Years ago during the Iran-Contra Hearings I read an article commenting on the Hearings. It was not Mega-Media in origin.

The article in a nutshell stated the hearings would be little better than the Soviet Show Trials of the 1930's and 40's. The Hearings would be carefully stage managed for public consumption to demonstrate the "System" works.

I would expect the same here. The justification for the over throw of Muammar Gaddafi and the forces from the West and Puppet Governments in the Gulf that brought about the anarchy in Libya will be ignored. (Just one more Good War, that went bad.)

Will the CIA involvement in this new version of Fast Furious in Benghazi be questioned and the part our State Department played in it? The answer is no. The Hearing will be a "fight" between the Obama-Clinton camp and those attacking it. FOX News will lead the fight in the Media against Obama-Clinton, and MSNBC will be the defending Mega-Media outlet.

The fact is the USA and it's Wall Street-Security-Military-Industrial Complex has engaged in aggressive Wars all over the Planet since 1945.

you're missing the point. The committee's job is simply to keep "investigating" until just before the 2016 election. Actually finding anything is pretty irrelevant. Meanwhile, you appoint every semi-moderate Republican you can find to the committee in fond hopes of building their "street creeds" among the right wing of the base. Heck, even speculating that there might be something there to find, whether it's found or not, is perfectly fine.

That Mrs. David Brooks could not find problems or even questions of propriety with Lawrence Mayor Tom Schneider's water company deal shouts volumes to those of us in the know or who had business in Lawrence during Mr. Schneider's tenure and does not bode well for the outcome of the "select committee". Every item in this news report is spot on, Gary. The barrel cannot be held over the truth forever on any or all of the aspects reported in this blog post.
