		<description>&lt;p&gt;Charles Krauthammer covers it&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/charles-krauthammer-the-great-gaffe/2012/10/18/38ce0d18-1954-11e2-bd10-5ff056538b7c_story.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Here.&lt;/a&gt;

This is about two weeks of pretending organized terrorism, specifically al Qaeda, had nothing to do with this when all the information since the attack pointed the other way.

Either Obama is horribly uninformed, or a liar.  The next debate should be interesting.

Whatever Bush did after attacks on us, he never pretended they had nothing to do with the long war we were in then, still are now, and will be for years.</description>

		<description>The response was nuanced for a reason.  It had just happened!  Not to mention the fucking CIA was involved as I pointed  out days ago.  

This is the most idiotic issue ever.  &quot;When did Obama call it an act of terror?&quot;  Who gives a fuck?  But in the immediate he made referenced as terror.  Sometime after when he knew it for sure he confirmed it.  Again there is an investigation STILL going on.  

What was the big GOP praise of Bush?  There had been no terrorist attacks ON US SOIL since 911?  All the attacks on US diplomatic posts during his admin were treated by republicans as more reason to vote for bush because it&#039;s not safe out there.  

Utter nonsense.</description>

		<description>He said &quot;act of terror&quot;.  Yes it was slightly nuanced because the facts were not all in.  They still are not all in.  This whole line of argument is mindbogglingly stupid.</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;And Buck?&lt;/p&gt;

&quot;Move on&quot; is what liberals say when they&#039;re on the short end of an argument.

When they think they&#039;re winning, they latch their teeth onto the throat of an issue and hang on like insane honey badgers.</description>

		<description>I have to admit I&#039;ve viewed that scene several times now, and it never gets old. Wiley Coyote doesn&#039;t do a better job of running off the cliff than old Mitt did. And he himself dragged Crowley into it.

One thing that&#039;s clear is that Romney was ignoring the citizen who asked the question about Libya, and was pleading his case directly to Candy Crowley:
&lt;img src=&quot;http://habitablezone.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/Romney-pleads-to-Crowley.jpg&quot; /&gt;
Which explains the way she seemed to have been startled into confirming that the transcript does indeed show Romney to be a liar. Obama had just told him that it was in the transcript and to proceed, Romney turns to Crowley as if for confirmation, and she answered the implied question.

Here&#039;s another still from two seconds before that captures Barack&#039;s dawning realization of what&#039;s about to happen:
&lt;img src=&quot;/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/Please-proceed-Governor.jpg&quot; /&gt;

Ain&#039;t that beautiful?

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Romney was right.&lt;/p&gt;

You can hang everything on those two little words, or you can watch weeks of multiple speeches in multiple venues that were all about the video and a protest that got out of hand, and nothing else.

Everybody saw it happen.
