Obama challenges Susan Rice's detractors. McCain vows filibuster but doesn't have votes
Excerpt:
Graham's response: Mr. President, dont think for one minute I dont hold you ultimately responsible for Benghazi."
Really Senator Graham! You hold This President responsible for Benghazi. Really?
You never held Bush responsible for leading this country to war with Iraq! A war based on lies and deceit. You and your buddies McCain and Lieberman, you were all cheerleaders of the false evidence of weapons of mass destruction.
"After nine years, America's war in Iraq will be over."
To date, 4,482 Americans have been killed in Iraq.
There have been 32,213 U.S. troops wounded in the Iraq War, a war that, according to a
January 2011 Gallup poll, 66 percent of Americans oppose.
From the beginning of operations through July 31, 2011, the Department of Defense has allocated $704.6 billion for Operation Iraqi Freedom/Operation New Dawn. That comes out to about $3.8 billion per month.
Mr Graham, you oppose Susan Rice, The UN ambassador to the United Nations, that had little to nothing to do with Benghazi! Yet you whole heartily supported this woman.

Both you and Condi, your cheer leading friends, and the rest of the Chicken hawks of the Bush administration perpetuated this lie to the American people. You all caused death of many of our soldiers and Iraqi citizens. You have caused untold grief to so very many family's and friends alike.
You should be ashamed Senator. You should be ashamed!http://www.dailykos.com/story/2012/11/14/1161653/-Obama-challenges-Susan-Rice-s-detractors-McCain-vows-filibuster-but-doesn-t-have-votes-yet

(9,463 posts)all day about how Graham was nowhere to be found on Nov. 14, 2001 shouting for a Watergate-style investigation of September 11. And I've been reminding McCain that he supported the invasion of Iraq based on flawed intel that cost the lives of 4500 troops.

Wow! Watching Condi Rice lie over and over again, and lie again to try to protect her reputation...
Wow, it just evokes such a visceral, gut-level, emotional response in me. I find myself wanting to scream at my computer screen. This makes me livid.
She sent thousands of our countrymen to die. Or, at least, she helped to do it, and so, she is complicit in this war crime. I feel strongly about a lot of Republican Neo-con assholes. Watching this exchange makes me so angry, I just can't tell you. This is evil when it gets caught.
When you boil it down, Condi is a mass murderer. I want to scream at her. I want to find her at some speaking engagement and scream at her like that Code Pink woman with the blood on her hands. Do you not see what you are doing??!! Do you not see what is going on here??!!

I had to do a bit of a rant when I saw all this shit happening when I got home from work! I had been out of the news loop.When I heard about the press conference, what was being said....well i had a gut clenching of anger at there hypocrisy!
I have posted here and made comments in my threads. However this time I could not hold Back. You are correct Condi and the entire Bush administration are mass murderers! They will never be held accountable for there crimes. Meh.Much more could have been said...just to tired to go on!
Thank you!

She lied and people died!
It will be on her head for all of eternity!
May they all roast in hell.
