Here's the video link to that portion of the show

Obama mentioned the offensive video, that it caused offense in much of the Muslim world.

But then he said, and I quote, "But what also happened was that extremists and terrorists used this as an excuse to attack a variety of our embassies, including the consulate in Libya."

Like he said in the first press conference the day after it happened (which the RW ignores), where he called it "terrorism".
That still is not correct. The terrorists didn't use the video as an excuse to attack. This attack had been planned for a long time. It was the anniversary of 9/11. The video had absolutely nothing to do with the attack.
