Candy Crawley Just Lied During The Debate To Help Obama

[auditor0007]

What a despicable display.

I can't remember when Obama said that the attacks were an act of terrorism. Weeks later he was still saying it was over a video. A spontaneous act.

Now the moderator lied for him and you could tell she was lying because she started stuttering.

A bold-faced lie to support Obama, and everyone saw it.

Why is it that you feel such a need to lie? She made a very clear statement that Obama had referred to the attack as an act of terrorism during his conference in the Rose Garden the day after the attack, which was 100% factual. If you were listening, she also went on to state that while Obama referred to it as an act of terrorism, his people did hem and haw over what actually happened and did blame it on the Mohammed video for the next two weeks.

The problem with most of you is that you have selective hearing.

My issue is that after he made that statement he backtracked and then put blame on the film. I can only assume that was because he didn't want to call it a terrorist attack so close to the election.

It reminds me of a soccer game with Mudwhistle...never once has a soccer player not think he was fouled by the opponent.

Mudwhistle having a bad day.

Team USA qualified for the World Cup last night so that should be good news. I'm sure it won't be. He's taken "The T's" place as the board crybaby/Internet tough guy.

No, the problem is I've been paying attention.

BTW, Crowley backtracked on her agreement with Obama. She said Romney was correct, he just was trapped by the wording used.

In other words Romney, not Obama was right. Obama was simply playing with the wording of his speech. A speech he rendered meaningless later.

Obama knew it was an Al-Qaeda terror attacked because he had real time info. He and his administration tried to hide it behind that youtube farce because the attack was an embarrassment to his failed foreign policy. This is his lie to the American people.

Biden, in his VP debate, first presented this lie blaming wrong info from US intelligence. But inconsistencies keep blowing holes in that lie that was being perpetuated by Obama and Hillary's State Department.

The next lie Obama will present in the next Presidential debate on foreign policy will be an exercise in damage control.

No, Obama Didn’t Call Benghazi “Act of Terror” in Speech

Behold, the new birtherism...

Indeed. The pathetic righwingnut retards are always grasping at straws but this bit of reality denial takes the cake. Did Obama label the attack on our consulate in Benghazi an "act of terror" as Romoney and the rightwing echo chamber of retards wants to deny? Yes, he did, on two occasions, on Sept 11th and Sept 13th, as the transcripts prove. Was the government also still investigating the attack and trying to determine if this attack was in some way connected to the widespread rioting and demonstrations over the offensive anti-Muslim video that had been occurring all over the region. Well of course they were. Only idiots jump to conclusions without checking. There were several initial reports out of Benghazi that said that gunmen attacked during a demonstration over the video. Check the BBC reports on the incident published on Sept 12th, 13th and 14th that talk about US officials already suspecting that terrorist groups were involved and Libyan officials saying that the attack happened during "an anti-US protest".

Libya attack: Obama vows justice for killed US envoy.
BBC
12 September 2012
(excerpts)
President Barack Obama has vowed to bring to justice those who carried out the attack that killed the US ambassador to Libya. Ambassador J Christopher Stevens died after gunmen stormed the consulate amid protests over an anti-Islamic film. US officials said Washington was investigating whether the attack was organised in advance, rather than a spontaneous assault sparked by demonstrations over the film. Officials told Reuters there were suspicions that a militia known as the Ansar al-Sharia brigade was involved in the attack. The group has denied the claim. They also cited reports suggesting al-Qaeda's north Africa-based affiliate, known as al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb, may have been involved, the news agency reports. The protests followed rallies in Cairo, where demonstrators angry at the film, called Innocence of Muslims, breached the walls of the US embassy and tore down the flag.


Libya attack: US to investigate Benghazi assault
BBC
13 September 2012
(excerpts)
The US is investigating whether the attack in Libya that killed the US ambassador and several other people was planned in advance, officials say. The assault had earlier been thought to have been a spontaneous reaction to protests over an anti-Islamic film. Armed men stormed the consulate in the city of Benghazi on Tuesday night. Officials have now said the attack was complex and professional, and reports suggest the perpetrators may have had links to jihadist groups. A senior US official quoted by AFP news agency said the Benghazi attackers appeared to have used the demonstrations as a pretext to staging an assault. "This was a complex attack," he told the news agency. "They seemed to have used this [protest] as an opportunity." US officials told Reuters news agency there were suspicions that a militia known as the Ansar al-Sharia brigade was responsible, although the group has denied the claim. They said there were also reports that al-Qaeda's north Africa-based affiliate, al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb, may have been involved, the news agency reports.

Investigators are trying to piece together exactly what happened during Tuesday's US consulate attack in the Libyan city of Benghazi. They are trying to establish whether the assault was planned or spontaneous. Libyan Deputy Interior Minister Wanis al-Sharif has told reporters he believes militants used an anti-US protest as cover for the attack, and may have had help from inside the country's security services.


Transcript Truthers: Conservatives Deny Obama Called Libya Attack An "Act Of Terror"
October 16, 2012
(excerpts)
During tonight's presidential debate, moderator Candy Crowley corrected Mitt Romney's false claim that President Obama did not refer to the September 11 attack on the American consulate in Benghazi, Libya as an act of terrorism the day after the attack. Crowley was right, and Romney was wrong: In his September 12 remarks, the president said: "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. Today we mourn four more Americans who represent the very best of the United States of America." Despite this, conservatives in the media are insisting that Obama never said that.

UPDATE 2: Obama also referred to the Benghazi attack as an "act of terror" while campaigning in Colorado on September 13:

"Let me say at the outset that obviously our hearts are heavy this week -- we had a tough day a couple of days ago, for four Americans were killed in an attack on our diplomatic post in Libya. Yesterday I had a chance to go over to the State Department to talk to friends and colleagues of those who were killed. And these were Americans who, like so many others, both in uniform and civilians, who serve in difficult and dangerous places all around the world to advance the interests and the values that we hold dear as Americans. And a lot of times their work goes unheralded, doesn't get a lot of attention, but it is vitally important. We enjoy our security and our liberty because of the sacrifices that they make. And they do an outstanding job every single day without a lot of fanfare. So what I want all of you to know is that we are going to bring those who killed our fellow Americans to justice. (Applause.) I want people around the world to hear me: To all those who would do us harm, no act of terror will go unpunished. It will not dim the light of the values that we proudly present to the rest of the world. No act of violence shakes the resolve of the United States of America.​

Read and understand your own posting. Then tell me why he said four more Americans? Four more than what? Of course his 'four more' remark is reference to 9-11-2001.

Irrelevant spin. The thread topic and the subject of much debate concerns the last Presidential debate and the fraudulent claim that Crawley lied about the plain fact that Obama had indeed referred to the Benghazi attack as an act of terror in his speech in the Rose Garden on Sept 11th. He referred to it as an "act of terror" again in a speech on Sept 13th.

There were reports coming out of Libya that indicated that the attack happened during an anti-US protest.

What we liberals have is the facts and the truth. What you rightwingnut retards have is lies and spin.

Try reading the BBC reports I just posted a couple of posts ago, you braindead partisan nitwit. The American officials knew about the possible terrorist link but the investigation was still going on because it had just happened. There were riots in other cities that were very directly caused by that offensive anti-Muslim video. There were reports from official Libyan sources that claimed that the gunmen used an anti-US protest to cover their attack. US officials who mentioned the video as a possible cause of the attack were correct as far as they knew at the time. There seemed to be a possible link at that time. Further investigation showed that it was clearly a planned terrorist attack. The only reason this is supposed to be some 'big deal' is because Romoney is trying to play politics with the issue and he got caught trying to distort the facts for political points.

Time line of lies!

Obama's Benghazi Lies - Home

Destroys Obama's case. It wasn't about a fucking terrorist attack, BUT the protest over our freedom of speech.

On the 13th he was talking about the protest when he said terrorized.

Susan Rice said on the 16th that this wasn't a pre-planned attack. LIES

On the 18th Obama went on the letterman show and blamed our first amendment for the attack. LIES!!!

If the terrorized was supposed to mean a terrorist attack. Well, Obama sure inserted his foot in his ass.

Clinton on the 21st was the first to say it was a Terrorist attack. SPIN!

Obama on the view on the 25th said it was about the fucking video! Spin some more!!!

Biden blatantly lied about Chris Stevens wanting more Security
The Fact Checker


“We weren’t told they wanted more security there. We did not know they wanted more security.”

— Biden, speaking of the U.S. diplomatic mission in Libya

Biden’s bold statement was directly contradicted by State Department officials just this week, in testimony before a congressional panel and in unclassified cables released by a congressional committee.

“All of us at post were in sync that we wanted these resources,” said Eric Nordstrom, the top regional security officer in Libya earlier this year. A Utah national guardsman who led a security team, Lt. Col. Andrew Wood, said: “We felt great frustration that those requests were ignored or just never met.”

So you can't answer why he went in front of the UN and state it was the film. Afterall.....the next day Obama knew that it was a terrorist attack.
I would watch the name calling....it really won't bode well for your rep count.
