Lindsey Graham: Clinton "Got Away with Murder"
Not impressed with her Benghazi testimony
Sen. Lindsey Graham wasn't impressed with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's testimony at the Benghazi congressional hearing, telling Fox News that she "got away with murder."
"Hillary Clinton got away with murder in my view. She said they had a clear-eyed view of the threats. How could you have a clear-eyed view of the threats in Benghazi when you didn't know about the ambassador's cable coming back from Libya?" the South Carolina Republican told host Greta Van Susteren Monday on "On The Record".
"Our guys tried to ask questions, she is very good on her feet, deflecting the questions. But she said two things that will come back to haunt her, they had a clear-eyed assessment of the threats in Libya, and they had close contact with the Libyan government. I don't believe either one of them," the lawmaker added.
