Prosecutor makes an ideal person to lead this panel. In accepting his appointment released the following statement which reads in part 20 month after benghazi attacks they remain unsolved, unsolved questions about why the security was inadequate, our response during the siege itself. A fact that has been lost on the white house in the months stonewalling investigations and in some instances blurring or ignoring the facts. Heres White House Press secretary jay carney today refusing to answer simple question about the president s whereabouts during the benghazi terrorist attack. But i can tell you is the president was briefed regularly by his Senior National Security Team as events were unfolding. As you may recall he was first alerted to the attack in the oval office. He wanted every effort expended to do everything we can to assist in the situation in benghazi makes the diplomats were secure around the globe. Lou a simple question, convoluted answer.

President for our country. The future of our democracy is at stake. Many of us cant imagine four more years going down this path.

Thank you. Thank you
