He was not duped by the CIA talking points, he was advancing a narrative before the thugs and dictators of the world that free speech can be more dangerous than Al Qaeda.
You must have missed where in his last speech on the world stage before his re-election he
vigorously defended free speech and did not suggest in any way that what happened in Benghazi was not an act of Terror.
"The attacks on our civilians in Benghazi were attacks on America,"
"There should be no doubt that we will be relentless in tracking down the killers and bringing them to justice."
"The strongest weapon against hateful speech is not repression it is more speech,"
"there is no speech that justifies mindless violence."
I know there are some who ask why we don't just ban such a video. The answer is enshrined in our laws: our Constitution protects the right to practice free speech. Here in the United States, countless publications provoke offense. Like me, the majority of Americans are Christian, and yet we do not ban blasphemy against our most sacred beliefs. Moreover, as President of our country, and Commander-in-Chief of our military, I accept that people are going to call me awful things every day, and I will always defend their right to do so]
And, you can't see that even though he doesn't indicate in any real way that the attack on americans was because of the video he had to address it because the muslim world (surprise) was in an uproar about it.
He defended free speech and lambasted the attack on Americans. GMAFB!
You folks are above and beyond ridiculous on this issue. But
pleasecarry on and continue to marginalize the conservative cause by beating this dead horse into submission.
