Hearing on Security Lapses at the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya Today

Rep. Issa closes in on Clinton - The Hill's Global Affairs
Issa has called four witnesses for the hearing.
Two of them have alleged that the State Department refused requests for more security in Libya, prompting Issa’s probe.
Eric Nordstrom, a regional security officer who left Tripoli about two months before the attack, told the committee that Deputy Assistant Secretary for International Programs Charlene Lamb wanted to keep the number of U.S. security personnel in Benghazi “artificially low,” according to the Democratic memo.
And Lt. Col. Andy Wood, the head of a 16-member special operations team that left Libya in August, said Stevens wanted his team to stay in the country.
The State Department is sending Lamb and Patrick Kennedy, the undersecretary for management, to give its version of events.
Wednesday’s hearing should be well-attended, even with Congress not in session.
Time to see if the coverup damages a Liberal in a Socialist Regime as much as it did in Watergate.

Four died in Libya none in Watergate.
