Gingrich: Oops! C-Span Made Me DO IT: Obama Didn't Say The Thing I Freaked Out About

[kpete]

Yes, Gingrich was dumbfounded, and for good reason. After all, what's courteous about an aerial assault?

"Dropping bombs is not courteous it is combat," he tweeted a moment later. "Someone should ask the white house what President meant using the word courtesy this morning"

Problem was, Obama didn't actually say that — a realization Gingrich eventually came to about twenty minutes after he unleashed his initial criticism. Gingrich's explanation? Blame it on CSPAN.

"Correction, cspan transcribed President inaccurately and i used their version," he tweeted. "He said our pilots had courage not courtesy and that is true"
