Hearing details:
WASHINGTON – House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa today announced three witnesses who will appear at a full committee hearing, “Benghazi: Exposing Failure and Recognizing Courage,” on Wednesday, May 8, 2013, at 11:30 AM in 2154 Rayburn House Office Building.
“I applaud these individuals for answering our call to testify in front of the Committee. They have critical information about what occurred before, during, and after the Benghazi terrorist attacks that differs on key points from what Administration officials – including those on the Accountability Review Board – have portrayed,” said Issa. “Our committee has been contacted by numerous other individuals who have direct knowledge of the Benghazi terrorist attack, but are not yet prepared to testify. In many cases their principal reticence of appearing in public is their concern of retaliation at the hands of their respective employers. While we may yet add additional witnesses, this panel will certainly answer some questions and leave us with many new ones.”
Witnesses: Mr. Mark Thompson
Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Counterterrorism
US Department of State
Mr. Gregory Hicks
Foreign Service Officer and former Deputy Chief of Mission/Chargé d’Affairs in Libya
US Department of State
Mr. Eric Nordstrom
Diplomatic Security Officer and former Regional Security Officer in Libya
US Department of State
In October 2012, the Oversight Committee held the first hearing on the Benghazi attacks, which exposed denials of security requests and forced the Administration to acknowledge that the attacks were not sparked by a protest of a YouTube video, contrary to claims made by Obama Administration officials.

Call in the beast master to take care of the most hideous member of Congress lesbianic Elinor Holmes Norton
All Norton can say is it was not for political reasons...lol...well okay..just blatant glaring incompetency will do. Neither Hillary or Obama answered the 3:00 am call.
Norton lying.
Ambassador Daniel Benjamin - Bureau was not taken out of decision making.
CT Bureau was included but not the part most effective while under an attack
He’s not letting her get away with her attempt to call him a liar (so to speak).
Amen
I muted Baloney..
Listen to how disrespectful this dog is.
>Norton is spinning. Just as dumb as Cummings.<
That wrinkled old Commie is doing everything she can to discredit Thompson.
I’m not looking for it. I was trying to help a poster who said it was not on her tv, or she couldn’t find it. Thnx.
Her job is to cover for why the most important people were kept out of the loop.
This Norton is a real BITCH. And I don't use the word lightly.
What article is this harridan quoting?
Norton doesn’t want the truth just cover for Bam and Hill. Sick witch!
Norton is calling Thompson a liar! How dumb is she???
Norton is calling Thompson a liar! How dumb is she???
They are there to disrupt and protect Obama and Hillary.
They don't need to make sense.
They want people to tune out...
She’s talking over him, trying to “testify” for him. These hacks make me sick.
You've been reported to the Deparment of Redundancy Department ;^)
Let’s not get all involved in the chain of command. Got it.
