House Speaker John Boehner is facing mounting pressure to create a special or select committee to investigate the Benghazi terror attacks in which four Americans were killed.

The House resolution to form a special committee now has at least 139 co-sponsors who are putting Boehner in the difficult position of leading efforts to get the White House to release emails on Benghazi-gate but not agreeing to the demands of many rank-and-file Republicans.

"Has Bohner officially switched to the DNC yet?"

He is sure acting like it. He has been nothing but an impediment and can be counted on to fold as the most crucial moment in any real confrontation with the Obama Regime. The GOP s not going to get anywhere unless it rids itself of the reach across aisle GOPe. And if they don't, they will probably hand the House to Pelosi in 2014.

Obama and the Rats must have some serious dirt on Bonehead. What else explains his refusal to appoint a special committee. Bonehead is gutless in everyway.

You don't understand. Their jobs are important, not the country.

No, and he won't. He can cause more damage to Conservatives and the "Republican" party by staying RINO rather than coming out of the closet as a 'Rat.

Let this one simmer a bit longer. There are reports of more would be whistle blowers, including some from the CIA. The survivors have not been allowed to testify. There is an investigation of ARB (Pickering and Mullen’s incomplete report) starting up.

The press is just starting to wake up. The WH is a bumbling, stumbling mess of nerves.

Issa’s committee is keeping the pressure on. Let them continue for a while longer.

When they get to the point where key people refuse to testify voluntarily, then unleash the hounds.

I wondered about that at the time. Some FReepers posted that she appeared before the committee voluntarily and was not subpoenaed.

(Besides, what difference at this time does it matter?) /snark)

Why is this a difficult position for Boehner, and why should pressure have to be applied to him to get him to do it.

Stop wimping around Boehner and do your freaking job for a change./

It’s time to kick ass.
