Well, then your post becomes even more inexplicable. You not only don't know what a "witch-hunt" is, you appear to respond to posts in a manner indistinguishable from Tourette's Syndrome.

No. They're not those either.

Seriously? Look at the responses on all the Benghazi threads, and try to find a hint that anybody would have changed their vote because of what happened in Benghazi. The Obama supporters still support him even after the story was corrected, and the Obama haters still hated him even before it was corrected. As far as an event with electoral consequences, Benghazi was no more significant than who won the Little League World Series.
The truth should always be an issue especially where struggle for politital power never wanes.

As for Benghazi...the investigation is not over and the story was NOT corrected.
You are right - Obama supporters did support him, and still do, because they don't know much about anything beyond their own noses.

Their mindset: "Ignorance is bliss. Let's keep it that way..."

Ignorance is bliss to most- We have some politicians who recently stole a billion bucks...and no one wants to fact the fact that the tax payer is just a little more enslaved then they were yesterday...Let the Obamamites go back to the comfort and pleasure of their sleep.

A fake controversy should never be mistaken for an effort to achieve truth.

That is the desperate right-wing assertion yes. The vast majority of people who are not Obama haters appear to believe otherwise.

What really bothers me is that there really is no new information that was not known back then.

But all the sudden now news outlets are aghast. ABC was breathless when they replayed Susan Rice's comments juxtoposed to the Libyan Presidents... but both of those comments were ON ABC AIR last year!

why werent they asking these questions last year?

The answer for last year is they didnt want Obama hurt by it. But now what? What is the goal now? This is the question I have.

Why now? what changed? we know full well ABC/NBC/CBS/CNN et al are NOT going after Obama. We know they have no interest in a political takedown of one of thier own.

So what has changed that is causing this interest?

Bengazi is a sham. Our people who were employeed by the US Gov. died there and it was covered up. In this day and age no one could make a real time phone call? Ah what's going on? We are under attack! OK The blackhawk is on route loaded with marines with GUNS ! Cool we will hunker down until they get here. That's what should have happened.
If we are going to have our people in dangerous areas of the world than we need to protect them. The whole Obama administration needs to stop campaigning and start governing and making decisions that are useful and decisions that they will actually stand behind.
What difference does it make? Dead Americans on your watch Hillary. If she runs for Pres. in 2016 I hope they hammer her with it.
If this happened under a REp. presidents watch there would be blood and cries of impeachment. The cover up is treason.

Obama and Hillary Clinton have tampered with evidence. Hillary Clinton lied under oath. Impeachment and prison...

A funny little thing called an "election" was coming up. And it wouldn't look good to Obama, who had declared that Al Quaeda was on the run.
