Washington Post ^ | October 17, 2012 | AP

NEW YORK — Candy Crowley’s signature moment as moderator of Tuesday’s rough-and-tumble presidential debate came when she was called upon to referee a dispute over President Barack Obama’s description of the attack on the U.S. Consulate in Libya as an act of terror.

When Republican Mitt Romney questioned whether the president had done so, Crowley said, “He did, in fact, sir.”

Even CNN and the AP have called her out on her BS. It was despicable.

Where was she to defend Romney when Obama talked about the 1% solution? Why no instant fact checking then?

I guess the positive is that today everyone is focused on the lie the President told about the Libya attacks.

What a bizarre interpretation!! Crowley interrupted - interjecting herself into the debate - and called it for Obama - and she was wrong!

To those who watched it. Right now, the AP is not even mentioning the Crowley fellatio for Odumbo but those saw the scam live on TV, they know they made up their minds by then.

The Media’s natural instinct is to run cover for Obama.

Obama reminds me of the islamist jihadi fighters that use women for human shields , taking shots and hoping the U.S. troops will not shoot back because they have women to hide behind

She lied and assisted Obama in he debate then, surprisingly (NOT), she said she was incorrect after the debate. Millions watched her lie during the debate and a fraction of that when she said she was incorrect (lie) after the cameras were off.

A pig shouldn’t brag about instinct but rather overcome it.

Crowley's job was to run interference and prop up Obama.

Just like it became Hillary's job to mop up after Obama [and herself].....

Like before when it fell to Hillary [multiple times] to mop up after Bill, keeping the path forward open and a U.S. socialist government push on track.

It bears repeating.

Do not be mad at your laptop.

I’ve seen the NY Post and Orlando Sentinel sites leading with “Obama Goes on the Offensive.” It portrays a positive spin for Obama that is being repeated in most other outlets I’m sure.

In retrospect, Romney could have put this away tonight, but didn’t. Forcing a game 5.
