On Sunday's NBC Meet the Press, moderator David Gregory urged
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell to condemn fellow Republicans for
drawing parallels between the scandals rocking the Obama administration
and those that occurred under President Nixon: "Would you call
on Republicans who talk about impeaching the President or who talk about
this as a Nixonian-style cover-up with regard to Benghazi, would you
like them to stop it?"
McConnell responded: "Well, what I think we ought to do is complete the
investigation and found out – find out what exactly happened....we know
the administration kind of made up a tale here in order to make it seem
like it wasn't a – a terrorist attack. I think that's worthy of
investigation and the investigations ought to go forward."
