    Was this post in response to mine? If so, note I had written the following: "Finally, when it came to Libya, we played an active role in the overthrow of that regime."

    Didn't you talk about a "smirk" on Romney's face?

    The rest of your post is your usual pile of steaming strawmen. Kudos for not bring up homophobia, though.

    Failures such as this can only be criticized when Bush is President.

    With Obama, the blame only applies to Romney for daring to point out the colossal fuck-ups in Egypt and Libya.

    Good God, dude. I started reading this thread and had to stop on page 2. These people are killing people and blaming America for some stupid youtube video and somehow people like you find a way to blame Obama and make this political. I don't know who's acting dumber, you or the rioters - both have some serious misguided hate. I don't even like Obama but fuck, this is pathetic.

    Yes, actually, I did mention Romney's smirk. OK, so even if you want to claim the embassy & consulate attacks are entirely Obama's fault and he should be impeached and strung up by the balls, explain the facial expressions in Romney's press conference. Numerous photos were shot so it was not one unscripted second. Smirking, grinning. Tell me, oh wise ones, what sort of person grins over the death of an ambassador and 3 other Americans and possibly up to 10 Libyans?

    Yes, PapaG, attack the poster. MSNBC simply did not blame Romney for the attacks. Did not happen. Period. So ignore facts because nasty comments are so much easier.

    I watched the press conference, and I know what you mean. It bothered me, too. However, if you watch Gov. Romney often, that wasn't really a smirk, that was his "go to" expression whenever he's not talking and there are cameras on. It wasn't him expressing any kind of pleasure over the incident.

    When his film has directly lead to the looting of government property and the deaths of government officials, he becomes the governments business.

    He shouldn't have been outed. Like it or not, our government's first responsibility is to protect its people. It failed in Libya, but hopefully this filmmaker won't be killed.

    Also, several news outlets have quoted a Libyan deputy interior minister which said this film was a smokescreen for a planned terrorist attack on that embassy in Benghazi.
