| No Word from SecState During Benghazi Attack |
| 2013-02-08 |
| Neither the Secretary of Defense nor the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff spoke to the secretary of state during the 8-hour attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya on September 11, 2012. At a Thursday hearing in the Senate, Republican Ted Cruz asked both Leon Panetta and Martin Dempsey, "In between 9:42 p.m., Benghazi time, when the first attacks started, and 5:15 am, when Mr. Doherty and Mr. Woods lost their lives, what conversations did either of you have with Secretary Clinton?" "We did not have any conversations with Secretary Clinton," Panetta responded. "And General Dempsey, the same is true for you?" Cruz asked. Dempsey confirmed this. |

| #10 Since nobody was home, I would like Gen. Ham called to testify and, for the record, tell us who told him to stand down. And just where are all the survivors ( and family members)? Is it possible that Bambi has all of them locked up in 'protective custody'? I cannot beleive not one individual has contacted any news organization ( even FOX) to tell them that 'all at once, Little Johnny and his Mom were called away. His Dad works for State...." this cover up is even bigger than F & F. |

| #3 Indeed KBK, my apologies. What was I thinking. Frankly, I've always had a difficult time distinguishing cheap, political theater from reality. |

| #2 Oh, come on, Besoeker, what do you think this is, a Congressional hearing? |

| #1 Then whom did you have conversations with? General Petreaus? Tom Donlon? Give us a name and tell us about the conversation. |
