Liberals have seized on a new AP report about the Benghazi terrorist attack:
Now that's what I call a Friday news dump. http://t.co/Ln5QzZum81 pic.twitter.com/ieeIGxukNo

While most normal Americans were enjoying their weekends, liberals were tweeting about Benghazi, apparently without bothering to read the actual report. But either way, why are liberals obsessing over something that happened more than two years ago?
Well, look what Republicans put out in trash late yesterday… http://t.co/nCEp5HyjHt — Taegan Goddard (@politicalwire) November 22, 2014
Benghazi Is Over, But the Mainstream Media Just Yawns http://t.co/JIbRrjYvgR — Kevin Drum (@kdrum) November 23, 2014
Breitbart dopes double down on #benghazi. When you lie for a living what choice do you have? http://t.co/P0iwILjP2A — Eric Boehlert (@EricBoehlert) November 23, 2014
This poor Media Matters intern, for example, was writing about Benghazi at 9 p.m. on a Friday. That sounds like something a "nerd virgin" might do. The American people, however, have already moved on. If liberals continue to be outraged over the years-old controversy, they run the risk of overreaching. Sure enough, left-wing tweeters couldn't find anything better to talk about on Monday.
NEWSFLASH: Confused, stupid, and defiant, the Republicans have decided to propose a bill which would repeal Benghazi. #dumfux — Think Gooder (@StillJohnCA) November 24, 2014
Benghazi conspiracies represent a vile chapter in American politics, built on hypocrisy and cynical Fox News ethics. http://t.co/nuPpKC47QK

With Hagel's departure, the #Benghazi plot thickens, reaches a boiling point, and is about to break wide open.

It's time for liberals to drop their Benghazi obsession. At this point, it has become a convenient distraction from issues that really matter, such as the resignation (firing) of Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel, and the extension (failure) of Iranian nuclear negotiations.
Just because a bunch of left-wing nerd virgins won't stop talking about Benghazi don't make it an actual scandal. Give it up already.
