Jon Stewart carrying water for the GOP yet again.

38. Eh ...

I LOVE this president and 95% of what the media wants to be critical of him is BS.

But, they absolutely botched the Libya situation.

It was CLEAR it was a planned and coordinated attack at the time. Rachel Maddow did an EXCELLENT piece the day after really breaking it down, in more detail than anyone since.

All they had to do was just hold tight, and united, to saying, "Here the FACTS, this happened and this happened" while not committing either way as to whether it was a terrorist attack or not. Simply say, we want to make sure we have all the information and are able to be as confident in possible in what happened before we speak as to any kind of motivations for the attack.

But, they came out immediately saying it was just an extension of the protests.

They had to know it was a coordinated attack and the moment ANYONE spoke for the administration in saying otherwise was a problem. I don't know their motivation, but because they did this, it is reasonable to speculate that it was for political reasons to not admin to a "terrorist attack" on the 9-11 anniversary.

They don't have to call it that, but they should have not said ANYTHING about WHAT it was until they know for sure and then said it was a planned attack, because it was.

You could tell Stewart wasn't loving it, but it was a botch by the this admin, and fair game.
