At the end of the day, this won’t matter. This election is still about the economy.
If things now start to go further out of control in the Middle East, national security and foreign policy will become an important election issue.
The disgusting pigs on MSNBC have been blaming Romney all day. I’m not sure what they’re blaming him for, but they’re certainly exercized about something.
If the democrat controlled MSM get away with the usual diversion/deflection bullsh*t this time they will have completed our transition to a single party state, because there is no way another party can effectively campaign against them.
I think Mittens finally taking the gloves off ... that’s a good thing. I don’t think they successfully “spun” this one and personally, I think the press loses this round.
Yes...and that will be to Obama’s disadvantage.

Instead of asking the Lazy Boy President why our embassies in the Middle East weren’t on full alert on 9/11? Or how he could have been fooled so thoroughly by the Muslim Brotherhood?
The only people who see Romney’s comments as a gaffe are the idiots in the media and inside the beltway. And as krauthammer says they can go to hell!
It is about damn time someone stands up for America instead of bending over.
The media wouldn’t be doing this unless they were getting money. Even ideologues wouldn’t try to make excuses for such a grand failure. They’re bought.
“continuing efforts”? Who? Examples?
I’m wondering if this is Lavon Affair Redux.
Those “continuing efforts” to upset the Muslims- wouldn’t that qualify as ‘agitprop’? As with the Danish cartoons, they had to have their noses rubbed in it, for quite a while, egged on, before they predictably got beastly. Hmmmm. Agitprop in service of US going after Iran? All of a piece? I wonder ...
I do NOT think the US should apologize! I DO think we need a show of force- and use it, but, let’s take a look around.
Look up “Lavon Affair” and while you’re at it, look up USS Liberty/Pres. Johnson. Certainly gives one pause.
Obama spends a week bragging that he killed Osama. People attack a consulate wearing “I am Osama” T-shirts”. Blame for incident goes to some You Tube clip. Am I crazy?
If one were to quantify it in dollars, I wonder what the MSM support of liberals/democrats would be worth in campaign contributions/support. I’d say easily over a billion. An additive effect is how the average non-informed person out there looks to the media as a source of truth, without question. It’s a real ‘lose-lose’ situation for Republicans and anyone who isn’t a liberal... One which must be overcome during each and every election. It’s a wonder the democrats have ever lost a national election.
I was thinking that too, until this AM when I heard our ambassador had been killed.
Now it is about way more than money.
Now it is really about getting rid of Obama, our economy MIGHT survive 4 more years of him, but the free world will not.
And now I am really going to try and do more for Romney, I suggest we all do the same.
If we let the media defeat Romney and re-install their false god Obama, well, we’ll really just stink if we do that.
THESE PEOPLE MUST BE CRUSHED!!
I was in a red rage today, I haven’t been this angry in a long, long time, and I get angry pretty easily.
When I heard that audio of those colluding MSMers, I could have had a stroke.
THIS CANNOT STAND!!
I sent Mitt Romney’s campaign a thank you note via e-mail for how Romney spoke out against the Cairo statement (and by extension Obama’s administration.)
I told him middle American gets it. It’s the Beltway boys and MSM media who are pushing their own agendas.
If denouncing our government’s bowing to the demands of Islam above the freedom of speech of Americans is “a Romney gaffe”, I hope Romney keeps making them.
The “Obamabot” media is in full self-destruct mode!!! They are making total fools out of themselves in front of the American people. Mitt Romney, keep the guns blazing on all fronts. Millions of us conservatives have your back!!! The Tea Party will sweep you and Paul Ryan into office, just as we won the House in 2010!!! Obama is toast!!!!
