John McCain Calls Obama ‘Inept’ and ‘Ignorant’ in Reaction to Benghazi Attack (Video)

John McCain slammed the Obama administration today calling Obama “inept” and “ignorant” in his response to the Benghazi consulate attack.

McCain forgot to add “dishonest” to his list.

The Hill reported:

Republicans continued this weekend to hammer the Obama administration over its response to the recent Libya attacks, with Sen. John McCain calling the president “inept” and “ignorant” in his handling of the episode.

The Arizona Republican said the administration’s initial claim that an anti-Muslim video incited the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi was political spin that “doesn’t pass the smell test.”

“It was either willful ignorance or dismal intelligence to think that people come to spontaneous demonstrations with heavy weapons, mortars, and the attack goes on for hours,” McCain said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” program.

“To blame it on the video … shows the absolute ineptitude and ignorance of the realities,” McCain added. “It’s not the videos, it’s the radical Islamists [who] are pushing the videos.”
