McCain Misses Classified Briefing While Blasting White House




Senator John McCain is demanding answers on the Benghazi attack, but his office tells ABC News he missed a classified briefing on the subject because of a "scheduling error."

The classified briefing was held on Wednesday before the Senate Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee - of which Senator McCain is a member - and lasted three hours. It featured testimony by officials from the State Department, the Pentagon, the CIA and the National Counterterrorism Center.

The facts will just get in the way of criticizing the ones you hate!

So much for just wanting to get the facts on the matter. He wants a huge "Watergate-style" investigation into this not because he just wants the facts but because he wants to go after President Obama politically- though what he thinks he is going to find and what he thinks that the WH is covering up continues to elude me.
