Lindsey Graham: House Benghazi Report ‘Full of Crap’

Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) told CNN’s State of the Union Sunday morning that last week’s the House Intelligence Committee’s Benghazi report, which hollowed out a number of Republican arguments on the incident, was “full of crap.”

Guest host Gloria Borger asked whether Graham was accusing the House Intel Committee of lying.

“No, I’m saying the House Intelligence Committee is doing a lousy job policing their own,” he said. “I’m saying that anybody who has followed Benghazi at all knows that the CIA deputy director did not come forward to tell Congress what role he played in changing the talking points. And the only way we knew he was involved is when he told a representative at the White House, I’m going to do a hard review of this, a hard rewrite.”

Graham said the Select Committee on Benghazi led by Representative Trey Gowdy (R-SC) would get to the bottom of things.
