Why Me? 苏三大米又开始打种族和性别牌
奥巴马雇她的时候她有没有问:why me?
左派其实也就这么几招,LOL
Susan Rice, the Obama national security adviser under fire over her alleged involvement in the “unmasking” of Trump associates during the 2016
presidential election, suggested in a fresh interview that race and gender
might be playing a role in the scrutiny she’s faced.
In an interview with journalist Michael Tomasky for New York Magazine, Rice reportedly questioned the criticism she’s faced dating back to the Benghazi controversy.
“Why me? Why not Jay Carney, for example, who was then our press secretary, who stood up more?” she asked.
Tomasky noted in the piece that Carney “isn’t an African-American woman,
of course” and apparently asked Rice whether that is the key factor. Rice, in response, left the door open:
“I don’t know… I do not leap to the simple explanation that it’s only
about race and gender. I’m trying to keep my theories to myself until I’m ready to come out with them. It’s not because I don’t have any.”
SUSAN RICE REQUESTED TO UNMASK NAMES
But Rice mentioned other prominent female figures – like Hillary Clinton
and Condoleezza Rice – who faced “ad hominem” attacks, suggesting a
correlation.
Asked about the comments, a Republican Capitol Hill source pushed back. “
This is screaming out for attention… She’s saying I don’t know why they
all started picking on me to begin with.”
As to the suggestion of race and gender being a factor, the source countered, then “why would there be a subpoena for a white male?”
That was a reference to the fact that Rice is not the only focus of the
congressional probe into unmasking. Investigators have issued subpoenas to
three different agencies: NSA, CIA and FBI.
Those subpoenas have asked for unmasking information related to three
individuals: former CIA Director John Brennan, former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Samantha Power, and Rice.
She’s not the only focus of congressional frustration, either. Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., had a tense exchange with a top intelligence community
lawyer at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Tuesday where he
complained he still doesn’t have an answer on whether his communications
have been monitored.
“Am I ever gonna get [the response] in my lifetime?” he asked.
Rice told Judy Woodruff on PBS on March 22 that she “knew nothing” about
the unmasking of Trump associates. But weeks later on MSNBC, she admitted
she sometimes sought out the identities of Trump associates who communicated with foreigners, a request known as “unmasking” in the intelligence
community.
But “I leaked nothing to nobody,” Rice told MSNBC.
Rice initially became a target of Republican criticism back in 2012 for
giving misleading information about the origin of the Benghazi terror attack. On Sept. 16, 2012, just days after the attack, Rice appeared on all five
Sunday political talk shows to claim the Benghazi attack spun out of a
protest over an anti-Muslim video produced in California.
Former CIA Director David Petraeus reportedly told lawmakers later that the intelligence community considered the attack an act of terrorism at the time. Four Americans were killed in Benghazi, including U.S. Ambassador to Libya Chris Stevens.
