Issa Releases Documents That Endangers Libyans Working With The US

So will he have hearings on this and hold himself in as much contempt as I hold for him?

“The documents relate to the Sept. 11 attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, which killed Ambassador Christopher Stevens and four others. Administration officials, speaking with Foreign Policy magazine, accused Issa of endangering the safety of Libyans working with the U.S. government, whose names were not redacted from the report:

Much like WikiLeaks, when you dump a bunch of documents into the ether, there are a lot of unintended consequences," an administration official told The Cable Friday afternoon. "This does damage to the individuals because they are named, danger to security cooperation because these are militias and groups that we work with and that is now well known, and danger to the investigation, because these people could help us down the road.

The Benghazi attack has become the subject of intense Republican scrutiny over the past month. The administration's initial statements suggested it was triggered by a protest against the anti-Islam film "The Innocence of Muslims" at the consulate's gates -- when later reports said no such protest occurred. (Contemporaneous CIA documents do, however, point in that direction, according to the Washington Post's David Ignatius.) The State Department has also received significant blowback after reports surfaced suggesting that it had turned down requests from the American mission in Benghazi for additional security.

While the Romney campaign has seized on the attack, and the administration's response, as evidence of President Barack Obama's foreign policy weaknesses, Issa has launched his own investigation, and convened a hearing on the matter last week.”…cont///

Obama better be ready for a barrage of rapid fire lies. They only have to be plausible to the uninformed. If I was Obama I think I would just tell Biden, "I quit, she's all your's baby."

in foreign policy/military matters.


Those are things no one but the President handles, no business executive and no Governor. The closest would be Secretary of State, but she's not running.


When challenged on foreign policy, all Mitt's people could offer was Mitt's business trips. The fact that they even thing business trips are comparable to foreign policy shows they are nuts.

And then there was his triumphant European tour, kicked off by racist remarks from his campaign guy, quickly followed by Mitt's personally pissing off every Brit in the country.

If Obama can't win this one, I give up.
