I would love to see it treated as treason, but sadly I don't think it will even get an impeachment. Everyone is leaving to keep him in office. We can all hope that someone has information stored away somewhere to help with the hearings.

An answer to the testimony question? Breitbart I heard on the news that he still plans to testify. Even though now he doesn't have to. My worry is that they will discredit everything he says. That's if they allow him to even get a word out.

It seems to me that once these folk are back in the private sector, the ability to make them appear before a court is better. No more "Executive Privilage".
And the more they say, "I plead the Fifth", the more guilty they appear to be. This and Fast and Furious should be the DNC's Watergate. Wait a second....no one died in the Watergate scandal.

Well I have been thinking through a few things...
one is that Petreaus and/or the President ....was screwing around with the 'ambassador' (are we still calling him that?) and the CIA director's mistress found out. hahaha
No, seriously.... This story is not being discussed well in the media. There's not the critical mass yet that doubts the COVER story. They still believe it, though it's been debunked.
I do know a few things -
1. Understanding the geography - the layout of the place it happened to the CIA annex AND how close Tripoli is to Benghazi- really helped me grasp the significance of the story.
2. We were told that some Libyans were really trying to PROTECT the ambassador. (that really plays into my kidnap set up theory) ok take THAT & the fact that
3. They seemed like trained fighters with weapons that were NOT casual weapons protestors would have. Why did they have such good weapons?
4. The firefight lasted 7 hours. I understand that 120? protestors died? With some trying to PROTECT the ambassador?
5. Why if they just wanted to kill him in retribution - for anything- even just a terrorist attack- would they be checking his pulse and REJOICING that he was still alive, before the rest of the crowd got him ?
6. The cover story was false. What does that cover story do? It demonizes Muslims. IMO, it makes Americans hate them even more....like...those low lifes would go crazy and kill people for insulting their prophet. (Ok, maybe some sects would, but a lot would NOT.)
7. What about allegations of gun running and the sudden elevation in this guy's status to ambassador? What was all that about? Was he just a gun runner to Syrian rebels? Have you guys SEEN some of the atrocities that the rebels are committing? Well both sides, for that matter, but still....
8. What exactly was the timeline of events. Let's go back over that. When were 'the riots.' When was WHAT released and/or corrected to the public?
It's a lot more than 4 Americans dying. It's a lot more than 4 Americans being left to fight for 7 hours without backup. Yes, that is major important - anyone - like me - who's ever served can feel that in the pit of their gut. BUT- like it or not, for most of the Americans out there, that means little. They are like, people die over there all the time, big deal. SO freaking sad....but honestly, that's what they think....I've heard it "Bush had some folks die in embassies under his watch too."
Like this is about some big attack on the president. Really, WHO even knows WHO was involved? But my gut says it is much bigger a web of intrigue than 4 Americans dying fighting alone.

I did read that several people tried to stop the attacks and that many had died trying to.
I don't think all Muslims are bad people, extreme Muslims are a different story.
The rebels over there are doing horrid things. I don't understand how people can do things like that to another human being.
I posted earlier in a comment post that for this to of happened so fast it had to be planned. How could it not be planned? At first it was blamed on this viral video. I don't think hundreds of extreme Muslims were standing around just watching you tube and stumbled on this video and went mad with weapons. Why would they have these weapons on them like that to start off with?
The problem I have with just about all of this is, for the most part it could of been avoided or at least stopped before all these deaths. But the administration chose to let it happen. I believe it was planned.

Wow!! No bug should of posted a picture like that. I would think a bug like that would be something random. That sounds like way more than just random. To have all the names of the Americans, Obama logo, and bloody hand. No, that was planned by someone. A very sick someone.

2 words.
Incompetent leadership.
This administration is flailing and placing blame before accepting ANY responsibility. Truth? The truth? They wouldn't know the truth if it came up and spit in their faces!

I must agree with you there. I think the truth is too hard for them to even grasp the concept of.
