Libya-Gate

[Riot]

So, have any of the screaming monkeys of the right wing, like Faux, trying to inflame nothing into something, yet noticed what everyone else has - that the day after this happened, the President talked about it being terrorism?

No, huh?

Just ignoring that part of reality in search of a good conspiracy theory?

A week after it happened, Obama was on the Late Show blaming it on the video.

No he did not. He blamed it on "extremists and terrorists".

Here's the video link to that portion of the show
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...WSrl9eqMk&NR=1

Obama mentioned the offensive video, that it caused offense in much of the Muslim world.

But then he said, and I quote, "But what also happened was that extremists and terrorists used this as an excuse to attack a variety of our embassies, including the consulate in Libya."

Like he said in the first press conference the day after it happened (which the RW ignores), where he called it "terrorism".

That still is not correct. The terrorists didn't use the video as an excuse to attack. This attack had been planned for a long time. It was the anniversary of 9/11. The video had absolutely nothing to do with the attack.

There was NO PROTEST at all at the consulate.

Now they're trying to deflect it to Hillary and the lack of security ignoring the fact it took Obama several weeks to recognize it as a planned terror attack. Even in front of the UN he blamed the video.

Re-writing history at its best. It's the GOP and Fox's fault.

Geeshus effing cripes, they are not trying to "deflect" anything. This is manufactured outrage from the right, trying to scapegoat in excess of the facts. Your assumptions that you've posted in this thread, Dell, are the perfect example of it. You have one foot in non-reality and the other on a banana peel. Absurd and ridiculous, and most of thinking America is sick of this shi.at.

The Other Sept. 11

Blame Obama for four deaths in Libya. But don’t blame Bush for nearly 3,000 deaths in New York



The president was warned of an impending threat of terrorism. He failed to act. The attack came, Americans died, and now the administration is covering up the truth.


That’s what Republicans are arguing in 2012. Which is pretty funny, if you don’t count the dead Americans, because it’s the opposite of what the GOP said 10 years ago. Back then, the conspiracy theories and the 20/20 hindsight were about the original 9/11 attacks. And the Republican Party line was that anyone who accused the president of neglect or deceit was unpatriotic.


Jus sayin...

He didn't say they used the video as an excuse to attack. The inference - if you listen to it - is that the mobs were the excuse to attack.

Geeshus - the President said the next day it was "terrorists". He said, above, "it was terrorists".

I'm tired of the outright lies about this president (not you, Rupert, but like the USA Today quote, the RWNJ forgetting everything the administration first said about this attack in favor of creating ridiculous conspiracy, etc)
