Benghazi committee calls on Hillary Clinton to testify in May
The Washington Times ^ | April 23, 2015 | By David Sherfinski

Posted on 04/23/2015 12:54:25 PM PDT by Oldeconomybuyer

The House Select Committee on Benghazi is asking former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham to testify in two upcoming public hearings, one to be held during the week of May 18 on her use of a private email system while serving as the nation’s top diplomat, and another to be held by June 18 specifically on the Sept. 11, 2012, terrorist attack on the U.S. compound in Libya.

“With her cooperation and that of the State Department and administration, Secretary Clinton could be done with the Benghazi Committee before the Fourth of July,” Rep. Trey Gowdy, South Carolina Republican and the committee’s chairman, said in a statement. “It is necessary to call Secretary Clinton twice because the committee needs to ensure we have a complete and responsive record and all the facts before we then substantively question her on the Benghazi terrorist attacks.”

Mr. Gowdy outlined the proposed time frame, in which Mrs. Clinton would detail her email use in a hearing the week of May 18 and come for a separate hearing “no later than June 18, 2015,” in a letter dated April 23 to Mrs. Clinton’s lawyer, David E. Kendall.

Sad.....nothing will ever happen to her. She will never be held accountable for anything.

Regardless, there should be a disclaimer next to every thread if her face is going to appear.

It'll be interesting to see how Killary reacts to this. Maybe she'll try and say she has a previous campaign commitment.

Gowdy wants to see her perjure herself, here. Nice. He’s building her a rat hole to fall into. Especially when they get at some more leaks and more evidence to contradict the testimony before the committee.

With all the rising pressure on the old girl, this is one more turn of the dial. This little appearance will not be made easy on her, and a stumble is exactly what the committee wants to see, I believe. She is guilty, guilty, guilty, but they have to PROVE it.

Not true. She will be held accountable for every idle word she has ever spoken. Her judgement is going to be brutal. For some reason, I don’t think she will hear our Savior say, “Well done good and faithful servant, enter into your eternal reward.”

I disagree...within 2 months the new AG woman will indict the Shill! That is why the Republicans voted for her. Bumbles and Moochie never liked the Clintons. They ARE white!

In the back of my mind I have been wondering this. We know they don’t like them. Let her spend a lot of money then .....boom pull the rug out from under her.

She should just lie. Conservatives love it when people lie.

Lying doesn't matter. Hey, our favorite candidates do it.

It's no big deal. It doesn't matter what they say. It matters what they do. /Sarcasim

I have lost faith in Gowdy.

He has been at this for a long time already. He is asking her to testify. He needs to compel her testimony, and needs to subpoena the server - by any means necessary.

I've come to suspect the Clinton Foundation was the dirty money financier of the Moslem Brotherhood and is directly tied into the Benghazi fiasco. It was a Clinton op that backfired and got many innocents killed.

we all know what she will be saying, I don’t recall, my mind is like mush, I misspoke, what difference does it make. I never said that. Just slap her on the side of the head every time she opens her yap.

I see that you are optimistic about Gowdy and his approach.

I am discouraged that Gowdy says he cannot find a way to subpoena Clinton’s server. My cousin Vinny could get that server.

I hope that this is some sort of legal trap, as you suggested. Perhaps the long delays in any action from Gowdy’s committee are on purpose - to take Clinton out of the POTUS race.

I will remain optimistic for another month or two.

Gowdy had better get himself a body guard. And another dog!
