VIDEO here: http://www.mediaite.com/tv/jon-stewart-destroys-mccain-for-hagel-benghazi-outrage-and-iraq-you-dont-get-to-pull-that-sht/
Jon Stewart tonight took on Republican senators Lindsay Graham and John McCain for their hyped-up outrage over Benghazi that led both to support holding up Chuck Hagels nomination for Defense Secretary in order to get answers. Stewart tore into McCain specifically for having the hubris to demand answers for Benghazi when he did no such thing regarding the Iraq war and his motivations for blocking Hagel were not exactly free of personal bias. -snip-

(51,646 posts)6. Exactly. Could you imagine if 9/11 happened under Gore?
The Repukes would still be holding hearings about it and would have impeached Gore for ignoring warning memos. But under Gore, we would not have been lied into the Iraq War. Speaking of which...where are the hearings on THAT disaster? The Repukes are up in arms about 4 Americans killed in Benghazi. What about the 4, 000 killed in Iraq for NO GOOD REASON?
