Dude, that is so 6 years ago!

Benghazi was 2 years ago. I just pointed it out to show the hypocrisy of the Fox News crowd.

When will conservatives quit making a fuss out of fake doo doo piles?

Because it is an election year, pure and simple. The repubs prob knew about this when it happened but held off on it till now to use it for their advantage in the midterms.

In spite of motives of others for bringing up this scandal, this information is relevant and guilty parties should pay.

The Democrats have been withholding information that Congress has requested for all the months following the incident in Benghazi. This last e-mail that was finally released only because Judicial Watch pushed for it, and that Congress didn't get when asked is why this Committee is moving forward. It is the "straw that broke the camel's back" as Boehner stated. They needed something more concrete to move forward and this last email is it. It would be considered contempt of court if this information has been requested and held back in any regular court of law.

Pay for what?

Again,

What really happened that day?

What is this admin guilty of?

WASTE OF TIME BY THE GOP!!!! They need to spend energy on issues that really matter to people. Not fake scandals.

-Yes the state dept. denied additional security. Guess who else did? Stevens himself. Twice! The last one being a month before the attacks.
-It is very obvious that it was a planned attack by a militia in Libya
-However, many media outlets report that the militants purposefully used the video as the reason for their attack, and even gathered a crowd of outsiders who were angry at the video
-Given that we didn't have eyes on the ground till an hour after the attack had started, and given most of the people in the area BELIEVED the attack to be caused by the video, and give the CIA email from the CIA Terrorism Intelligence department mentioned the video as the reason, and GIVEN there were about a dozen other protests in and around the ME because of the video, I don't blame the administration for getting it wrong. I don't think it was a cover-up, I think it was just a mess up in intelligence. But again your GOPers can excuse a mess up in intelligence for 9/11 and the Iraqi, but not something as common place as an attack on an embassy or consulate. Its nothing more than politicizing a tragic event.

THERE IS NOTHING TO UNCOVER HERE!

However, like a broken clock that can be right twice per day, he isn't any different than most politicians and media outlets - they say enough truth to remain relevant - at least to those that support them.
