This is one instance, and has now become the de facto talking point on Libya, even though it is demonstrably false, the implication being, The Big Lie (if you repeat a lie often enough, people will begin to accept it as true, factual) is now the official version of history.
I've seen this being done this morning on TV, Fox, no less, as Leftists seek to transform the original narrative into something that bears no resemblance to what actually transpired, and indeed, has no basis in reality.
We'll see how Romney handles Mr. Tough Guy Bob Scheiffer Monday night, but his attitude towards Obama should be, “take no prisoners”. Cut him no slack. Remind the Debate's viewership that his Presidential election is for nothing less than the soul of the nation.
And if this moderator attempts to interject himself into affairs on the stage that properly belong to only the participants themselves, Romney should immediately put him in his place.
It's not for nothing vast segments of American society view the Fourth Estate with a jaundiced eye.
No matter how he cuts it, the MSM is NOT going to help him at all.
I ask you, what's the downside of this avenue of attack?
CA....
It’s tough. If Romney unloads on Schieffer, then Schieffer gains sympathy (especially from women, key voting bloc) and Obama would come back with a canned defense. Romney would look mean, picking on a little guy and Obama would look gallant.
He might question time allocation occasionally without getting presonal, or insist on agreed-to procedure. other than that he has to maintain his cool. Romney is on a roll—he must not blow it now.
