Democrats on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee essentially spit on the graves of the four Americans killed during the terror attacks in Benghazi, Libya when they refused to listen to the testimony of surviving family members of those slain and walked out of the hearing before these Americans were able to tell their stories.
Note the empty side of the room where the Democrats were sitting.
The hearing was held on September 19 on Capitol Hill.
Committee member Darrell Issa was incensed enough to Tweet about it as soon as it occurred:

NEVER Forget These Victims of Obama’s Failure
Disgusting behavior by these hateful Democrats.
One of those that testified was the mother of one of those slain. You’ll remember Pat Smith, mother of Sean Smith who lost his life due to Obama and Hillary’s negligence.
You might remember her from earlier media appearances…
We know that Hillary Clinton, the then Sec. of State during the attacks, is planning on running for president. If so let’s hope she’ll finally be held to account for her massive, murderous failures and lies during Benghazi.
Here is the hearing today…
