GOP Softens on Susan Rice as Next Sec. of State, But ‘There Will Be a Lot of Questions’

Republican Opposition to Susan Rice as Sec. of State Begins to Crack | McCain, Graham

(TheBlaze/AP) — Republican opposition to U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice as the next secretary of state began to crack Sunday as Sen. John McCain said she was “not the problem” in the White House’s handling of the Sept. 11 attack in Libya and suggested he could be persuaded to swing behind her possible nomination.

McCain’s comments provide an opening for the Obama administration, which struggled mightily in the weeks leading up to the Nov. 6 election to tamp down speculation of a cover-up involving the attack against the U.S. diplomatic post in Benghazi. The assault killed four Americans, including the U.S. ambassador to Libya.

At issue is Rice’s account – as the administration’s representative on the Sunday talk shows Sept. 16 – that the violence was the spontaneous result of a mob angered by an anti-Muslim video posted on YouTube. She said she relied on talking points provided by the intelligence community that were later discredited.

“I think she deserves the ability and the opportunity to explain herself and her position,” McCain, R-Ariz., told “Fox News Sunday.” “But she’s not the problem. The problem is the president of the United States” who misled the public on terrorist involvement.

McCain’s remarks were in contrast to his previous stance that Rice wasn’t qualified to replace Hillary Rodham Clinton, who is expected to step down soon as the top U.S. diplomat, and that he would do “whatever is necessary” to block Rice’s possible nomination.

Here is video of McCain’s remarks, via Mediaite:

Rice is widely seen as Obama’s first choice for the job as secretary of State. As the top Republican on the Senate Armed Services Committee, McCain would have considerable sway in the Senate’s screening of Rice.

Sen. Lindsey Graham, McCain’s close friend and colleague on the committee, told ABC “This Week” he still suspects the White House intentionally glossed over obvious terrorist links in the attack to keep voters from questioning Obama’s handling of national security.

But instead of repeating his prior assertion that he was “dead set” against a Rice promotion, Graham suggested he looked forward to hearing her out. But if Rice is nominated, he assured, “there will be a lot of questions asked of her about this event and others.”

Here is video of Graham’s explanation, via ABC (skip to around 9 minutes):

The subtle shift in GOP tenor on Rice could be the result of internal grumblings on how far to take party opposition. Democrats picked up extra seats in the election to maintain their narrow majority, making it that much harder for the remaining 45 Republicans to block the president’s nominees.

One senior GOP Senate aide said Sunday that Republicans hadn’t united against Rice and were not convinced that she was worth going after.

“There’s a definite sense within the caucus that you have to be conservative about where you put your firepower,” said the aide, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the official was not authorized to speak publicly on internal GOP deliberations. “The question is whether the caucus is prepared to filibuster her, and I’m not sure we were.”

Intelligence officials have said they knew immediately that the Sept. 11 incident was a terrorist attack and suspected that the local al-Qaida branch was involved. But they also initially believed that the attack may have grown spontaneously from a protest against a YouTube video.

Unclassified talking points provided to Rice and other administration officials in the days following the attack omitted references to terrorists and al-Qaida because intelligence officials said the information was tenuous and could tip their hand in the investigation. The administration also didn’t want to prejudice a criminal investigation.

Rice said she used those talking points in five Sept. 16 interviews in defending the administration’s protection of overseas diplomats, saying “clusters of extremists” had “hijacked” film protests. Officials say it wasn’t until after Rice spoke that intelligence agencies adjusted the assessment to clarify that the attack was not spontaneous or even related to a peaceful protest.

Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y., chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee and a member of the House Intelligence Committee, said Rice should have reviewed the raw classified intelligence and not just relied on unclassified talking points provided to her.

Graham said he remains unconvinced that Rice was relying solely on information provided to her by intelligence agencies. But Graham said he is most concerned with the broader administration’s handling of the matter.

“This is about four dead Americans,” he said on “This Week” on ABC. “This is about a national security failure. We need a focused look at what happened here.”

So you are disappointed withy McCain, Graham, King, and Boehner. Please tell me just one time
that you were encouraged about anything they accomplished in congress. So why do you think it was going to happen now.
Side note, in the middle of this article there is a box asking us to vote to raise taxes if it would lower the deficit. It’s a trick question. The deficit has gone up every year since 1976 but one. We are
16 trillion in debt. Paying $150 billion a month in interest. Taxes are bringing in 250 billion a month.
By 2020 we will be 30 billion plus in debt, and paying 300 billion a month in interest. Everything else
in our government is irrelevant. Notice neither party is talking about tax cuts, which are only cuts
in the increase of spending. Obama is a fiscal nuclear bomb along with the democrats and the rino
republicans. So you are worried about Rice. She is just one worry I have in a totally corrupt goverment.

  From PRAVDA (excerpts)
  
  “.. O’bomber even keeps the war going along the Mexican border with projects like “fast and furious” and there is still no sign of ending it. He is a Communist without question promoting the Communist Manifesto without calling it so. How shrewd he is in America. His cult of personality mesmerizes those who cannot go beyond their ignorance. They will continue to follow him like those fools who still praise Lenin and Stalin in Russia. Obama’s fools and Stalin’s fools share the same drink of illusion.
  
  Putin could never have imagined anyone so ignorant or so willing to destroy their people like Obama much less seeing millions vote for someone like Obama. They read history in America don’t they? Alas, the schools in the U.S. were conquered by the Communists long ago and history was revised thus paving the way for their Communist presidents. Obama has bailed out those businesses that voted for him and increased the debt to over 16 trillion with an ever increasing unemployment rate especially among blacks and other minorities. All the while promoting his agenda.
  
  We’ll say that these Americans are hostages to the Communists in power. How long will their government reign tyranny upon them?
  The question is how long will the once “Land of the Free” remain the United Socialist States of America? Their suffering has only begun. Bye bye Miss American Pie!

  Now now, people, Rice is perhaps the perfect candidate– someone who knows how to lie well– and then justify, if necessary. We all now know that the most important WH foreign policy is going on “under the radar” in places like Benghazi…. And we need a black, woman bold faced liar, so any accusations can be dismissed as racist or sexist.
  
  The GOP is getting more idioticly clueless with each passing day.

  Pravda itself describing the WH as communist– not just liberal, or even progressive, but specifically Lenin-Stalin-Communist.
  If there is a news organization which has the right to call out Communism when it sees it, that must be Pravda, right? Great piece to keep and post on the WC wall for liberal guests to read.

  I agree 100%. I am starting to see that I may have to part company with the GOP. Romney’s loss, and don’t get me wrong I liked him a lot, is causing the GOP to start waffling already and they are going to cave on all of our conservative principles I fear. I don’t know where to turn now. Please don’t say the Tea Party is the answer.

  I gave the GOP a chance and they blew it. I would love to support the Tea Party, but supporting them now is the same as supporting the GOP. In the beginning, the Tea Party stood for “Taxed enough already” Very simple plateform, NO NEW TAXES AND LESS GOVERNMENT. What is so bad about that? I was a huge supporter of the Tea Party in 2009, but by the end of 2010, you could not tell the GOP from the Tea Party. The Tea Party was formed because NO politician was listening to the people. The republicans pretended to listen in the early stages of the Tea Party, but now they have NO ears again. If the GOP compromises on one issue, amnesty, taxes, etc…, I will never vote republican again, I might not ever vote again. The political machine does what it wants for power, not for right is right.

It was STUPID to pick THIS “fight” (LOL) re Rice in the first place. It doesn’t matter. They will only pick another Commie like her – there are many. The only thing I agree with the wimpy McCain & Graham duo is that she is not the problem (necessarily) – it’s the other “top” evil ones in this Empire of the Devil that put her up to it and gave her the lies to promote. But….all it ever is – is Kabuki.
Always.
I don’t know the numbers, but I think I’m one out of million others who didn’t vote for Obama and found out the truth, many of which were loyal Repub. voters for many years — that were ignorant of the humongous manipulation and fraud BOTH parties have been doing to us for many, many years -just using us. And…that there was NO WAY a real Consv. would EVER be nominated and win. RINO’s hate us & want to rid themselves of us. I still maintain we lost b/c of unprecedented massive fraud via corrupt software in the machines (& voter ID) but mostly by electronic means. They have to “let some” Consvs. win to keep up the facade that they’re more or less “honest”….to hide the fact they are corrupt to the core and getting worse…..Repubs. are the Dems of 30 yrs. ago w/Communist infiltrators; the Dems are mostly Communists/Marxists. Both are NWO people.
We must all face the hard cold facts that if we’re to get out of this mess, we need GOD, a new nat’l Tea Party that will tackle the fraud/fix, pro-Constitution – forget GOP. !!!

  Most of the people who voted for Romney share your sentiments Shaqfuey. The real problem is all those people who voted for Obama don’t seem to know much about the way Obama has governed. You see in comments sections after every Conservative opinion, Liberals who claims the GOP is mean spirited and only for the super rich, when from where I sit, I see a mean spirited Obama who has appointed other thugs for his administration, divided the country into voting blocks and proceeded to bully the blocks that don’t agree with him, i.e. white Conservatives are racists. Here is a president who further drove up the National dept by trillions, then only showered cronies with those precious trillions which he called a Stimulus to the economy. Obama has viciously attacked all those who have run against him or gotten in his way since becoming a State Senator in Chicago. No news on how he got there, seemingly out of no where. This doesn’t interest Democrat voters??? They don’t seek answers, they just take marching orders and comply.
  
  My new years resolution is to join every online commentary I read and list what know about Obama that makes him the “mean and ruthless” one. I would love it it if in the future, rather than allowing ourselves to play defense everytime against the Democrat smears, we lob facts at them instead. Like Obama is the one who wants to raise taxes, not the Republicans. The majority of Democrats polled said they thought Romney wanted to raise taxes, no

  Recently, Obama has been re-elected for a 2nd term by an illiterate society and he is ready to continue his lies of less taxes while he raises them. He gives speeches of peace and love in the world while he promotes wars as he did in Egypt, Libya and Syria. He plans his next war is with Iran as he fires or demotes his generals who get in the way.
  
  Putin said regarding the military,”…instead of solving the problem, militarization pushes it to a deeper level. It draws away from the economy immense financial and material resources, which could have been used much more efficiently elsewhere.”
  
  Well, any normal individual understands that as true but liberalism is a psychosis . O’bomber even keeps the war going along the Mexican border with projects like “fast and furious” and there is still no sign of ending it. He is a Communist without question promoting the Communist Manifesto without calling it so. How shrewd he is in America. His cult of personality mesmerizes those who cannot go beyond their ignorance.

Classic cowardice from the GOP and its leading co-conspirators in weakness, John McCain and Lindsey Graham. Face it, folks. Our last chance to save the country ended with Obama’s reelection. In truth, the election was lost on June 28, 2012 when Chief Justice John Roberts betrayed the Constitution by rubber stamping Obamacare. The best thing we can do is prepare our families and friends for the inevitable economic and social calamities that loom on the horizon.

Wimps! I am sick of the noodle necks making choices for the people back home. We sent them there to serve US not to serve themselves. Hold your heads up and say NO! She is not best for the country and that is IT ! ! ! !

  Absolutely! I share your frustration…they are whimpy!! Even worse, they care more about their own power than the truth and ‘WE the People’….

I don’t mean this comment to come out racist on my part, but, I don’t think Obama will be satisfied until his entire administration is of a different color than white. (Or pretty close to it) No matter if they are qualified or not. (Eric Holder) “Social Justice” is always on his mind. And lets face it, Obama is clearly racist no matter how hard they try to cover it up. He throws white folks a bone now and then when they tow the line for him, but that’s about it………..

Not racist, just my informed observation.

  I think that is a fair observation given the percentage of black voters who supported him and the anti-white / conservative/ Republican rhetoric emanating from this administration…

  I don’t think you need to worry about sounding racists .
  
  “The point I was making was not that my grandmother harbors any racial animosity. She doesn’t. But she is a typical white person….”
  
  “So I read the book to help me understand what it is that makes white people so afraid, their demons, the way ideas get twisted around. It helps me understand how people learn to hate.”
  
  “That hate hasn’t gone away”….”white people — some cruel, some ignorant, sometimes a single face, sometimes just a faceless image of a system claiming power over our lives.”
  
  “There were enough of us on campus to constitute a tribe, and when it came to hanging out, many of us chose to function like a tribe, staying close together, traveling in packs. . . It remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names”
  
  “I found solice in nursing a pervasive sense of grievancee and animosity against my mother’s race”
  
  “I ceased to advertise my mother’s race at the age of 12 or 13, when I began to suspect that by doing so I was ingratiating myself to whites.’
  
  ‘There was something about her that made me wary, a little too sure of herself, maybe and white..’
  Barack Hussein Obama
  
  “Though this nation has proudly thought of itself as an ethnic melting pot, in things racial we have always been and continue to be, in too many ways, essentially a nation of cowards.”
  Eric Holder, Attorney General

Well, now they want us to think she was so dumb at that time, that she only new what Obama told her to say (although the rest of the world knew the truth) but she’s really smart enough to be secretary of state. Well I don’t know about you but I feel much safer already knowing that she’s so much smarter than Hillary. But then Hillary knew when to say no thanks to Obama. Oh well, You be the judge.

Unbelievable – Anyone else (outside the Obama administration) who did such a thing would never even be considered for Secretary of State or any other high position.

  I agree-I dumped the GOP after they made McCain the nominee. I have been saying for the last 10 yrs the GOP is gutless. I don’t know about you, but I feel disenfranchised (borrowing from 2000). There isn’t anyone that can stand for OUR values anymore. They (GOP) may SAY they have my values, but are cowards and will not STAND for them.
