House issues four subpoenas in Benghazi hearings to State Department employees who ‘possess direct knowledge of the event’
House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa has issued subpoenas for four current and former State Department officials to find out what they know about the fatal terrorist attacks on the U.S. mission in Benghazi.

Issa, in a letter to Secretary of State John Kerry, said he has been unable to arrange interviews with the four officials, who Issa said, “possess direct knowledge of the event.”
“These persistent delays create the appearance that the Department is dragging its feet to slow down the Committee’s investigation,” Issa wrote in the letter to Kerry. “It does not require weeks of preparation to answer questions truthfully. These delays also take us further in time away from the dates of the events in question.”
House and Senate Republicans have been pushing the Obama Administration for additional information on the attacks and the lack of security in Benghazi as well as the decision not to launch a rescue mission during the attacks.
Issa has issued subpoenas for Eric Boswell, the former Assistant Secretary for the Bureau of Diplomatic Security, Scott Bultrowicz, the former Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary and Director of the Diplomatic Security Service, Elizabeth Dibble, the former Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary, Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs and Elizabeth Jones, the acting Assistant Secretary, Bureau Near Eastern Affairs.
Issa claims congressional investigators sent the administration a list of 13 State Department officials they wish to interview nearly two months ago, but have only been given access to one official

I don’t know why congress continues questioning these low-life bastards while refusing to prosecute those who have already admitted to lying under oath.
Because Bainer is either a pussy or, more likely he’s being paid off. Obama should both be tried and convicted for treason for this and other criminal activities
Obama and Hillary. Pardon the typo.
Yawn. Maybe they’ll get to the bottom of this as fast as they did with TWA Flight 800.
