And now: CNN walks back false “act of terror” fact check

[Rationalist]

Twitchy told you immediately during tonight’s second presidential debate that President Barack Obama and CNN debate moderator Candy Crowley falsely characterized his Rose Garden statement about Benghazi in front of an audience of millions.

Forceful pushback from social media and the Romney camp has CNN on the run.

Not quite...

Some of Obama’s critics have flat out denied that Obama referred to the Benghazi attack as an act of terrorism the morning after it occurred. Others have suggested Obama may have been referring to the September 11, 2001 attacks in New York and D.C.

But two days later, Obama repeated his statements less ambiguously.

“So what I want all of you to know is that we are going to bring those who killed our fellow Americans to justice,” he said on September 13. “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.”

Romney’s claim, echoed by scores of conservatives and GOP critics, that Obama waited two weeks to call the attack an act of terrorism is incorrect

Obama and Crowley were correct...Romney and all the howling wingers are wrong....and that includes Faux News.

It is just as stupid. It is obvious that the WH is looking into what went wrong and hopefully will make changes and have made some changes so this does not happen agin in these volatile areas, or at least this ii what both Clinton and Obama have stated. Romney stated in the same 47% meeting behind closed doors that he would capitalize on any foreign policy crisis that occurred in his run to the Presidency and that is exactly what he is trying to do. It is shameful.

Obama's incompetence is an issue.

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.
