Go back to your celebrity gossip or whatever it else you spend your time doing.
The askers likely know more than the typical voter in either party who votes party, regardless of who.

FALSE. See above post with the actual excerpt of the speech and discussion of the excerpt. To say he was not speaking about Benghazi is to totally deny reality and to be part of the attempt to perpetuate the Romney lie when people who can actually read English can see from the speech that President Obama WAS talking about Benghazi.

How savvy would you be if you were standing before two powerhouses? It's not a conspiracy.

Well, if you know what you saw and heard, then why keep trying to split hairs with grammar semantics?

To those who understand English, act of terror = terrorist attack. To suggest otherwise is to engage in some weird bizarro-anti-logic.

Why not? Romney clearly beat Obama on many of the issues that matter most to voters... the economy, taxes, the deficit, and health care.

Psychic? No, I just watched the debate like all those others who saw Romney beat Obama on the important issues.

Most of the Republicans have been living in Bizarro Land for the past four years, trying to fight some imagined up Bizarro version of Barack Obama.

It was wrong for the moderator Candice to inject her misleading terror fact-check into the debate. Obama never said the Benghazi killing was an act of terror in his rose garden address.

I watched the debate on CNN & their timers showed Obama talked 5 minutes longer than Romney. Every time Romney tried to get equal time to make his point the moderator Candice would shut him down. She was defiantly trying to make Romney look bad. Romney had to be assertive & step on her toes because she would have shut him out & let Obama do all the talking.
