Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) and Fox News have come to the same conclusion -- describing the attacks on the U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya as an "act of terror" is different, and somehow less accurate, than describing them as a terrorist attack.
On September 12, 2012, the day after the Benghazi attacks, Obama delivered a speech in the Rose Garden in which he referred to the attacks as an "act of terror," saying: "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." The following day, Obama twice referred to the attacks as an act of terror, once in Colorado and once in Las Vegas.
During an appearance on Fox News' America Live, Issa accused Obama of minimizing the attacks by referring to them as an "act of terror," saying: "An act of terror is different than a terrorist attack. The truth is, this was a terrorist attack."

Issa is such a pathetic idiot.
People are seeing right through his little dog and pony show, and he's getting desperate to stay relevant.
Fool.
Whatever the reason, when given repeated opportunities to forthrightly declare this was an “act of terrorism,” the president ducked the question. For instance, on Sept. 12, immediately after the Rose Garden statement the day after the attack, Obama sat down with Steve Kroft of 60 Minutes and acknowledged he purposely avoided the using the word “terrorism:” KROFT: “Mr. President, this morning you went out of your way to avoid the use of the word ‘terrorism’ in connection with the Libya attack.” OBAMA: “Right.” KROFT: “Do you believe that this was a terrorist attack?” OBAMA: “Well, it’s too early to know exactly how this came about, what group was involved, but obviously it was an attack on Americans. And we are going to be working with the Libyan government to make sure that we bring these folks to justice, one way or the other.”

Fool.
The attack wasn't described as an act of terrorism.
Obama didn't admit it when he was on Letterman, The View and with Steve Kroft of 60 Minutes on Sept. 12 he acknowledged he purposely avoided the using the word terrorism:
KROFT: Mr. President, this morning you went out of your way to avoid the use of the word terrorism in connection with the Libya attack.
OBAMA: Right.
KROFT: Do you believe that this was a terrorist attack?
OBAMA: Well, its too early to know exactly how this came about, what group was involved, but obviously it was an attack on Americans. And we are going to be working with the Libyan government to make sure that we bring these folks to justice, one way or the other.
Eight days later, on Sept. 20, Obama was asked at a Univision town hall whether Benghazi was a terrorist attack related to al-Qaeda, after White House spokesman Jay Carney told reporters that it is self-evident that what happened in Benghazi was a terrorist attack.
QUESTION: We have reports that the White House said today that the attacks in Libya were a terrorist attack. Do you have information indicating that it was Iran, or al-Qaeda was behind organizing the protests?
OBAMA: Well, were still doing an investigation, and there are going to be different circumstances in different countries. And so I dont want to speak to something until we have all the information. What we do know is that the natural protests that arose because of the outrage over the video were used as an excuse by extremists to see if they can also directly harm U.S. interests.
Finally, during an interview on ABCs The View on Sept. 25, Obama appeared to refuse to say it was a terrorist attack:
QUESTION: It was reported that people just went crazy and wild because of this anti-Muslim movie -- or anti-Muhammad, I guess, movie. But then I heard Hillary Clinton say that it was an act of terrorism. Is it? What do you say?
OBAMA: We are still doing an investigation. There is no doubt that the kind of weapons that were used, the ongoing assault, that it wasnt just a mob action. Now, we dont have all the information yet so we are still gathering.
Obama?s claim he called Benghazi an ?act of terrorism? - The Washington Post
What a bunch of idiots.
Watch the speech for yourself. It's on You Tube.
He clearly called it terrorism. For all that it matters.
Man, you guys are absolutely destroying any credibility you may have had by trying to spin otherwise.
And trying to make an issue out of it - I'm just giving it to you straight - you look stupid.

It will not matter that there is video and audio of the President calling Benghazi an "act of terror"....they will pretend it doesn't exist because it doesn't fit their scenario.
The OP still believes a video caused BenGhazi...but dont worry, he's a pussy and wont return to the thread

And what evidence do you have that proves the video that inspired protests,riots and deaths throughout the Muslim world was not the movtivating factor in the attacks on the American Consulate and the CIA Annex?

How is this for evidence?
Democrats and Bill Ayers claim terrorism is just property damage.
