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.

If you know what he said, then you know you are wrong. You can't change the facts, it's on record...

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?

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.

Do either of those men hold licenses to practice law? I know Obama rescinded his but don't know about Romney.

I think I'll wait for the polling info that reflects the last debate to see how badly the eggs look on the Mythster.

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".

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 absolutely no 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.
