Why have the Benghazi hearings taken so long? Are Democrat members of the House Oversight Committee justified in attacking chairperson Trey Gowdy for not wrapping them up?
Well, please read these excerpts from (in part) Lucas Tomlinson’s article at foxnews.com; then decide:
The State Department on Friday turned over more than 1,100 pages of records to the House Select Committee on Benghazi, over a year after the committee first requested them for their ongoing investigation into the 2012 terror attack on the U.S. consulate in Libya.
The committee’s chairman, Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., also criticized the State Department’s delayed response to the request.
The records released included emails from then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s then-chief of staff, Cheryl Mills, and Clinton aides Jake Sullivan, Human Abedin, as well as then-U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice, according to a statement from the Congressional committee.
Also included were files stored on computer networks used by senior employees within Clinton’s office.
Gowdy slammed the State Department over the length of time it took for the records to be released, following the initial November 2014 request.
“It is deplorable that it took over a year for these records to be produced to our committee,” Gowdy said, criticizing his Democratic colleagues for “never lifting a finger to help us get them.”
Are you still wondering why the committee’s work is taking so long? I hope not.
Are you wondering why chairperson Gowdy is angry at the Democrat committee members who have the nerve to attack the committee’s progress, when the Democrat-run State Department is so instrumental in causing it to do so? I hope not.
If you want to wonder about something, wonder about why Fox News – which is derided by the self-superior “journalists” at ABC, NBC and CBS – has reported this story more comprehensively than any of them; why ABC, NBC and CBS have left their viewers so unknowledgeable about what is really going on with the Benghazi hearings.
Could it be pro-Hillary Clinton media bias?
That’s like asking if LeBron James has any talent for the game of basketball.
