Conservative columnist Charles Krauthammer set off a firestorm earlier this week when he said that his fellow Republicans need to let go of their quixotic obsession with the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya. Think Progress reported that in the wake of the statements, conservatives have lashed out at Krauthammer, accusing him of betraying his principles.
Politically speaking the administration has won, Krauthammer said in an appearance on Fox News. They ran out the clock.
Krauthammer said that the country at large has grown tired of discussing the attack, which killed four Americans, including Ambassador Chris Stevens.
Larry Ward of the Special Operations Speaks (SOS) blog told Think Progress by email, Mr. Krauthammers premise for his assumption is flawed. Benghazi is not nor never was about politics. It is only about justice and accountability.
We can never and will never relent on our mission to find justice for those massacred and injured in Benghazi, he said.
At right-leaning commentary site HotAir.com, Allahpundit wrote, Its actually not true that the public is tired of this investigation.

(262 posts)1. Benghazi was never a controversy.
Let's talk about the other bombings during W years, then we can talk Benghazi when all the investigations are done and complete first on the other bombings.
