President Barack Obama on Wednesday dismissed the attacks on United Nations Ambassador Susan Rice by Sen. John McCain and Sen. Lindsey Graham regarding her statements about the Sept. 11 attacks on the consulate in Benghazi.
“If Senator McCain and Senator Graham want to go after someone, they should go after me,” Obama said during his press conference at the White House.
While Obama deferred any comments about possible Cabinet appointments, he said that the calls for a “Watergate-style” investigation into the situation would not stop him from considering nominating Rice to succeed Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. If he decides that Rice is the best choice to be secretary of state, Obama said, “I will nominate her.”
“I don’t think there’s any debate in this country that when you have our Americans killed that’s a problem,” Obama said. “They won’t get any debate from me on that. But when they go after the U.N. ambassador, apparently because they think she’s an easy target, then they’ve got a problem with me.”
