| One of the presidential debate questioners told Fox News that President Obama came up to him afterward to clarify why he took so long to say the Libya consulate attack was a terror strike. Kerry Ladka, one of the last questioners at Tuesday night's town hall-style debate, said, "He [Obama] said he really wanted to take the time to be deliberate, to make sure he had all the information." During the debate, Obama noted that he referred to "acts of terror" the day after the Libya attack. However, it took the president and his advisers more than a week
|
Comments: So he sort of told Ladka the truth after the debate was over.
Ladka opined that he thought maybe Obie held back "for public consumption".

what a guy! Thousands heard his rose garden remarks and did not hear him say this was a terrorist act. How is he going to explain Rice and her many statements, Clinton's statement plus the advertisement paid for by Americans saying this was due to a film. Also, why hasn't the film maker been released. Lies, upon lies, upon lies!

Greta Van Susteren has it on her Gretawire:
This posting updates the GretaWire posting at 3:25pm.
My FNC colleage Sarah Courtney just spoke to Kerry Ladka (the man who asked the Libya question at last night’s Presidential debate.) I have highlighted in red text what I think odd — why did he pedal that video/protest story? The terrorism happened Sept 11…..and the President was pedaling it as late as Sept 18 on David Letterman and then September 25 at the UN. It is weird that he is saying that he wanted ‘all the information’ yet was going out with, at best, misinformation.

Hep me if I'm wrong here.
Did the USEmbasy in Egypt not appologize PRIOR to the Consulate attack?
How did THEY know it was a U-tube clip?
And they had argued with State Dept HQ about releasing the appology before they published it.
This part needs to come out on Monday also.

Kind of like Candy-baby clarified her "fact check" intrusion after the debate.
Maybe that's when we should be tuning in. Clearly honesty is not what we're getting in the real thing.

Re #14, the ambassador to Egypt was not in Cairo when the embassy there was attacked. She was in Washington, DC for four days. Her charge d'affairs is the one who released the "apology". It was this apology that prompted Mitt Romney's remarks which he put on hold until midnight because of the "nothing from either campaign on 9/11" agreement.

That apology by the ambassador's charge d'affaires was to the protestors for having offended them (with the video). This is what Mitt Romney objected to. It has become so twisted by O&Co that no one even remembers what it was about. Now it is just called "Romney politicking".

The attack in Benghazi came later the night of 9/11. 9:40 as I recall. That could have resulted in some complication re Mitt Romney's statement after the Cairo attack and apology .... the statement that was held for some hours, but surely was time stamped.

dumm kopf!
(I suspect the fellow was a bit awed by The President engaging him in a conversation??? Maybe he'll come to his senses, if he has any???)
Romney MUST lay out the entire scenario beginning with Charlene Lamb and others watching the attack "in real time" as the atrocity was in process.
If BO & Co., Inc. was so intent on "getting it right," "getting all the facts," why the heck did BO & Co., Inc. repeatedly utter the lie about the utube?
a rhetorical question here.

I'm confused even more so than usual by these changing stories. During the debate, assisted by Candy Crowley, the President insisted that, Yes, he had attributed the attacks to terrorism on Sept. 12 in the Rose Garden speech. Then he speaks to the questioner, and tells him that he held off attributing the attacks to terrorism because he wanted to get all the facts before speaking. Sounds to me as if he contradicted himself in his little one-on-one with the questioner.
I'm not stupid. What am I missing here? /SP/

This guy sounds perfectly normal until he says he will vote for the candidate that supports universal health care and doesn't cut Medicare. Of course if someone told him Obama cut $716 Billion from Medicare he wouldn't believe it so what's the point?

Gen. John Allen has been appointed special U.S. envoy on security issues in negotiations between Israel and the Palestinian Authority. He will not mediate between the parties; his work will almost exclusively involve contacts with Israel. Allen will deal with the U.S. position on Israeli security needs and the security arrangements that would accompany the establishment of a future Palestinian state. Senior U.S. and Israeli officials note that while U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel made the appointment it was coordinated with U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, who is leading the effort to restart Israeli-Palestinian negotiations.

Washington rumor has it that Obama wants to be U.N. Secretary General. There are several reasons that make that likely, and if it´s true, it throws new light on a lot of Obama´s oddities -- including his Royalty Bows, his Apology Tours, his Muslim Sellout, and the Benghazi Cover-Up. But first -- why would Obama be planning to become the chief of the U.N. before he has even finished his second term?

On Wednesday, Drummer Lee Rigby of the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers, a man who had served Queen and country honorably in the hell of Helmand Province in Afghanistan, emerged from his barracks on Wellington Street, named after the Duke thereof, in southeast London. Minutes later, he was hacked to death in broad daylight and in full view of onlookers by two men with machetes who crowed "Allahu Akbar!" as they dumped his carcass in the middle of the street like so much roadkill. As grotesque as this act of savagery was, the aftermath was even more unsettling

MARK LEVIN: So why didn´t Chairman Issa hold an investigative hearing a year ago? Why didn´t Chairman Camp, all Republicans, hold an investigative hearing a year ago, and all the other tripping over themselves right now? I´ll tell you why. Because the establishment Republicans, the RINO Republicans, despise the Tea Party. They despise the conservative movement. We exist to be managed, to be shuttled to the polling place, to vote for their candidates. The Karl Roves of the world, and all the rest of them. They fight us in the primaries, they fight us at the grassroots.

WASHINGTON —In a dramatic departure from existing White House procedures, President Obama requested today that his staff start cc’ing him on stuff. “Look, I know a lot of you think I’m really busy and you don’t want to bother me,” the President reportedly told his staff in an Oval Office meeting. “But cc me anyway. It’s good for me to keep up on what’s going on around here.” “It’s not good when I turn on the news and they’re talking about something at the White House and I’m like, whoa, when did that happen?”

Abuse Of Power: Any scandal investigation that expects a "Eureka!" moment, a White House e-mail, or Oval Office smoking gun will be misguided. In fact, the dots are already connected directly to the president. Barack Obama is not foolish enough to have a tape recording system hidden in his desk. And his administration staff are not careless enough to send one another incriminating e-mails. If the president was behind the IRS unlawfully harassing conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status, we can be sure the communications were all sotto voce and in persona, like any good Chicago political operator.

A Washington state Democrat is accusing Republicans of “throwing American infrastructure … under the bus” after a bridge collapse there this week. The portion of Interstate 5 in Washington that runs over the Skagit River collapsed on Thursday after a truck hit an overhead support structure, but Rep. Jim McDermott (D-Wash.) cited the incident in an interview as proof Republicans were blocking infrastructure investment to hurt President Obama politically. “Well, they have clearly spent the whole last five years trying to tear the president down, but they have done it by throwing the American infrastructure and
