How Mitt Romney’s Latest Attack On Libya Is Falling Apart

Fox Admits Libya Attack May Have Been Caused By Anti-Muslim Video

By Hayes Brown on Oct 20, 2012 at 9:59 am

The right-wing is beginning to reverse itself on insisting that a anti-Muslim YouTube video had nothing to do with the attack on a U.S. diplomatic mission in Libya. Republicans and Fox News have scorned the Obama administration for weeks for initial statements that the assault in Benghazi, that took the life of Ambassador Chris Stevens, was an outgrowth of a protest sparked by this video.

Fox’s Geraldo Rivera went against that narrative on Friday. After Fox and Friends host Steve Doocy once again mocked the notion that the video was an impetus for the attack, Rivera instead presented the idea that it was in fact both a reaction to the video and a terrorist attack.

The hosts quickly attempted to pull Rivera back on-message after he completed explaining his theory, but couldn’t persuade him to drop it completely.

To Republicans, see, 3,000 dead Americans in an attack on our shore under a GOP President was just one of those things that no one could have foreseen ("Bin Laden Determined To Attack In US" memo in August being a non-issue of course). And 4,000 dead Americans and billions and billions of dollars wasted in Iraq (money we borrowed) is just one of those things- how could a GOP President possibly know there were no weapons of mass destruction? How could we possibly expect him to do due diligence and not just go with what he wished was true?

But an attack on our embassy under a Democratic President? Well, clearly that is the personal fault of the Democratic President, see! Because shut up, that's why.

The difference being, in the weeks after 9/11, when the GOP Administration was running around trying to figure out what happened, you didn't hear Democratic members of Congress saying anything resembling the crap the GOP is now spouting. Because pulling together as a nation is only for when there is a Republican in office.

Here's what Reagan and Bush had to say in 1980, after the failed rescue attempt for the hostages in Iran:

Reagan: "This is the time for us as a nation and a people to stand united."

HW Bush: "I unequivocally support the president of the United States — no ifs, ands or buts — and it certainly is not a time to try to go one-up politically. He made a difficult, courageous decision.”

What a difference 30 years makes for the GOP. Once, they understood it was American first, Republican second. Not anymore.

Nobody said the attack was Obama's fault. What people are saying is that the State Deptartment did a horrible job in protecting the embassy. Granted even if they had armed guards, the attack may have still been successful. But you at least want to give your people a chance. Having unarmed guards is astounding. That is just complete incompetence.

The other thing that people are complaining about is Obama's lack of truthfulness after the fact.

True. It's sad. I've watched my lifetime party self-destruct and become political poison. Former shell of itself.

The Minority Leader of the senate announces his first and main priority is to undermine the newly elected President of the United States. Pathetic. An international embarrassment.

The right-wing is beginning to reverse itself? Geraldo has been a democrat his entire life. He's not a right-winger.

[dellinger63]

The fact a consulate was guarded by guards, hired by a British Company, armed with flashlights and batons is all anyone needs to know.

Job outsourcing at its best.

When Hillary said she was taking responsiblity who knew it was for a job well done.

Couple more bumps in the road to go.

Really? I've always assumed he was a republican..At best he's a rightie who uses his heritage to pretend he's a Democrat to get ratings.

How many elite soldiers have died during "peacetime" under Obama, Genuine Chump?

24 minimum by my count. The Braggart in Chief had to disclose who killed bin Laden to toot his own horn.

You can't have it both ways, scum hypocrites. You accept death if it fits your agenda.

I've watched Geraldo dating all the way back to when he was on 20/20. He's always been very liberal. I just did a search and it says that he considers himself to be a liberal republican. That is very surprising to me. Maybe he's gotten a little more conservative as he's gotten older. He is still pretty liberal on most issues.

Geraldo is nothing more than a Snooki only with a sheepskin.

How'd that Al Capone vault go?

With hired friendlies shooting over his head on purpose?

Ever see him boxing?

Comparing him to Snooki was insult to that poor girl come to think of it.
