Needham: Benghazi Questions Relevant If We Want To Hold a Candidate Accountable

NEEDHAM: "Well, look, there was obviously no great historic, made for TV moment that came out of it. But I don’t think that was the goal. Trey Gowdy is a great prosecutor, he’s trying to conduct an investigation, he is trying to get answers to questions, and I think the American people need and deserve if we’re going to have the type of governance that we should have. Why is it that we kept embassy staff in Benghazi when other countries like Britain had pulled them out? And if that reason was valid, why did we ignore 600 requests for additional security? Why is it that Hillary Clinton told her family this was a terrorist attack at the same time she was telling the American people it was caused by a video? She told the father of one of the slain Americans that this was caused by a video. What’s the role of Sidney Blumenthal? What business conflicts did he have with all this information that he is sending in? And ultimately, what role did the fact that all this is going on 56 days before a presidential election, these are reasonable questions. They are questions that the American people deserve to have answers to, and I think are highly relevant if we want to hold the Obama administration, the secretary of state, and a future presidential candidate to the highest values that you would want to have in our government."
