Sen. Graham: Obama Told Me to 'Take a Hike' on Benghazi
.....................................
when Graham, who is on the Armed Services and Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs committees, approached Obama, asking him for more access, he says he was told to "take a hike."
"I'm not trying to impede a criminal investigation. I'm not looking to figure out who to blame or who to prosecute. I want to hear from the survivors," Graham said.
"Can you imagine what former Sens. Hillary Clinton and Obama would be saying if this were the Bush administration denying access to the witnesses? There would be a riot in the street."
Graham thinks the details surrounding the Benghazi attack were swept under the carpet because the presidential election was just weeks away.

(3,335 posts)apple and came up short. This is just another attempt to keep the subject open and continue damaging this administration. When Graham leads an investigation into the failures of the Bush Administration, then he can garner some sympathy from me. Until then, I have nothing but contempt for this man and his grandstanding. The Repugs have politicized everything for this administration while rubberstamping everything the previous administration did, while questioning Dems patriotism if they did have questions. Yes four people died, but we live in a dangerous world, and hearings have been held adnauseum. Shit happens in the real world. Everything is not a coverup or a crime. The Repugs are always just one subpoena away from the truth and it's time that they got down to the business of governing and cut when the 24/7 investigation and obstruction because they can't accept the fact that THEY LOST. I've watched their hearings an none of them came across as a search for the truth. Not Benghazi, not the IRS, not the Obamacare Website. These hearing are simply a platform to embarass and inflict damage on the current administration. They are not a search for truth, because the Repugs can't handle the truth.

Or tells us what country Benghazi is in?
Or tell us the capitol of that country.
Or even tell us which continent it is part of.

(21,475 posts)How about Congressional subpoenas issued to Rove, Mayers, and several others in the Administration that were totally ignored. Riots everywhere..oh wait there weren't any.. Bush*/Cheney felt they were above the Law and as it turned they really were. They ignored all subpoenas and in fact Bush* would not even testify on 9-11 without Cheney being at his side.
