Release of Benghazi Report on Hillary Clinton Likely Pushed to Election Season

[alp227]

The findings of a Republican-led committee investigating Hillary Clinton’s response to the deadly 2012 attack in Benghazi, Libya, likely will not be released until next year, just months before the 2016 presidential election.

Representative Trey Gowdy of South Carolina, chairman of the U.S. House Select Committee on Benghazi, has been emphasizing a desire for the panel to finish investigative work by the end of 2015, including its review of Clinton’s e-mail practices as secretary of state. Now that seems less likely.

In a statement on Tuesday to Bloomberg News, committee spokesman Jamal Ware confirmed the delay. “Factors beyond the committee’s control, including witness availability, compliance with documents requests, the granting of security clearances and accreditations—all of which are controlled by the Executive branch—could continue to impact the timing of the inquiry’s conclusion,” Ware wrote.

Even if the investigation phase could be concluded by the end of 2015, he said in an interview, the committee would need more time to analyze the information collected, and compile findings and conclusions into a written report. No specific date for release in 2016 of the committee’s final report was offered by Ware.

1. they better be careful

people might get the idea that their interest in Benghazi is politically motivated.

[Cryptoad]

2. Reckon?

[Turbineguy]

3. I wonder when they have scheduled the

Reichstag, I mean, Capitol fire?

[Politicalboi]

4. Maybe the fact that Marvin Bush was responsible for the security of the WTC

Should be brought up. A Bush is a Bush is a Bush.

[emulatorloo]

5. Of course! Ghostwritten by Jerome Corsi and published by Worldnut Daily and Murdoch

There will be a very unflattering pic of Hillary on the cover. Will hit # 1 on the NYT best seller list because the Koch Bros will buy them by the ocean liner load and store them in their golden warehouse until it is safe to recycle them

[blackspade]

14. Recycle them?

More like soak them in tar sands oil and then light them on fire heaped around union members, the poor, minorities, women, and any other 'entitled' class.

[emulatorloo]

16. Yeah I think you nailed it

[kairos12]

6. Actually statement should read.

"In consultation with the Koch Brothers and other Teabagger Allies the committee has decided to delay release of this bogus report till next year as to damage Secretary Clinton's chances to be elected President of the United States."

[Oldtimeralso]

7. The GOP better be real careful

The public will find out how much time and money was wasted on the Benghazi issue. Probably more investigation time and hearing than 911.

How much time and investigation went into the 240+ Marines that died in Lebanon?

How many times has the GOP stalled or turned down legislation that would have improved security at embassies and consulates?

Why was a British firm hired to protect the consulate? and where were they?

I think four lives are too many. How many lives were lost in the middle east due to the GOP lies?

Why did we arm Bin Laden? The enemy of your enemy is not always your friend.

Where is the outrage on these questions that not only wasted American lives, but also billions of American dollars?

I can answer that one. Faux and Limpbough have ignored these questions as it does not fit their fairy tale they call news!!!

[groundloop]

8. ^^^^^ STALLED LEGISLATION THAT WOULD IMPROVE SECURITY AT EMBASSIES........ ^^^^^

THAT needs to be exposed repeatedly. IT is the real crime (on top of misuse of taxpayer funds to score political points).

9. Gowdy is too busy polishing Buck's barrel.

[blackspade]

12. What a crock of shit.

There is no Benghazi 'scandal' unless you are talking about the GOP cuts to embassy security over the last 10 years.

What a bunch of douche bags.

[blkmusclmachine]

17. IOKIYAR

[winter is coming]

13. Really? No one could have foreseen that! n/t

[kacekwl]

15. I thought they

already released the republican led Benghazi report. Strange maybe a political decision ?

[quadrature]

18. the new report, difference is, unlimited time for questions

the last time, with Darrel Issa.
each person on the committee
only had so many minutes.


with the Trey Gowdy bunch.
questions will be in a 'discussion format'
no time limit. anything goes.
