Obama, Like a Fart in a Phone Booth…

“Yesterday, four of these extraordinary Americans were killed in an attack on our diplomatic post in Benghazi.”

“The United States condemns in the strongest terms this outrageous and shocking attack.”

“Since our founding, the United States has been a nation that respects all faiths.  We reject all efforts to denigrate the religious beliefs of others.”

“But there is absolutely no justification to this type of senseless violence.  None.  The world must stand together to unequivocally reject these brutal acts.”

“And then last night, we learned the news of this attack in Benghazi.”

“Libyan security personnel fought back against the attackers alongside Americans.”

“No acts of terror will ever shake the resolve of this great nation, alter that character, or eclipse the light of the values that we stand for.  Today we mourn four more Americans who represent the very best of the United States of America.”

“But we also know that the lives these Americans led stand in stark contrast to those of their attackers.”

The above quotes are directly from the transcript of Obama’s Rose Garden Speech on Wednesday September 12th regarding the attack in Benghazi the night before and the quotes are in the order in which they were spoken.

The quotes are a complete listing of anything he said directly pertaining to any attacks.

Debate 2: Obama’s Desperation is Showing

I lost count last night, during the debate, of how many times Obama asked Moderator Candy Crowley to either change the topic or how many times she cut off Mitt Romney to change the topic.

Obama responded with the talking points conjured up by his campaign, trying to highlight a dismal 4 years. It came across like a guy putting lipstick on a pig.

Romney showed the pig for what it has been over the past 4 years by simply quoting facts.

“I think you know better. I think you know that these last four years haven’t been so good as the president just described and that you don’t feel like your confident that the next four years are going to be much better either.

I can tell you that if you were to elect President Obama, you know what you’re going to get. You’re going to get a repeat of the last four years. We just can’t afford four more years like the last four years.”

From there, Romney literally listed the litany of Obama failures over the last 4 years and Obama, for one of the few times during the debate, sat quietly.
