PHOENIX, October 16, 2012 — During tonight’s presidential town hall debate
between Gov. Mitt Romney and President Barack Obama, an audience member
asked the president, "We were sitting around talking about Libya, and we
were reading and became aware of reports that the State Department refused
extra security for our embassy in Benghazi, Libya, prior to the attacks that
killed four Americans. Who was it that denied enhanced security and why?"
Obama gave a lengthy response which never addressed the question. During his
rebuttal Romney said, “I think it’s interesting, the president just said
something which is that the day after the attack, he went into the Rose
Garden and said that this is was an act of terror?
"It was not a spontaneous demonstration; is that what you’re saying?”
“Please proceed, governor,” Obama replied.
Romney looked at him with consternation as the president didn’t say whether
he called the Libya attack an act of terrorism on September 12.
To much surprise, debate moderator Candy Crowley interjected herself into
the conversation and said that the president did in fact call it a terrorist
attack during the Rose Garden speech, thereby shielding the president from
embarrassment over the question.
“He did in fact say it was an act of terror,” Candy Crowley said to Gov.
Romney.
A review of the official transcript on the White House website and the video
from the Rose Garden address shows that not once did the president call the
Benghazi attack a "terror attack." He used the word "terror" exactly once,
late in his address:
“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.” From
the context, it was clear that his reference to "terror" was general. Not
once did he apply that characterization to Benghazi.
“I strongly condemn the outrageous attack on our diplomatic facility in
Benghazi, which took the lives of four Americans, including Ambassador Chris
Stevens. Right now, the American people have the families of those we lost
in our thoughts and prayers. They exemplified America's commitment to
freedom, justice, and partnership with nations and people around the globe,
and stand in stark contrast to those who callously took their lives,” said
the president during his address.
Crowley's intervention on Obama's behalf was a blatant display of mainstream
media bias. She incorrectly declared that Obama called Benghazi "an act of
terror." As a member of the media and as the debate moderator, should not
have protected the president nor thrown him a lifeline. She should not have
inserted her own interpretation of Obama's September 12 remarks to suit his
immediate need.
Crowley lied to protect the president, becoming another collaborator in the
Obama-Libya coverup.
UPdate (12:09 am): Fox News Sean Hannity just announced that Candy Crowley
said she got it "wrong" and that the President did not refer to Benghazi as
a terror or terroist attack.
