Republicans are mulling whether to demand former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's return to Capitol Hill to face more tough questions about her agency's failure to protect diplomats and security staff in Benghazi, Libya a year ago. An aide to a high-ranking GOP member of the House Oversight and Government Affairs committee told MailOnline that the committee's chairman, California Rep. Darrell Issa, 'is dead serious' about raking the likely 2016 presidential candidate over the coals in the future. 'Look, it's not like we're getting great answers from the deputies and under secretaries,' the staffer said on Wednesday. 'So eventually you have to climb the ladder and swear Hillary in again.' 'I'm not saying "The fish stinks from the head," or anything like that,' the aide cautioned. 'Just that the committee leaders on our side want answers and they're not going to let up.' Issa told the Fox News Channel on Wednesday morning that his committee won't hesitate to bring back any of the senior-level witnesses who have already testified about the September 11, 2012 terror attack on American diplomatic facilities in the eastern Libya port city. And that includes Hillary Clinton. 'We can certainly have Mrs. Clinton back,' Issa told Fox. 'We want to be respectful of her time, so getting to the facts – including people below her – first is critical.' An oversight committee spokesperson declined to comment on the record about how likely it was that Issa could actually call Clinton as a witness again. But as the 2016 presidential election draws nearer, the knives may come out in earnest.
