Democratic Lawmakers Call Benghazi Security Officers Liars

Scandal: The California Democrat who suggested that his party boycott the Benghazi Select Committee as a waste of time now accuses those who fought on the CIA annex roof of lying "to promote a new book."

.....

Calling the yet-to-be-approved committee a "tremendous red herring," Schiff said: "I don't think it makes sense, really, for Democrats to participate."

Well, the Democrats participated in the committee that conducted its first hearing on Wednesday, and Schiff, along with Rep. Adam Smith, D-Wash., finds himself one of the Democrats picked by ...Nancy Pelosi to sit on it.

.....

The hearing came right after Kris Paronto, Mark Geist and John Tiegen, three CIA contractors who on that night fought terrorists from the roof of the CIA's Benghazi annex building, confirmed that there was indeed a stand-down order given that caused a critical half-hour delay.

.....

Schiff, who was not in Benghazi that night, says Paronto, Geist and Tiegen are making up a tale to sell their book, as if their story is less plausible than the proven lie that the Benghazi attack was caused by an inflammatory YouTube video, a myth promoted both by then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and President Obama.

After seeing clips of Schiff saying the contractors were trying to sell their book and Smith claiming a stand-down order "was never given," Geist said he "would like to invite Mr. Schiff to a debate ... we can talk about it." He wondered if Schiff wished to "say that to my face."

.....

We would suggest to Gowdy that he invite the three to testify before the Select Committee to see if Schiff has anything approaching the courage of the men who risked their lives for their country in Benghazi.

I’ve listened to interviews with them, and found them to be totally credible. What is Schiff? He’s nothing more than a liberal political hack.

Given what they’ve been through, if I were one of those guys, I’d find Schiff and just straight up beat the hell out of him.(or hire a raving group of predatory fags to gang rape his ass, but he might enjoy that too much)....

Schiff won’t. He’s a sleazy lawyer and a loud mouthed coward and knows making such allegations while not in house session he can not only get his treasonist covering ass kicked but also sued by a Seal Member.

Which is precisely why ALL Public Servants and Officers of the Court should be under Penalty of Perjury for ANY AND ALL statements made, regardless of where they were made. As A Lawyer he should be disbarred immediately.

I heard Hannity offer to bring those RATs on to “confront” the security guys. Sean was po’ed and I’m with him 1000%.

I have often been critical but there is no question that Sean is a patriot and loves this country as much as do I.

What can I say? Pelosi is a Nazi whore. We need to start planning for an American-style Nuremberg trial and drag these Nazi/commie democrats before the bench.

Well, 4 Americans are dead because of someones malfeasance. There should be no argument there. The rats are just trying to minimize the political damage. As for the dead? “What difference does it make”

Today’s Democrat in Washibngton has no brains or conscience. The lengths these people go to defend their rotten agenda and ideology is sickening.

Right on. Democrats are America's communists. What makes it interesting is a good part of the democrat Senators and House members are mentally ill and have an IQ of 10.

No it is not. These laws were written to allow for open debate. NOT personally attacking American Citizens. See bills of attainer.

When the Constitution was written, when some sleazebag like Schiff attacked someone’s honor they got called out to duel

Back then the little coward would have been shot dead in the street

Missiles to turkey and then on to Syrian Rebels.

Iran revolutionary guard did the attack on BENGHAZI because they support Assad.
