The controversy IS keeping attention focused on the LIE Obama and his admin propagated for days about the attack being caused by a YouTube video.
The whole world is being reminded on a daily basis that Obama and his admin LIED about the attack, repeatedly.
I think you people should keep at it. Keeping the face of Romney out there with egg on it, is much better than talking about what Romney was actually pretty good with, enumerating what plans Obama was not able to get accomplished. Hey, keep the focus on the egg face I say.
I agree. It did seem like Romney genuinely didn't understand that he was wrong and that what he had been told by Fox News and RushBeck O'Hannity was incorrect.
I see that you aren't a viewer of CNN either. You don't know that just after the debate she admitted to the CNN man that she had confused the story and that would say that it was Obama and Candy that were wrong.
It must be either MM, TP or MSNBC that you get all your info from. Which is it?
The funny thing is that Mitt thought he had caught Obama in a gotcha moment that would go down in the annals of history. Mitt knew how the President was going to answer the question, it was his own lack of knowledge of the facts and not just the Fox News talking points that got him in trouble.
It was the rhetorical equivalent of getting ran over by your own car after you put it in gear and stomped on the throttle.
So you think Obama won something there without Crowley making her mistake? I think you don't even know that she interrupted Romney 28 times and Obama only 8. She was just a tad biased as could be seen during the debate. You did watch it, didn't you? Maybe you went out to the kitchen for a beer or something when that happened.
Again, that doesn't matter. The question was about the words used the day after the attack and only the day after the attack. Not about the days after that. Romney should have attacked him from a different angle. Instead he focused on the wrong thing. He's a lawyer, same as Obama. He should know better in how he frames his questioning.
Do either of those men hold licenses to practice law? I know Obama rescinded his but don't know about Romney.
Do you watch Hannity or just wait till next day for Media Matters and Think Prog to come out with what was said? I think I know but you maybe should answer the question for me.
It occurs to me that his reference in general to acts of terror way down near the end of his speech was a subconscious slip. He may well have known it was terror, but he didn't want to let the world know that because he wanted everyone to believe that Al Qaeda was "on the run". So, the Administration put forth a huge effort to blame the video instead, all the while knowing that they were lying.
And he wants us to believe that he was being "cautious".
Again... Obama's Rose Garden speech on September 12th clearly refers to "the denigration of religious beliefs" as the cause of the attack:
"Yesterday, four of these extraordinary Americans were killed in an attack on our diplomatic post in Benghazi. Among those killed was our Ambassador, Chris Stevens, as well as Foreign Service Officer Sean Smith. We are still notifying the families of the others who were killed. And today, the American people stand united in holding the families of the four Americans in our thoughts and in our prayers.
The United States condemns in the strongest terms this outrageous and shocking attack. We're working with the government of Libya to secure our diplomats. I've also directed my administration to increase our security at diplomatic posts around the world. And make no mistake, we will work with the Libyan government to bring to justice the killers who attacked our people.
Since our founding, the United States has been a nation that respects all faiths. We reject all efforts to denigrate the religious beliefs of others. But there is absolutelyno justification to this type of senseless violence. None."
To what do you think "this" refers?
Neither the Rose Garden comments Sept 12 nor the Colorado comments Sept 13, could be misunderstood, well, unless there is no intention of ever understanding what the Prez said.
