Actually it was Candy Crowley, who was in the tank for Obama, who inappropriately and incorrectly backed up Obama's false statement that Romney was in the midst of calling him out on.

"When Romney said Obama had not called the attack an act of terror for 14 days, Crowley interrupted and said: “It -- it -- it -- he did in fact, sir. So let me -- let me call it an act of terror.

Naturally, Obama asked her to restate her point and she did. “Can you say that a little louder, Candy?” asked the president. “He -- he did call it an act of terror. It did as well take -- it did as well take two weeks or so for the whole idea there being a riot out there about this tape to come out. You are correct about that,” she continued."

[Afterwards] "...Crowley also admitted she took her cue to intervene from Obama." [Source]

Even worse, Crowley KNEW she was spinning for Obama, because:

"On Sunday, September 30th, Candy Crowley interviewed John McCain on the Benghazi scandal. During the interview, she said:
Friday [Sept 28th], we got the administration’s sort of definitive statement that this now looks as though it was a pre-planned attack by a terrorist group, some of whom were at least sympathetic to Al-Qaeda. Why do you think, and are you bothered, that it has taken them so long to get to this conclusion?" [Source]

You're leading credence to the claim, "Whichever side complains first after the debate, lost." Thanks.

You might get me to read this one. It is more manageble for one thing - when I debunk all 7 of the items listed.

Lol, not only did you take the bait, but you swallowed my whole damn pole.

But you are willing to sit in quiet while your president sends thousands of assault weapons across the border, full well knowing they would be used in heinous crimes, all while he sits back invoking executive privileges and acting gleefully ignorant.

"Yes. That works" LOL!

I admitted Biden was rude(he laughed throughout Ryan's turns to talk). He was nowhere near as disrespectful as Romney though.

To see the same type of behavior from a candidate for President on a stage during a debate is disgusting.
Awww... poor Obama.

I definitely detected frustration from Romney because he didn't always get his way.
