UN ambassador, mouthpiece for Obama presidential campaign. September 16, 2012 10:55 am RobVG

Just saw this on Meet the Press:

MS. RICE: Well, first of all, David, let’s put this in perspective. As I said, this is a response to a– a very offensive video. It’s not the first time that American facilities have come under attack in the Middle East, going back to 1982 in– in Beirut, going back to the Khobar Towers in– in Saudi Arabia, or even the attack on our embassy in 2008 in Yemen.
GREGORY: Or Iran in 1979.

It’s pretty obvious she started with an attack during the Reagan years rather than the most significant action by a Muslim nation to avoid any negative connotation of a Democratic administration. Her whole segment was nauseating.

Kudos to Gregory for calling her on it.
