Jim, this is the fundamental problem with your thinking.
It didn't happen.
During the day on Tuesday the embassy in Cairo
independently put out a statement condemning the video
before any violence began.
That night, Romney issues an embargoed statement (to be released after the 9/11 truce ironically enough) attacking the administration with "It's disgraceful that the Obama Administration's first response was not to condemn attacks on our diplomatic missions, but to sympathize with those who waged the attacks,".
Before the Romeny's backwards statement was even issued to the press, the Whitehouse had already disavowed the embassy comment. The attack on Obama by Romney and the GOP is either grossly inept or worse an intentional manipulation of an event where Americans serving their country have died.
And on 9/11 of all days
How you can't see that as anything but shameful is beyond me.
