Showing Original Post only (View all)Fuck it, have Rice resign, and take full responsibility for Benghazi, defang this [View all]
Benghazi thing before it even gets started. That will take the wind out of the sails of the republicans who are trying to make hay already over this.
Take this off the table, and the GOP will be flailing at rainbows, and befuddled that their toy was taken away from them. The republicans are trying to make a mountain out of this, and might as well put it to bed with a surprise pre-emptive strike by having Susan Rice take responsibility and resigning.
What say you?

You do not give in on truth telling. Rice stays. McCain, Graham and the FNC need a comeuppance.
