CIA judgement that the Benghazi attacks that killed four Americans had been a reaction to an anti-Muslim video.
"The Republican freakout over Benghazi has been shameful, and their insane scapegoating of Rice's appearances on the Sunday chat shows a week after the attacks has been doubly so," Mother Jones' Kevin Drum wrote on Tuesday. "Republicans—aided and abetted at times by reports in the mainstream media—decided to pretend that Rice had blamed the Benghazi attack entirely on a YouTube video, which they took as dark evidence of a coverup designed to protect Obama. But the truth is that Rice flatly did nothing wrong, a point that bears repeating. She did nothing wrong."
"Graham and the rest of the Republican caucus appear to still be in election season attack dog mode, and it's time for this to stop."
