There was a CIA gun running operation there? Gasp! Surprise! There wasn't a secret CIA operation being run there; There was a dozen secret CIA operations being run there.
This is a huge part of the problem with American politics - We had eight or nine investigations into Benhazi when we already knew what happened and already knew there was nothing we could have done differently, but now we are faced with what might just be the worst crime in American history and the Republicans are either ignoring it or try to stop any investigation. One is a witch hunt, the other is a mis-carriage of justice.
