Quote:Susan Rice defiant amid growing calls for her to testify under oath
There were reports late Tuesday that Rice will be called to testify before the House Intelligence Committee about the ongoing probe. And in a letter to both the House and Senate Intelligence committees released Tuesday night, a group of lawmakers...demanded that Rice be called to testify, suggesting the matter is worthy of an immediate Congressional investigation.
In the letter, Reps Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., Chris Collins, R-New York, and Lou Barletta, R-Penn, suggest Rice's behavior "appears negligent at best and criminal at worst."
When asked on Tuesday if she would testify, Rice said she wanted to see what happened but didn't want to "pre-judge."
Heh, doesn't sound unequivocally forthright, now, does it?
"Rice said she wanted to see what happened" <---- Translation: "Hell, no, not unless they're willing to grant me immunity from prosecution!"
I guess she has learned through repeated experience that she can't glibly lie and expect not to be caught in her lies. Lying under oath is a crime (perjury), so.....
