Graham Squirms on CNN After CBS Retracts Benghazi Story: I 'Never Asked' for '60 Minutes' Interview

Last week, CBS News correspondent Lara Logan admitted that she made a "mistake" after reports showed that her source, security contractor Dylan Davies, was not at the U.S. mission in Benghazi during the Sept. 11, 2011 terrorist attack as he had claimed.

In an interview with CNN late last month, Graham had cited the Davies interview while repeating his threat to block all of the president's nominations until survivors of the Benghazi attack testified before Congress.

"But the 60 Minutes story was not true," CNN's Candy Crowley noted on Sunday. "Will you now end your threat to place a hold on the president's nominees?"

"No, my request has been going on for a year to talk to the survivors," Graham insisted. "I never asked for the British contractor. I didn't know he existed."

Lindsey still will not give it (Benghazi) up. Graham had a chance to question everybody as per Benghazi but
he just did not like the answers he got.
