This is one of the most outrageous and slanderous things I've heard an elected representative say in a long time. Who is responsible for terrorist acts? The terrorists are ultimately responsible for terrorist acts.
Prez Obama and all Democrats need to come down on Lindsey Graham like a ton of bricks for this. By the time we're done, Graham ought to be politically destroyed.

Sen. Graham Responds To Obama: I Hold You Ultimately Responsible For Benghazi
Sen. Lindsey Graham released the following statement in response to President Obama's press conference comments on Republican criticism of U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice:
Mr. President, dont think for one minute I dont hold you ultimately responsible for Benghazi. I think you failed as Commander in Chief before, during, and after the attack.
We owe it to the American people and the victims of this attack to have full, fair hearings and accountability be assigned where appropriate. Given what I know now, I have no intention of promoting anyone who is up to their eyeballs in the Benghazi debacle.

(8,571 posts)On one hand he says "we owe it to the American people and the victims of this attack to have full, fair hearings and accountability be assigned where appropriate" and yet on the other is ready without "full, fair hearings" to lay the blame at the Presidents feet.
Fuck that pure political hot air.
