Conscientious Objector

Cindy Sheehan on Senator Bernie Sanders:
Politician Senator Sanders uses Benghazi
The Senator said:
"The Select Committee on Benghazi made Hillary Clinton look tough and cool under pressure during that circus yesterday. Rep. Gowdy has helped Clinton's presidential campaign greatly, and I request the committee send me a subpoena to testify in front of it as soon as possible," stated Senator Sanders, who questioned whether the Benghazi Select Committee was "a Clinton super PAC, or something."
***The GOP Benghazi nonsense meant to challenge your election?
Senator Sanders is not off the radar of the Bengazi investigation.
Trey Gowdy:
"Senator Sanders itinerary shows it is possible he was in North Africa at the time."
“Where was Sanders when the Benghazi attacks began?”
The committee vows to get to the bottom of these and other questions, “even if it takes a year to thirteen months to resolve.”
