Benghazi Hearing: Your Government at Work
May 8, 2013 12:00pm
This is the strangest thing …
As today’s big Benghazi hearing gets underway, Republicans are saying Ambassador Thomas Pickering – the co-chairman of the State Department’s committee investigating of the Benghazi attack – has refused to testify today.
The State Department says the opposite is true – that Pickering wanted to testify but Republicans would not let him.
“Ambassador Pickering volunteered to appear,” a State Department official tells ABC News. “But [Government Oversight and Reform Committee Chairman Darrell] Issa said no.”
“That is 100 percent untrue,” says Issa spokesman Frederick Hill.

In fact, Hill has released letters dated February 22 inviting Pickering (read them here), and the other co-chairman of the investigation, former Joint Chiefs Chair retired Adm. Michael Mullen, to testify at today’s hearing.
“Ambassador Pickering initially told the Committee he was not available on that date,” Hill tells ABC News. “When asked about a different date, he said he was not inclined to testify.”

Hearing Problem Affecting Work?Apr 10, 2015
Over the past couple of years I have had slight decreased hearing and also difficulty understanding words dictated when QA says they are perfectly clear to them. The last one told me to get a better headset, but I can't afford it. I was told by a person who used to do QA that when they listen, they have it on a different system that provides better sound quality. I'm not sure if it's my ears or the system. These are words I know, I just can't understan ...

Hearing Loss....smJun 24, 2012
After more than 40 years of MT'ing, I have lost 80% hearing in left ear and 10% in right ear. This, according to doc, is definitely due to constant sound assault on my ears for all of these years. I now need dual hearing aids; the left ear to compensate for severe hearing loss and the right ear to prevent hearing loss. I will be getting them within the next week. My real concern is whether I will be able to wear either my in-the-ear headset or over-the-head head ...

Let's Get Back To Benghazi. Sandy Was A Storm.Oct 30, 2012
As I predicted, Obama (and his sycophants) would LOVE Sandy because it would take Benghazi off the front page. However newsworthy Sandy might be, it has relatively little relevance to anyone's decision with respect to the coming elections. Anyone can collect food, and anyone can fly around in Air Force One looking like the big cheese after a natural disaster. These things mean absolutely nothing. The Benghazi scandal, on the other hand, is a thumbnail sketch of the genera ...
