COMMENTS:
* Didn't they release a report saying there was no wrong doing? How many hearings are they gonna have?
* You righties will forever say that you are not getting any cooperation. No amount of cooperation will EVER be enough. It's nothing more than a cultish, silly, conspiracy theory and it is wasting a lot of taxpayer money for no good reason whatsoever.
* Right, which has now been "investigated" by the Republicans more than any other attack on the US in our history, including Pearl Harbor and 9/11, which killed about 6,000 times as many Americans.
* The truth the Repulicans want is to disrupt her bid for President, what they don't know is regadless of that nobody wants any of the Republican canidates, they are running on a Benghazi Scandal and have nothing else to offer except see she is in a scandal, or some of them are so dumb they are still attacking President Obama who is not running.
* Isn't it odd that ALL these accusations against obama and the ranting and raving against democrats have uncovered exactly nothing? Its certainly not for lack of trying.
* There have been eight previous investigations and every question anyone could think up has been asked and answered. The results of the investigations are online for anyone who wants to know what happened and they have been online for months. All of them came to the exact same conclusion - "no wrong doing found." Either the GOP is incompetent or stupid if there is something to find and they haven't found it yet. But just keep buying in to to partisan nonsense and vote for people whose only route to winning an election is to make unfounded accusations against the opponent. Think about it.

Top Democrat on House Benghazi panel: 'What have we accomplished?'
By Martin Matishak, May 7. 2015
The top Democrat on the House committee investigating the Benghazi attacks is ripping the panel on the eve of its one-year anniversary, suggesting the effort has been a waste of time.
“What have we accomplished? After a full year, it now seems obvious that this investigation is being dragged out in order to attack [former] Secretary [of State Hillary] Clinton and her campaign for president — squandering millions of taxpayer dollars in the process — while Republicans use this tragedy to raise campaign funds,” Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.), the ranking member on the House Select Committee on Benghazi, said Thursday in a statement.
“This is exactly the opposite of what we promised the victims’ families, and I urge the Select Committee to drop this political charade and focus on implementing reforms that will protect our diplomatic corps around the world,” he added.
His tough words come as panel chairman Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.) weighs when to schedule Clinton’s long-awaited testimony before the committee.
In recent months, Gowdy has insisted that the former secretary of State, who is now running for the presidency, would have to testify at least twice; once to discuss her use of a personal email server while in office, and a second time to go over the assault that left four Americans dead.
However, earlier this week Clinton’s attorney sent a strongly worded letter to Gowdy saying the 2016 hopeful would only appear once.
A panel spokesman said the select committee would take the letter “into consideration” and that Gowdy would “issue a statement on behalf of the Committee regarding the path forward.”
The House voted 232-186 on May 18, 2014, to create a select committee to investigate the attack, with seven Democrats voting in favor.
Democrats initially threatened to boycott the panel, arguing that the investigation was a partisan witchhunt designed to hurt Clinton’s White House chances.
The panel has not met since January. Its last hearing was a marked departure from previous meetings, with Democrats and Republicans throwing partisan barbs at one another.
