Thank you for that well-documented critique of the committee, proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that all of their findings were in error.

What is this country coming to when mere citizens think that they can hold the government accountable for its actions? If there were any problems with what happened in Benghazi, I have fully faith and confidence that the FBI and the DOJ would have found it.

Mere citizens decided to fund this committee?

They took up a collection?

I have to check with Harry Reid for verification, but it was probably funded by those evil, lying, terrorist Koch brothers.

You took the cue.

Now try to dispute the facts of the findings.

The Citizens' Commission on Benghazi was set up by AIM (Accuracy in Media). AIM is also famous for leading the claim that the Clintons murdered Vince Foster when Foster committed suicide. It is an ultra conservative organization funded by reactionary billionaires like Richard Mellon Scaife.

The commission itself is made of has beens and never weres; mostly retired military who apparently have not been a duty status for twenty or thirty years.
The last name on the list of commission members is Col. Allen West. That tells me everything I need to know.

Then we have a list of the resources which the commission used to draw its conclusions.
1. Articles from AIM
2. Articles by commission members
3. Other srticles.
4 Fox News Channel special on Benghazi.
plus a lot of stuff which we already knew.

That's quite an investigation where the investigators (so called) go in with a preconceived outcome in mind and use their own unsubstantiated opinions to achieve that outcome.

The sad part is that most people here are going to think this report has any validity.

You got it wrong again. It was Richard Mellon Scaife.

So, in other words, it's just like the official White House response immediately after.

Pot meet kettle. (That's an accurate description of you Mostie.)

And it's quite a rebuttal when a critic (so called) goes after it with a preconceived outcome in mind and uses his own unsubstantiated opinions to ignore the content and attack the source.

Pot, meet alleged kettle.

What does it matter who wrote or published this or any report?

What does matter is that this administration knows who is responsible and what


really happened but still hasn't done a god damned thing to bring anyone to

justice.

And thats a fact Jack.

And this rightie resents it when the America-hating left wingers here give the dangerously incompetent and hateful Obama and the souless, cold-hearted enabler Hillary Clinton cover pertaining to the Benghazi terrorist attack.

And to think you guys on the left believe the Benghazi terrorist murders were caused by a You Tube video.

Shame on you; shame on all you heartless left wing nut jobs.

The left did not give a crap about our troops during the Iraq war, why would they care about mere diplomats?

American lives have no meaning to the left other than political fodder.

Are you at all concerned about your credibility?
