WASHINGTON White House senior adviser Dan Pfeiffer said Sunday Republicans owe Susan Rice, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, an apology for alleging she played a part in formulating the White Houses response to the attacks in Benghazi, Libya, last year that killed four Americans.
Pfeiffer said on ABCs This Week that the release of more than 100 pages of Benghazi emails and notes show beyond a shadow of the doubt that accusations she tried to change the narrative of what happened in the attacks was false.
"And, frankly, I think that many of the Republicans who have been talking about this, now that they have seen the emails, owe Ambassador Rice an apology for the things they said about her in the wake of the attack, he said.
An apology for what? host George Stephanopoulos asked.
For accusing her of misleading the country, Pfeiffer said, adding, For saying that she didn't -- that somehow we were -- she was involved in some sort of political whitewash of what happened there. What she said was what the intelligence community believed at the time. And when we got further information, we told the American people what that was. That's how people know what happened here.
Pfeiffers comments arent likely to sit well with some, like GOP lawmakers like Sens. Lindsey Graham and John McCain, who led the charge against her and claimed she played an active role in the conspiracy to hide what actually happened during the Benghazi attacks.

Owe her an apology????
LOL
Who made her go on the Sunday news wearing a sandwich sign .
FU....sorry....not.
Ohhhhhhh, now they want to talk about Benghazi! LOL! Pfeiffer is a hack’s hack.
All it means is that someone else wrote the lies she uttered. How is that better?
and this subhuman liar, rice, got some kind of award recently from some pinhead LIB group. An award for lieing??? The LIBs are insufferable. ALL LIBs should be waterboarded multiple times then deported.
We owe Rice a fair and impartial trial, before she is sent off to prison.
Somewhere in the past her great, great, grandmother and the plantation owner came together.
I can’t help but laugh. This administration has absolutely owned the media and they have gotten away with crap like this so often in the past they still think it will work.
This is absurd. Completely absurd. They know it, we know it, and it appears the MSM has finally realized it. This week will be real important. Will the media switch back to protective mode or will they continue the little bit of skepticism they have shown in the past few weeks?
I may be a minority on this issue, but, I’ve always wondered why nobody talks about the fact that we were fed “talking points” in the first place.
Why were we fed “talking points” as opposed to the facts of the situation?
And, you wonder why Susan Rice, UN Ambassador who had nothing to do with Bengazi (sp?), was sent out there to do this, instead of Hillary Clinton.
And the media gave Hillary a pass when she said that she has better things to do on a Sunday morning than go on the Sunday news shows. okay.................
This guys mouth flapped quicker that a whippoorwills a$$ in a windstorm. Chris Wallace could hardly believe what he was hearing, nor could I.
By the way, we cannot let Benghazi fade behind the rest of the Ubama scandals. It is my opinion that the IRS scandal was brought up NOW to try to get people off Benghazi - - and AWAY from Hillary Clinton.
The IRS scandal is all about protecting Hillary, and the IRS scandal, in process for at least 9 months, may have been brought to the surface NOW by the Clintons. NOTHING in politics happens by coincidence. PLUS, it’s a “two-fer” - - deflect attention from Benghazi (and Hillary), AND spank Ubama for playing the race card and stealing Hillary’s destiny in 2008.
Pfeiffer takes insufferable to a whole new level. The irony of his statements today is they created that many more questions that beg for answers.
This guy Pfeiffer is a real tool.
I watched him work on FNS this morning.
Mafia tactics.
No apology owed.She knew what she was doing. She can deny, perhaps has “plausible deniability” but she would not be at that level in government unless she werre intelligent enough to know what she was doing.
Release the rest of the emails Dan, we owe her nothing!
Who added the protest over a video to the talking points that wasn’t true, you jerk?!
The James Carville Gambit.
Well, darn!
“This guys mouth flapped quicker than...”
Standard way of making yourself sound smart to the low-information voters while reciting incomprehensible garbage & talking points.
“The IRS scandal is all about protecting Hilary”
Dead on
