On september, 11th, 2012 a terrorist attack in libya left four of our country men dead, including our ambassador. Since that time four committees of the house have been investigating these events and those committees have done great work. All of the chairmen and members of their Respective Committee deserve our graditute. Last week a line was crossed in two places. It came to light that the whitehouse did more to obscure what happened and why versus what we were led to believe. Second, we know the instruction defied a congressional subpoena. We sought the full truth and the administration tried to make sure they would not find it. Which means they tried to prevent the American People from finding the truth as well.
