Back to Benghazi

For John, BLUF:  Who said, it isn't the act, it is the coverup?  Nothing to see here; just move along.

Law Professor Ann Althouse, late last afternoon, noted that US Representative Elijah Cummings, the senior Democrat on the Benghazi investigating committee, twice passed up an opportunity to say there is no there there.  He was being interviewed by Host Bob Schieffer on Face the Nation.

Frankly, unless there is evidence of a coverup of a NASA exploitation of a crashed UFO site in the deserts of Libya, or of US gun running in the Middle East, the only thing left is the abuse of the First Amendment by Department of State, in an effort to deal with certain issues in the Middle East.

I have blogged about this issue before, here in early March, and here in November last, and here in June last, and other places.

Much as some would like this albatross to go away, it apparently won't.  For me it is not just an explanation of going after some obscure videographer for making a video here in the US, but also for someone to say that it was wrong, someone in the Administration.  Wrong and we won't do it again.

If Representative Elijah Cummings, a Democrat, won't say it is done, it is probably not yet done.

Hat tip to Ann Althouse.
