On Benghazi, Dems Double Down on Denial
Powerline ^ | May 4, 2014 | John Hinderaker

Posted on 05/05/2014 11:36:20 AM PDT by QT3.14

This morning on Fox News Sunday, Democratic Congressman Adam Schiff suggested that his party will boycott the House’s proposed select committee on Benghazi:

Establishing a select committee to investigate the State Department’s handling of the 2012 attack on a U.S. diplomatic outpost in Libya is a “colossal waste of time,” according to Rep. Adam B. Schiff (D-Calif.).

“We’ve had four bipartisan investigations already,” Schiff said on “Fox News Sunday,” adding that the Republican plans to create the committee are politically motivated.

Schiff also said that Democratic leaders should not appoint anyone to the committee. “I don’t think it makes sense, really, for Democrats to participate,” he said. “I think it’s just a tremendous red herring and a waste of taxpayer resources.”

I hope they don’t appoint anyone, I am sick of “fair and balanced”.

The democrat party is a criminal organization cleverly disguised as a political party.

To: I want the USA back

What the committee has to find out along the way is if there has been coordination between the white house and the dems and stalling this inquiry. They can easily then argue the entire democrat party is in collusion to deny the Republic of honest government by stiffling debate and hiding criminal behavior.

I think that will play well to any voter.

Good! If the Democrats don’t want to do their jobs, they can all resign and go home. The country would be WAY better!

"No man left behind" is more than an Army Ranger credo
it's the character of America.

Sounds like the entire Democrat party could be considered unindicted co-conspirators.

If a tree falls in the forest ...

Unfortunately, the media control the message for most Americans. The MSM will either (1) ignore it, or (2) slant their coverage and call it a modern-day lynching attempt by those eeeevil Conservatives.

Oh, how I wish I'm wrong, but I've seen this dance too many times to think otherwise.

If the dead Ambassador could talk or his assistant had information about his cry for help before he was murdered?
Someone should know the details about his murder.
