GOP Senators 'More Concerned' About Benghazi After Rice Meeting


A Capitol Hill meeting Tuesday between United Nations Ambassador Susan Rice and U.S. Senators John McCain (R-AZ), Lindsay Graham (R-S.C.), and Kelly Ayotte (R-N.H.) did little to quell the Republicans' criticism of Rice's involvement in the White House's handling of the Sept. 11 attacks on U.S. diplomatic personnel in Benghazi, Libya. 
“We are significantly troubled by many of the answers that we got and some that we didn’t get,” McCain told reporters after the hour-long meeting. 
Graham and Ayotte also doubled down on their criticism, saying that the confab had raised additional questions about the statements Rice made on political talk shows in the weeks following the attacks. 
"I'm more disturbed now than I was before,"Graham said. "I think it does not do justice to the reality at the time and in hindsight clearly was completely wrong."
