The national security adviser, Susan Rice, said on Sunday she was not '100 percent correct' in her remarks after the deadly 2012 attack on a U.S. compound in Libya, but called it patently false to say she intentionally misled Americans about the incident. On NBC's Meet the Press, Rice said that when she made statements about the attacks that killed four Americans, including that they were 'spontaneous,' she was simply sharing 'the best information she had' at the time. Rice was the ambassador to the United Nations at the time and the comments met with  backlash, with Republican lawmakers accusing the White House of downplaying the attacks ahead of the presidential election.
