(CNSNews.com) - Sen. Rand Paul, who famously tangled with then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton at a January Senate hearing on the terror attack in Benghazi, says it's time to bring her back before Congress to answer more questions about the terror attack.
"See, the thing is, I think she needs to be deposed again," Paul told Fox News on Tuesday.
His comments came one day after former U.S. Attorney Joe DiGenova told a Washington radio station that the real scandal in Benghazi is the theft of 400 surface-to-air missiles by some "very ugly people." The Obama administration fears those missiles will be used to shoot down an airplane or blow up one of our embassies, he said.

What purpose will it serve? Even the village idiot knows that she will purjer herself each time she gives an answer. In addition, the same idiot knows full well nothing will happen to her. Again, I ask, what purpose will it serve?
As far as I’m concerned, having her testify under oath serves the purpose of compelling truthful testimony. Committing perjury subjects her to at least the possibility of criminal prosecution in a court of law. That is undoubtedly the reason Rand Paul wants wants to depose her, otherwise why would he bother?
There is the same chance of Hillary being prosecuted for perjury, or any other crime, for that matter is there is of hell freezing over.
I wouldn’t be so sure of that, remember what happened to her husband.
In any event, if she isn’t under oath, the temperature in hell won’t matter.
