How would you feel if it was your loved one killed and when you asked your elected representatives about it, they just walked out on you? I think you'd be singing a different tune.

How many time do the stupid people have to bring up things and incident that has been heard on forever ,they will be litigating this til the cows come or the chicken come home to roost. As the Republicans and Tea party say that has happen, so why keep beating a dead horse( no harm intended) that what they say about the poor and minority. I think did what was necessary to let those D*cks talk to themselves.

Walking out on people who just want to know why and how their family members were killed. How typically Democrat. Covering up 4 horrific murders so their boss man doesn't get in trouble. You can't hardly get any lower than that. What despicable wastes of human flesh. And they get away with it because the majority of the country are now low-information voters who don't even follow this stuff or have any interest in it or what goes on in the w... [ More ]

Walk of Shame - List of Names

Carol Platt Liebau | Sep 20, 2013

As Katie reportedyesterday, every Democrat attending the House Oversight and Government Reform hearing today on Benghazi -- except for Elijah Cummings and Jackie Spier -- left the hearing room without offering the victims' families the courtesy even of hearing their testimony.

What shoddy disgraces.

So who were these people? Chairman Issa's spokesman reported that fourteen Democrats attended the first part of the hearing. There are 18 Democrats on the committee. That means that 4 didn't attend any of the hearing, and 12 others walked out.

Below is a list of the congressmen whose staffs confirmed they attended yesterday's hearing. These are people who evidently walked out without waiting to hear from the families of those murdered in Benghazi:

Rep. Carolyn B. Maloney, New York (Contact) Rep. Eleanor Holmes Norton, District of Columbia (Contact) Rep. Stephen F. Lynch, Massachusetts (Contact) Rep. Gerald E. Connolly, Virginia (Contact) Rep. Mark Pocan, Wisconsin (Contact) Rep. Tammy Duckworth, Illinois*** (Contact) Rep. Danny K. Davis, Illinois (Contact) Rep. Tony Cardenas, California (Contact) Rep. Michelle Lujan Grisham, New Mexico (Contact)

** Congresswoman Tammy Duckworth should, in my view, be particularly ashamed, as she is a veteran of the Iraq war, a former assistant Secretary of Veterans Affairs, and a former Director of the Illinois Department of Veterans Affairs.

The following offices either couldn't or wouldn't provide an answer about the simple whereabouts of congressmen yesterday -- so they may or may not have been at the hearing:

Rep. John F. Tierney, Massachusetts. (This office wins the dubious distinction of having the rudest staff) (Contact) Rep. Wm. Lacy Clay, Missouri (This office had yet to open at 9:30 this morning) (Contact) Rep. Matt Cartwright, Pennsylvannia (Contact) Rep. Peter Welch, Vermont (Contact) Rep. Steven Horsford, Nevada (Contact)

Finally, these two offices noted that the congressmen hadn't attended any of yesterday's hearing.

Rep. Jim Cooper, Tennessee Rep. Robin Kelly, Illinois
