Democrats Leave Benghazi Hearing Before Testimony From Families
2013-09-20
[TOWNHALL] During the second portion of a House Oversight and Government Reform hearing about Benghazi Thursday on Capitol Hill, the majority of Democrats on the Committee left the room and refused to listen to the testimony of Patricia Smith and Charles Woods. Ms. Smith is the mother of Sean Smith, an information management officer killed in the 9/11 Benghazi attack. Charles Woods is the father of Navy SEAL Tyrone Woods, who was also killed.
As Uncle Phester points out in a similar post on this story:
...as has been so eloquently stated, "What difference does it make?"...
Hey, give them some credit: They're not doing anything Obama or Hillary didn't do to the Benghazi four.
...Or anything they wouldn't do to US military in Syria.

#11  my mistake - Speier stayed

That name reelee jumped out at me. She's had first-hand experience with being on the receiving end of murderous set-ups.

#10  But, but... According to Maureen Dowd, talking about Cindy Sheehan (who?), a mother who has lost a son has absolute moral authority.

#9  There are two political parties in the USA.
The evil party and the stupid party.
Guess which.

Sounds like a great TV ad for 2014.

#7  It's bad form to leave a mother who lost a son defending the US like they did. They often do not stay for the public testimonies, but this will serve as bad press for years.

#6  The Lynch (MA-9) one kind of surprises me; he's the closest thing to a Reagan Dem. in their lineup.

Why is that? Just asking.
