Ok. I'm not going to argue this point, just want reactions. Romneys statement last night accusing the Obama administration of apologizing to the attackers was repeated today. Do you think this is his way of appeasing the Rep. pundits who say he's not being tough enough? Do you think it was appropriate? Do you think it was a mistake?
I think Romney is pulling this stuff out of his butt.
I haven't read all the pages, but let me guess what I'd find: it's Obama's fault.
Am I right? Do I win a prize?
Who's is fault is it? Isn't he the one who help get rid of Gaddafi? Didn't they say helping the "rebels" was a good thing. That they would be our allies?
Libyan officials said that 2 Marines arrived there but didn't say where they came from and those 2 died.
Libyan nationals were doing the protection. We outsourced our embassy protection to our enemy ..good Lord.
Ehhh....the embassy is in Tripoli, and it's guarded by US Marines.
Yep, just straight forward reporting on what actually happened.....which is Romney showed leadership and Obama once again showed his pandering to radicals and his foreign policy weakness.
Ehhh....the embassy is in Tripoli, and it's guarded by US Marines.
Benghazi is a consulate.
Quote:
An evacuation plane with U.S. commandos units then arrived from Tripoli to evacuate them from the house.
"It was supposed to be a secret place and we were surprised the armed groups knew about it. There was shooting," Sharif said. Two U.S. personnel were killed there, he said. Two other people were killed at the main consular building and between 12 and 17 wounded.
I cannot believe, well actually I can, that Romney bots think making a statement over something that was issued by the Embassy towards the citizens of Egypt before the Ambassador got killed could actually be from the WH. Romeny is an idiot and has clue. he doesn't deserve to be President if he gonna jump to conclusions like this. He owes Obama and all of America an apology.
I agree this takes Romney off message in terms of the economy and it will be a mistake his campaign will regret in the upcoming weeks. Romney's campaign needs to realize they can't stand toe to toe with Obama in regards to foreign affairs and every day they don't talk about the economy, the better it will be for Obama. Romney's bringing foreign affairs to forefront only reminds voters how he wants to take us to war with Iran. A replay of the Bush years with Iraq.
ROFL!!!! The economy and foreign affairs are two of Obamas many weak points....probably the weakest.
Obama had ZERO foreign affairs experience coming into his presidency (community organizer and all) and will leave soon with very little experience.
As more and more facts are revealed (this appears to be an organized attack by a known group) Romney is looking more and more like the fool he is.
