Rep. Peter King, the New York Republican who chairs the House Homeland Security Committee, has demanded the resignation of U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice in the wake of the Benghazi attack.
King said on CNN Friday that Rice’s explanation on the talk shows was “such a failure of foreign policy message and leadership” and “such a misstatement of facts” that “I believe she should resign.”
GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney also accused the administration of being dishonest.
“I think it’s pretty clear that they haven’t wanted to level with the American people. We expect candor from the president and transparency,” Romney told Fox News this week. Meanwhile, U.S. intelligence officials sought to explain Friday why the Obama administration’s understanding of the Sept. 11 attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi is “evolving.”
Facing a barrage of Republican criticism about what the administration knew and when about the attack, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence issued a statement Friday that laid out how officials came to understand the assault that killed U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans. At the same time, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations issued a statement explaining her early descriptions of the attack.

Save your breath, Peter, garbage doesn't move til WE kick it to the curb!! Then, it sits there and waits for someone else to come along and remove it!! It's the nature of the beast!!
But, NEVER give up!!
Virgo your right he could talk to a rock and get farther ahead.Obutthole could care less what King and the rest of congress think.If only our so called media would get behind King and Issa we'd have a new ball game.your also right never give up.
Not only Rice should step down, but Clinton also. She was just as vocal on the deceit as Rice was. The ONLY one we have YET to hear from that this was a terrorist attack is oblameo!
Two WEEKS now and he has YET to admit it. We have YET to have boots on the ground to investigate this brutal murder of our deligates!
Seeks your right but the both of them got their marching orders from Obutthole and like good soldiers they carried them out like all the others including Patreus.
I especially like the bipartisan impeachment talk I hear going around. This is a VERY obvious impeachment act.
Nixon stepped down because of lying and the subsequent cover up. Clinton had impeachment started for lying and the cover up. Oblameo shouldn't be let off the hook!
