Hillary Clinton will not testify in front of the Congress on Benghazi because she will be out of the country First we learned the news that General Petraeus abruptly resigned just one week before he was scheduled to testify in front of the Congress on the Benghazi terrorist attack and now we are learning that another key witness will not be testifying either. Much like General Petraeus’s announcement conveniently benefited the Obama regime and helped to aid the Benghazi cover up, so to does the news that Hillary Clinton will be unavailable to testify to the Congress next week because she will be out of the country. Isn’t it funny how the General Petraeus news broke so shortly before the hearing and isn’t it just as funny how Hillary Clinton’s schedule will conveniently not permit her to testify either? Two of the most important figures in this scandal will not be testifying and I think we all know why that is, don’t we? It is clear to me that the cover up is still ongoing and nobody of any import is going to testify willingly so it appears as if it will be up to the Congress to issue subpoenas in an attempt to make the most transparent administration in United States history come clean.
changeling 11-Nov-12, 06:33	stinky How long ago was Clinton's scheduled departure for overseas put in place, before congress decided to investigate or after a date was set? Is 'testify' even the right word, or is it spoken explanation. Can congress order someone to testify anyway, and to what end?
changeling 11-Nov-12, 06:40	Petraeus It appears this has been going on since last October at least! "Convenient resignation"! I guess this was all thought out and 'conspired' as early as last year then?
anomalocaris 11-Nov-12, 06:49	So its not convenient then? Something this big comes up and then oh sorry im not working here anymore. Only a fool would look at that and say, gosh that was NOT convenient. What is it then, lucky? Just one of those honest things that happens in government during a possible scandal? Change do you give your own government this much credit?
anomalocaris 11-Nov-12, 06:51	This.... Is 'testify' even the right word, or is it spoken explanation. Can congress order someone to testify anyway, and to what end? This is the question and the answer is...its all for show anyway to satisfy the families of the dead men and some Americans. IT will be to no end at all.
changeling 11-Nov-12, 06:53	stink I would tend to agree with that.
changeling 11-Nov-12, 06:54	But going back I meant to post this: www.brisbanetimes.com.au True or not?
anomalocaris 11-Nov-12, 07:08	All I know is that its in the news. True or not...who knows. I still have doubts Bin Laden is dead.
changeling 11-Nov-12, 07:12	........... ................
softaire 11-Nov-12, 07:31	The official story, right now, is that General Petraeus is resigning because of his affair. There are all sorts of reasons why he should resign, if this is true. The question is why is he really resigning and is it true or not? And, that is only a question because everybody wants to know all about Benghazi. Why the stupid video story? Why was security reduced before the attacks? Why was help not dispatched in a timely manner? Why were pleas for help ignored, both before and after the attack? Now that Hillary Clinton will be out of the country, it further fuels speculation of a cover-up. They may evade testimony this time, but I have a feeling that they will get subpoenaed sooner or later. (It took about two years to get to Nixon. It may be even longer this time)
changeling 11-Nov-12, 07:42	Still plying conspiracy theories and cover up softy?
softaire 11-Nov-12, 07:51	Yes I am. And, I will be until we get answers. You aren't? You know the answers to any of those questions? Do you even have any possible explanations for these questions? Another question is why haven't heard any answers or explanations from our government?
chaz- 11-Nov-12, 08:01	... when was Hillary's convenient trip abroad so planned? If this trip is so important (and it indeed could be), then couldn't her testimony just be postponed? While Patreus' announcement was coincidentally post election, it's also a time that he could have personally chosen ... so his personal affairs did not conflict with more important election issues on one hand, yet soon enough so he could control the message first (something he's quite well known for).
changeling 11-Nov-12, 13:16	Watching (live) right now news on television about the Petraeus affair. It seems that the F.B.I. have confirmed that the affair did indeed take place, there was no hacking of his email accounts. It appears that he has 'fallen on his own sword'. This has been coming since well before the Benghazi debacle. softy you are watching the wrong news feeds.
softaire 11-Nov-12, 21:41	change What the H are you talking about? I have asked some relevant questions. I would like some appropriate answers from the government that should have those answers and the government that supposedly works for me. Are you saying that a government should not be accountable to its' citizens? It's ok with you if your government hides the truth from you?
changeling 11-Nov-12, 21:49	softy "...The official story, right now, is that General Petraeus is resigning because of his affair. There are all sorts of reasons why he should resign, if this is true. The question is why is he really resigning and is it true or not?..." My post is in answer to that. Also: fox news and abc news both reported over here this morning (our time) that spokesmen/persons from both the Republican Party and the Democrat Party agree that Petraeus' resignation was both warranted and timely.
changeling 11-Nov-12, 21:52	I should add over the 'affair' question. Both parties also indicated that he was an exemplary leader both in the military (saving countless lives with his leadership) and in the C.I.A. I would think if he was involved in any conspiracy of the Benghazi debacle the Republicans would be screaming for satisfaction, that does't seem to be the case if reports this morning are correct.
