To clear this up, he actually said "terror attack" in general sense but not directly on the Libya situation, even I remember that during the confusion on the debate. I also like the fact that Obama manned up and said he was responsible for the Libya situation, but look how long it took him, atleast over a month now. Hillary also took her responbility as well, after a month of trying to blame an online YouTube video. I'm so sad to see so much politically motivated things going on in this country, and Obama Administation were so smart to let things cool down before they took responsibility and a lot of pushing from the republicans also forced them to do so. I would like to know what you guys thing aswell.

He says terror attack now, but at the time, and yes they had the intel, for crying out loud, they had real time video of the embassy and new there was no protest. But he still went in front of the American people and lied. There is no excuse for even mentioning that stupid video, it had no bearing other than to divert attention. President Obama consistently lies to us, and expects us to believe it just because he said it. He seems to be amazed when he is questioned or not believed. wow.

laglen I wonder if he is just not used to being questioned. As President he has a lot of power and people listen to him and defer to his opinions and decisions. Perhaps he is not used to people challenging him after 4 years of being 'the most powerfu'...Now he is also responsible for mistakes and I doubt he is used to that either. He never ran a business and never deal with consequences...it's time for a change.

He did not say Benghazi was a terrorist attack until 14 after it. What he said in the rose garden was general speaking. He, for 14 days, kept saying it was not a terrorist attack. He lied his buns off. And the mediator, later on a TV program announced that she was wrong in what she said and the Romney was right.

Fatcat44 You are correct. I was disappointed that Crowley interferred. She failed to press Obama when he didn't answer the question..many see her as biased and it adds fuel to the 'left wing media bias' belief...

I heard he said in Rose Garden that day after the attacked in Bengahzi, that his administration will seek aggressively for those who responsible of those murders in the embassy compound to bring justice on their horrendous crimes. He doesn't classified it as an act of terror immediately, may be he can only say so after the investigation is complete. But some high ranking officials serve under his administration continue to claim it is the result of a spontaneous mass protest from a video flick in US that killed five US foreign service workers including the ambassador, they continue to make the same claims for several weeks even after the survivals said there is no protest in Benghazi on that anniversary of 9/11 day few days later. They may not have received the same classified report like the president did, so they continue to say it is the protest that killed the embassador.

moneymaka He was almost forced to admit the buck stops with him..especially after Hillary crawled under the bus for him. I really think Romney will do a better job. There is too much at stake to risk four more years of Obama...at least that is what I think
