much they're talking about it! How will the Obama Administration respond to this development?"

Fox News is wonderful.

You are trying to tell us that the media not reporting bad news in Congressional hearings about Barack Obama, tells us something about the **hearings**, instead of about the media?

Have you been asleep for the last six-plus years or something?

Poll: Americans angry about Benghazi can't find it on a map - UPI.com

"41 percent of Republicans say they consider this to be the "biggest political scandal in American history" compared to only 43 percent who disagree...

Of the 41 percent of Republicans who consider Benghazi to be the worst political scandal in American history, 39 percent are unaware that Benghazi is located in Libya. 10 percent said it's in Egypt, 9 percent in Iran, 6 percent in Cuba, 5 percent in Syria, 4 percent in Iraq, and 1 percent each in North Korea and Liberia, with 4 percent unwilling to venture a guess."

Thanks for that, I have to really try hard not to broadbrush Americans as I keep telling myself, no one can be this dumb. Alas, there are a few and just goes to show how education is failing, not only in the US, but globally.
