let's get a closer look at a few more incidents:
Why has Bengazi and the events there gotten more investigation than the following:
1.Iran/Contra
2.Katrina
3.the Iranian hostage crisis
4. the attack on the Marines in Beiruit
5. where Bill Clinton put his ceegars


in my lifetime, only Watergate saw more scrutiny than the GOP wishes to put on this piece of historical trivia.

I reject the premise that the situation in Bengahzi has been more investigated than those others.

Maybe you should ask yourself: Self, why am I so much more sensitive to the investigations into Bengahzi than these other problems?'

The honest answer to that bit of introspective auditing would reveal much for you!

really? One administration investigation, two House committees, one Senate committe, and the still-to-come Select Committee?

I'm sensitive, if you wish to use that word, to the politicization of foreign policy by the GOP of late.

already done it, came up with the above. Of course, you will reject it, because your handlers wish you to focus on Bengazi instead of income disparity, immigration law, tax reform, job creation, sensible foreign policy, infrastructure rebuilding or other legitimate concerns. The disconnect between 'importance' of Bengazi and those things I just named is startling, depressing and telling.

Perhaps slick, if your champion in the White House stuck to his promise of more transparency, we wouldn't need to drag these things out:


“The Obama administration has lost or destroyed e-mails for more than 20 witnesses, and in each case, the loss wasn’t disclosed to the National Archives or Congress for months or years, in violation of federal law,” House Oversight and Government Reform Committee chairman Darrell Issa (R., Calif.) said of Tavenner’s lost e-mails.
