why is it that the right investigated benghazi more than they did iraq and 9/11? this is nothing more than using up the clock. the best way to save money in this pathetic country is to defund congress. right now they are literally a waste of tax payers dollars.

well as far as 9/11 there was a great deal of investigation including the 9/11 report by the special commision, I don't disagree that conservatives have focused a great deal of attention to this matter, but I'd like to keep the discussion focused, if possible, on why the administration lied not why are republicans focusing on it.  If you are a left leaning person I'd like to hear your thoughts on why the admnistration lied.

Actually, there was very very little investigation.  And we will never know what the dude sitting in the White House said:

"Tuesday 27 April 2004

    Washington (Reuters) - The White House said on Tuesday it would not allow any recordings or transcripts of private testimony this week by President Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney to the panel investigating the Sept. 11 attacks" http://archive.truthout.org/article/iron-curtain-secrecy-cheney-leads-bush-911-hearing

A court WITHOUT transcrips?  If you go to small claims there are transcrips- and they become public record.  Why is that more imporant than a huge natual security failure that killed close to 3000 people? Please explain why aren't you concered about that?

Even if they aren't released for the 60 years or so they have for sensitive doucments, they should be public records.


I believe government officials of both parties should be held accountable for their actions, don't you?

I just can't take you seriously.  You are comparing a grape to 10,000 oranges.  It is insincere.

It's like the person trying to compair this to Watergate!  Do they even have  clue to what Watergate was, abously not.

I don't mean to offend you, but your actions seem like an excellent example the worst part of US policies, blind partisanship.  As I and others have pointed out, you bias is not only showing, but has a spotlight and a Good Year Blimp in LED and 20,000 dancing sparkly outfitted cheerleaders.

But remember, the more you yell and hide, the more seriously people will take you.  If you want to just hate on Obama, it's a free county.  But let's not make up things.

I'm sorry but your comment is out of line.  My question was simply why did the administration lie? They didn't need to.  Even the liberal press is stating this question now, and its a fairly simple question.  

And why you brought up watergate I have no idea, but wire tapping is a big deal and it was very appropriate for the administration to be investigated.  The end of your statement just doesn't make any sense so lets just leave it at you are ok when liberals lie but conservatives is a no go.
