Sen. John McCain, R-AZ, and three colleagues on Wednesday again demanded answers from the Obama administration on the still-cloudy circumstances surrounding the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya.
In a letter signed by McCain, Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-SC, Sen. Kelly Ayotte, R-NH, and Sen. Ron Johnson, R-WI, posted to Graham's website, the senators repeated questions raised in five previous letters to President Barack Obama and other high-ranking officials in the administration.
“You and your senior administration officials have not been forthcoming in providing answers to the many questions that have emerged,” the senators write. “The American people and their representatives in Congress need to understand what you knew about the Benghazi terrorist attack and when you knew it. We also have a right to know what steps you and your administration took — or failed to take — before, during, and after the terrorist attack to protect American lives.”
We, the American people also need to know what the circumstances are in this attack that cost 4 lives. We demand answers, we demand the truth.
I have been reading through the comments all morning and honestly the frustration people feel is just so palpable because we deserve real answers about those four lives. It feels like I am shouting into a void sometimes but I am still drafting another round of emails to send off to the offices involved to keep the pressure on.

How can we trust a government that keeps us in the dark about our own people being killed overseas? Disgraceful.

They were abandoned. Simple as that. We need a full investigation now for the families of those men.

Four Americans are dead because of this disaster. Where is the accountability? Enough with the excuses and release the emails.
