Rep. Tom Cole, a Republican from Oklahoma, says that if lawmakers are going to go after U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice over her initial public assessment of the September attack in Benghazi then maybe Congress should also look at how President George W. Bush pushed bad intelligence about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.
Dan Senor, who worked to spin the Iraq war for the Bush administration as the chief spokesman for the Coalition Provisional Authority (CPA), told a Sunday panel on ABC that Rice deserved to be scrutinized because she was front and center as the voice of the Obama administration after the Benghazi attack.

There is a legitimate concern that she was used five days after the fact to propagate a story that we should have known at the time was not the case, Cole agreed, adding that there were also serious questions about our own intelligence people.
We saw President Bush out front defending something wasnt true too, the Oklahoma Republican recalled. Maybe we should ask those guys some questions too.
