Susan Rice se retire de la course


Victime de la "politicaillerie"... Le Président Obama perd son premier choix pour le poste de Secrétaire d'État.

 "By acceding to Ms. Rice’s request, which she had conveyed to White House aides the night before, Mr. Obama averted a bitter, potentially disruptive battle with Republicans in Congress at the start of his second term and at a time when his administration is struggling to reach a politically difficult deal on the federal budget.

 In a statement, the president praised Ms. Rice and expressed some anger over the withering criticism directed at her by Republicans because of comments she made in the aftermath of the lethal attack on the American mission in Benghazi, Libya.

 “While I deeply regret the unfair and misleading attacks on Susan Rice in recent weeks,” he said, “her decision demonstrates the strength of her character, and an admirable commitment to rise above the politics of the moment to put our national interests first.”
