You’re right — and I’m afraid the takeaway from this one will be a big plus for Obama. Our guys lost in that exchange, and like a real sports pro does after he makes a bad play, sometimes you just have to suck it up and let it go.
This will cost Romney points in the polls.
hey crisssy it’s early....
If Obama said it was an act of terrorism from the beginning, why did he and Hillary spend $70,000 on an “apology” video to Muslims, and had an American citizen arrested for this video? Then sending Jay Carney, Susan Rice, and Hillary to lie for him. I just wish Romney mentioned the 70K apology video and asked when the American people are going to be reimbursed for it.
It was wrong for her to come down one way or another on it. I can't believe there is any perception of proper conduct on her part.
1 then what was the video tape story all about? And
2 why would you then run off to Las Vegas for a fund raiser rather than gathering the security council?
he digs his hole deeper and Candy handed him a better shovel.
She has now admitted that she WAS wrong, Sissy Matthews. So let’s see you go after her.
Once again, the left and especially the state-run government-media complex have to compensate for the incompetence of the affirmative-action president.
One woman asking about pa.
Another woman asking about AK47’s
But the trump of them all is when the woman stood up and said she is not happy with the last 4 years but blames it on overseas and Bush. How was Romney different from Bush because he;s a republican, you'd think Bush was a demon from hell or something the way she spoke,
WTH was that about, , these questions were pathetic, Crowley got it wrong, she picked the wrong questions and her bias was out there for all to see and she got bullied by obama just like Biden bullied his way through his debate.
You also got it right about when Romney was making a point about Fast and furious, as soon as Romney tried to talk about this she cut him off but let obama talk and talk and talk and talk and talk.
Romney killed the Marxist on the economy and deficits. Libya is down the list of issues that matter to the mushy undecideds. But there is no way Obama can “win” on this issue, as the facts are the facts. An ambassador is DEAD, and Obama and his sociopathic minions all lied. Further, the next debate is all foreign policy, and Romney (hopefully) will set the record straight in very clear terms:
1. Security was asked for.
2. It was not received.
3. An ambassador and 3 others were brutally killed.
4. You blamed a video. Your minions blamed a video. On TV and to the UN.
5. Against all evidence that was in your hands you never called it a terrorist attack until weeks later.
6. Your foreign policy is based on illusion and deception, and fails to recognize the realities of the world. Al Qaeda and its derivatives are quite alive and well.
It is typical of the way “O” has handled EVERYTHING.
He is so disinclined to the idea of personal responsibility, so unqualified at decision-making and incapable of commitment that his responses ALWAYS take on this imprecise, ill-defined and ambiguous character.
It is INVARIABLY the way he responds to a challenge or a question!! I have had enough of this and it’s time for a straight forward leadership!
like half of those women asking questions were undecided, like those questions picked by Crowlet was not bias and like having it up in NY was nto going to be bias and like Crowley not letting the public hear about fast and furious or even Romney talking about Libya etc.
The whole thing was a farce.\\First Biden bullies and now obama bullies the mod and now my local news is saying that Crowlet said read the transcirpt as he said it.
course no mention from the local news that he did not say it, Crowlet got it wrong or even how he kept saying this was a you tube video.
We might as well have Levin moderate, down in so called un decideds in SC, or even MS,AL, OK
Excellent summary.
This will be the line of rebuttal from Mitt.
That coupled with “ flexibility comment” and relating F&F to foreign relations
will put O where he belongs.
He’ll bob and weave, put out some lines assisted by the moderator, but the
thinking public will see right through it.
like half of those women asking questions were undecided,
Based on their having to read from notes, and forgetting points I absolutely
agree with your assessment
On each item, like speeches before the coffins, order to lower flags to half mast, etc., the word "terror" (or "terrorism") only appears in that one generic statement made from the Rose Garden - and I don;t think Obama wants to say that he jumped to the conclusion it was terrorism, when the administration line was that investigation had to be done.
Crowley was wrong but the press is carrying her water.
HUH , Romney won, he had the facts, he pointed out the facts and the bad state of this country and the lies on Libya.
Not sure wy you’[re saying bama won because he had no facts, he lied about drilling, Libya, his taxes, he kept trying ti run away from his bad record of 4 years
What are you on about we have to move on and suck it up
ROMNEY WON, OBAMA RAN AWAY FROM THE LAST 4 YEARS

I'm often embarrassed for them.
They're Delusional.
Mathews will explain to use that she is wrong about saying she is wrong.
Seriously.
By then, Mr. Romney had had enough, and talked over her demands. “No, let — let — let me go back and speak to the points the president made and — and — and let’s get them correct.”
At the next question, the moderator lost all control. “Candy,” Mr. Obama said. “Hold on.” “Mr. President,” the governor said, “I’m still speaking.” They mixed it up for a bit, then Ms. Crowley said: “Sit down, Mr. Romney.”
The most shocking exchange took place on the Benghazi attack that left the U.S. ambassador to Libya and three others dead.
Mr. Romney: “You said in the Rose Garden the day after the attack, it was an act of terror? It was not a spontaneous demonstration, is that what you’re saying.”
Mr. Obama made no defense. “Please proceed, governor.”
“I want to make sure,” Mr. Romney said. “Get the transcript,” the president said. Then Ms. Crowley jumped in to do her own fact-check, on the spot. “It — it — it — he did in fact, sir. … He did call it an act of terror.”
The truth is, he didn’t. The day after the attack, he said only this: “No acts of terror will ever shake the resolve of this great nation, alter that character or eclipse the light of the values that we stand for.” It took another two weeks before the White House would label the attack an act of terror........"
As a proud New Yorker, I was embarrassed by those Long Islanders last night. Stupid questions combined with stupid accents. Who can forget the dimwit who asked Romney how he was personally different from George Bush????????
