I wonder whether the poster did that deliberately or is being duped by their media.
The poster (me) is well aware that the President cannot call claim to have called this a terrorist attack in the Rose Garden on the 12th, then go a show a mere few hours later and claim he doesn't know. In fact, we now know that they knew that evening. Furthermore, the President went on more shows days later, claiming similar.
If you think the most powerful man in the world doesn't know the details, I want some of what y'all have. There's no way the President checked out at 5:30 PM during an event like this. If he indeed did, y'all should be questioning his leadership capabilities.
Again, you are just reaching desperately for something to hold onto here. Why would the president lay down all his cards a day or two after the attack, before a full investigation into what had happened was complete? What a waste of time to even respond to you.

The most powerful man in the world didn't know that there were no WMD in Iraq. Despite a network of spies and satellites. He trusted the word of a few people who had an axe to grind with Saddam Hussein.
So yes, even The Most Powerful Man on Earth is subject to errors in information. Unless you want to admit that GWB lied to America. Your call, write back and tell us which it is.

In other words, one of our resident ranters totally mis-characterized the exchange. But he or she got me to waste time responding (along with several other suckers), so chalk it up as the ranter's victory.

So she's saying that Obama called it an act of terror in the Rose Garden and that he lied about it. Note the use of "fully admit"
This is exactly what I said in my previous post. Obama called it an "act of terror" but took two weeks to call it an "act of terrorism". If you think the difference of those two phrases is a "lie", you are pretty ridiculous.
To him, it seems distinctly different.
But, given that you are not him, you acknowledge that they are the same?
BTW, where is the evidence that Crowley had a transcript of the Rose Garden statement? Two different wingers were making that claim and no evidence has been presented.
AGAIN, this is what Obama said:
KROFT: “Mr. President, this morning you went out of your way to avoid the use of the word ‘terrorism’ in connection with the Libya attack.”
OBAMA: “Right.”
My opinion does not matter. Neither does yours. Obama says he avoided the use of the word terrorism in connection with the Libya attack on the 12th. Period. End of story.
