Issa Statement on Benghazi Whistleblower Hearing and Unanswered Questions

WASHINGTON – Today, the House Oversight and Government Reform Chairman Darrell Issa (R-CA) released the following statement after hearing the compelling new testimony of three career diplomats about what occurred before, during and after the Benghazi terror attacks of September 11, 2012.

“Today’s hearing offered officials at the State Department the opportunity to be heard. These witnesses revealed new information that undermines the Obama Administration’s assertion that there are no more questions left to answer about Benghazi. Numerous questions are still unanswered, despite months of dogged investigation by the Oversight Committee,” Issa said. ‘ This Congressional seat filler continues to publicly debate an issue that at best was a tactical error at a time of  unrest in an unstable country. There are always other actions that could have been taken in retrospect but to continue  (seemingly) forever is a waste of voters money. The Agriculture department is being pressed by conservative Congressional members to a make cuts in the food aid program for needy Americans because it costs too much. I ask what is too much to feed the needier Americans? AKA Seniors, low income, single parents, unemployed and underemployed. The sequester is still pounding the economy since the Dupublicans and Scamocrats can’t seem to do the job that should have been done months ago. We have 535 representatives(?) who we know are good at getting media coverage as their smoke and mirror policy while the public suffers for their inadequacy. many of us advocate for Congressional term limits but we must remember that Congress enacts such laws and given their track record so far -“it aint happening”. The limits are controlled by the voters with a simple “X” , filled in circle  and pulling a lever.
