Clinton To Testify On Benghazi Next Week

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will testify next Wednesday on the Sept. 11 attack in Benghazi before the House Foreign Affairs Committee, incoming chairman Ed Royce (R-Calif.) announced late Monday.

Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans died in the attack on a U.S. mission in the restive Libyan city. Republicans have assailed the administration for failing to provide adequate protection to its diplomats and for initially saying the attack was linked to a peaceful protest.

“I appreciate Secretary Clinton’s desire and willingness to testify before the Committee as we continue to examine this deadly terrorist attack in an effort to ensure that nothing like it happens again,” Royce said in a statement. “My intention is for this hearing to focus on why this attack was not better anticipated, what leadership failures at the State Department existed, and what management deficiencies need to be corrected in order to better secure our diplomatic facilities abroad and protect our diplomats serving in them.

Well, she certainly has had plenty of time to make up a real good story. I'll bet she had at LEAST 10 lawyers working every day on this, and the questions will probably be pre-approved by her legal team as well.

Might as well be watching am episode of Law and Order....

Obama has a free pass on everything so it's just a waste of time!

She should be testifying about why she was in a plane crash in Iran.

Only testimony she has to worry about is the one she gives God for her mistakes.

All the others are a joke and lie anyway

Maybe she'll repent after her recent near death experience and admit Obama intentionally allowed weapons he had provided for the Gadaffi overthrow as well as Libya's own recovered weapons stores to fall into Al Qaeda hands.
Those very weapons are being used again against our troops and French troops in central Africa by guess who? Al Qaeda linked Islamic terror groups that now, thanks to Obama are stronger than ever.
Aren't Obama voters brilliant people?

Yes, yes we are. To your point, weak as it may be, No one intentionally gave Al Qaeda weapons. Unfortunate that we as a nation couldn't blast that sob twenty plus years ago when the then republican presidency(if thats who we are blaming it on), propt up Kadafi and his regime in the first place. Pick your poisen. War is not a pretty thing. Its not a perfect science. Hopefully our president saved as many lives as posible when its all said and done.

Oh you mean in Mali 10:51? Wasn't that the African country Romney warned at one of the debates was getting overrun with al qaeda and Obama said Romeny doesn't know what he's talkiing about-al qaeda's been defeated?
al qaeda's going to be stronger than every before like nothing we have ever seen with many many countries to operate in thanks exclusively to obama and his admin.
I'm convinced obama voters all have IQ's in the moron, imbecile or idiot range of the scale. No other explanation for their stupidity and ignorance.
