Obama And Crowley Set Up Romney At Debate

(National Review Online) An old-time political hand in D.C., whom I know and who has advised and worked on many campaigns, is utterly convinced that the exchange was a setup of Romney by the Obama campaign and Crowley.

I agree, based on the principle all lawyers know: never ask a question in the courtroom to which you don’t know the answer.
After Romney argued that it took weeks for the Obama administration to admit that terrorism was involved, Obama claimed he had mentioned it the day after the attack, looked at Crowley, and asked her to “get the transcript.” Whereupon Crowley immediately responded “he [Obama] did in fact. So let me call it an act of terror.”

Obama, if he is as good a lawyer as he seems to believe, would not have asked Crowley that question unless he was confident that of her answer. And how did she know what “transcript” Obama had in mind?

Crowley’s safe, indeed normal answer, should have been something like: “I am just the moderator here” or “I don’t have the transcript in front of me.” Instead, Crowley intervened to back up Obama’s accounting of the facts.

The only way to explain this is that the Obama campaign must have prepped Crowley before the debate.

  1. The whole farce was a no brainer. Obama needed a backer minus his teleprompter so Crowley was it. He cannot and will not be able to defend his treasonous,lying,corrupt record. His record is his albatross and the freeloaders he's fostered via his failed economic policies are a double albatross.

  2. I don't think so . Crowley after confirming Obama's point , of which she was biased towards him , immediately realized her mistake and threw a bone to Romney verifying the Obama cover up for the days after the killings by mentioning the video story. I think even though she is an Obama supporter , in retrospect , she would have kept her mouth shut as her input has only extended the Libya story and weakened Obama's credibility with the undecided voters. Crowley unwittingly helped Romney and extended the Libyan disaster that Obma wanted forgotten.

    1. She didn't do that until the next day after numerous fact checkers called her on it.

  3. It was shared over the internet that Obama wanted to make sure the moderator did not let the Governor speak longer then the allowed minutes. However, Romney is not afraid of this and makes sure he can get his thoughts in regardless. As for the video it was also mentioned that the video was only viewed about a 100 times before the outbreak. The latest news is now they are saying that the Ambassador was supposed to have been kidnapped so our president could free him right before the election day. I think something backfired. However, Eric Holder is still in office regarding the fast and furious so I am sure this will blow over also. But, if they should charge him on this then we would have Biden for four years.
