host: all right, congressman schiff. guest: i have to say that watching the benghazi hearings we have had so far has not been very edifying. it has mostly consisted of a lot of grandstanding. the hearings we have had in the intelligence committee have been far more substantive and a focused more on what the intelligence community can tell us now about the hunt for these people. we have done our share of looking at who created the talking points and going through all that. we had a director morell testified many times in closed session and open session will stop but i think they have been far less partisan than some of the open hearings. and that is an indictment of the process when you only have a grandstanding with the cameras are available in closed session, intel committee, is more of a matter-of-fact investigation. and the words of the speaker until recently, another committee of having months and months to cover the same ground we have covered innumerable times? host: on twitter host: what was the role of the former
