"Obama’s claim he called Benghazi an ‘act of terrorism’"
Washington Post 06:00 AM ET, 05/14/2013 (In which the ueber-liberal
WaPo awarded Obama 4 pinnochios for his spin at deception)
“The day after it happened, I acknowledged that this was an act of
terrorism.”
— President Obama, remarks at a news conference, May 13, 2013
...In fact, as far as we can tell from combing through databases,
Monday was the first time the president himself referred to Benghazi
as an “act of terrorism.”....."
... President Obama said that he immediately told the American people
that the killing of the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans in
Libya “was an act of terror.” But now he says he called it “an act of
terrorism.”
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.”
— Obama, Rose Garden, Sept. 12
Whatever the reason, when given repeated opportunities to forthrightly
declare this was an “act of terrorism,” the president ducked the
question.
For instance, on Sept. 12, immediately after the Rose Garden statement
the day after the attack, Obama sat down with Steve Kroft of 60
Minutes and acknowledged he purposely avoided the using the word
“terrorism:”
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.”
KROFT: “Do you believe that this was a terrorist attack?”
OBAMA: “Well, it’s too early to know exactly how this came about, what
group was involved, but obviously it was an attack on Americans.
...In fact, as far as we can tell from combing through databases,
Monday was the first time the president himself referred to Benghazi
as an “act of terrorism.”....."
