VIDEO here: http://www.mediaite.com/tv/msnbcs-jonathan-alter-on-benghazi-hearing-how-can-you-cover-up-nothing/
As Republicans predict that Wednesdays hearing of the House Oversight Committee on the September 11, 2012 attacks in Benghazi, Libya will be President Obamas undoing, MSNBC contributor Jonathan Alter expressed skepticism about that notion. On Tuesday afternoons Martin Bashir program, Alter responded to the upcoming hearing by calling it kind of disgusting, and asked host Martin Bashir, rhetorically, How can you cover up nothing?

By screaming as loudly as possible and often until the facts change.

to do a thorough investigation of these sorts, especially when American lives were lost, but can we please move on? There is nothing more here to talk about! I find it funny that Republicans want more answers and more hearings when McCain and Paul didn't find it important enough to show up to Benghazi hearings last fall. What a joke.

Another redundant hearing in the endless search for the "TRUTH"!

neither was Fast and Furious. They are both things that should be investigated, but the GOP has no credibility on either. They are exploiting them rather than investigating them.
