Yes, folks Graham has said that when they don't want to answer the questions they have posed to them they just attack the questioners and feel they have done their duty. Calling Graham, McCain and Ayotte racists proves very little but that is how they try to take care of Benghazi. Here are some thoughts about the Benghazi affair that need some thought.

Some of the words of Graham aimed at those who call him a racist because he has called for Susan Rice to be questioned under oath to find out where she got her information for that fateful Sunday. Graham has said, '“The only color that matters to me is red, the blood of those who were killed,” he continued. “I think it’s a good thing for people of color and women to be appointed to the highest level of our government, because in the past, they couldn’t be. I think it would be a terrible thing in America if you couldn’t question and challenge what they did in their jobs.”

Some words that readers of this post need to see and won't from avoiding reading the link are: The Democrats always want to turn something into something that it is not. In this case they have taken a very serious issue where four men have lost their lives and those from their own party, in some of the most powerful positions in the world, have lied to cover up the reason why they were killed. They then turned on those who are seeking answers and trying to keep one of the people involved in the perpetration of the lie concerning Benghazi from being promoted. It seems in politics the ones that scream the loudest about racism or sexism are the true racists and sexists

Just like lefties on this forum. They can't debate so they smear.

Alinsky.

Wasn't Lindsay Grahm the first lesbian female senator elected?

LG still I see. Some people just can't cope with irrelevancy.

If Graham was so concerned about "red", he'd be calling on Bush Administration officials to be arrested and charged with treason for using false "intelligence" (which they themselves created) to start a war that led to THOUSANDS of deaths.

The worst thing that Rice is guilty of is lying to put a political spin on a terrorist attack. Not nearly grounds for the outrage that so many on the right (who walked in step with the Bush admin on Iraq) feign over this incident.

Do you know how boring, ineffective, and just plain inaccurate your silly little rant is?

Guess not.

Stay focused. If possible. This thread isn't about Bush.

Actually it is, since Lindsey stayed quiet while Bush and company lied to congress and American people about going to war but now is all over democrats for the deaths of just 4 Americans. It appears that the deaths of over 4,000 is insignificant as long as they were under republican leadership but the deaths of 4 is cause to blow things way out of proportion.

And by the way dman's rant is right on target.

BTW, isn't this the same Graham that conservatives nicknamed "Baghdad Bob", and who also provoked a hissy-fit from RWNJ's, for being awarded by La Raza and for calling those who oppose amnesty "a few loud bigots"?

The contentious part is whether
a) the intelligence was screwed up and they just repeated it
b) they cherry picked intelligence to make their case to the world and to the American people
c) they made up all the intelligence, fed it to the CIA, and then said "look, here it is".

There are numerous documented stories that the admin fed to journalists and news agencies, then when the reports came out, they said "look, see, even X news orginazation agrees with us...".

Meanwhile the stories source was the Bush administration in the first place. Richard Clarke was saying that people in the administration where talking about Iraq the day after 9/11 in the White House..they wanted this to be about Iraq because they wanted to "finish the job".

We're still paying for this war and thousands died, so yes, it should be in the press more than it is. Even most of the "liberal media" has completely stopped talking about it.
