Just when you thought the Fox News-led crusade to politicize a terrorist attack that killed four Americans couldn't get any more exploitative, it does.

Here's the latest claim: The survivors of the deadly terror attack last September represent the key to the whole story, and only when Republican members of Congress are able to interview them, and possibly even subpoena them, will the truth come tumbling out.

Never mind that the survivors were interviewed by the FBI within days of the deadly assault and that the FBI's investigation remains ongoing. Never mind they were later interviewed by investigators working for retired Ambassador Thomas Pickering and a former Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman, Adm. Mike Mullen, who led an independent review of the State Department's handling of the attack. Never mind that even the conservative press has reported on why, for legal reasons, it might not be permissible for the survivors, many of whom are likely intelligence officers, to testify at this time before Congress.

And never mind that when then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton appeared before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee in January and answered Benghazi-related questions for hours, not a single senator pressed her about the survivors.

[Thinkingabout]

1. The real investigation which should go on is interviewing the members of Congress who elected

Not to attend the briefing about Benghazi. Why are they continuing to waste money and time needed to govern in asking questions which would have been answered in the briefing. It is wasteful spending by those who yells about too much spending. The repubs must be so corrupt they expect everyone else to be the same.
