The man (Kerry Ladka) who asked the question in the 2nd debate about the Libya attack, said later that President Obama came to him privately after the debate and said he had delayed calling the attack a "terrorist attack".

Mr. Obama definitely needs to get his story straight. Did he call it a terrorist attack within a day, as he claimed during the debate when cornered by Romney? Or did he delay doing that, as he said to the questioner shortly after the debate?

Inquiring minds are starting to lose interest in knowing, after realizing that no matter what he says about it now, he will say the opposite five minutes later.

Funniest part is where he tells the questioner that the reason he delayed, as to make sure he wasn't spreading "disinformation". In fact, he spent two weeks insisting (and getting other people to insist) that the attack was just a protest of a video - statements we now know were PURE "disinformation" (a polite word for "lying").

His attempts to preserve his "legacy" of having stopped Al Qaeda terrorism by killing bin Laden, is rapidly falling apart as U.S. embassies get bombed in coordinated attacks, formerly-inviolate U.S. ambassadors die, and people ask more and more pointed questions about what's going on.

Presidential debate: Libya questioner says Obama didn’t answer - Erik Wemple - The Washington Post

“After the debate, the president came over to me and spent about two minutes with me privately,” says the 61-year-old Ladka, who works at Global Telecom Supply in Mineola, N.Y. According to Ladka, Obama gave him ”more information about why he delayed calling the attack a terorist attack.”

However, he spent about two weeks holding off on using the full “terrorist” designation. The rationale for the delay, Obama explained to Ladka, was to make sure that the “intelligence he was acting on was real intelligence and not disinformation,” recalls Ladka.

As to Ladka’s question about who turned down the Benghazi security requests and why, Obama reportedly told him that “releasing the individual names of anyone in the State Department would really put them at risk,” Ladka says.

Obama evaded the question, no argument here. Why would he minutes later answer the question truthfully, to someone who obviously is upset about the incident. There is no logical explanation. Obama has nothing to gain and everything to lose from the alleged incident you reported. God gave you a brain, use it.

He would have been right to not definitively call it a terrorist attack on Sept 12th, until they had more info, a day or two later. But he never should have sent out Susan Rice to lie about it being a spontaneous protest over the movie.

That part of this makes sense, why would he confide to a stranger. It's a good policy to distrust the media at first blush.

Easy. The only times Obama is transparent is when he doesn't want to be. This is typical of all liars. In his mind he thinks he is hiding pertinent info. The reality is he is branding himself a guilty liar.

When can we call it Libyagate?

I sure hope you bought a ship load

Maybe you just don't know how to tell when Obama is lying......

It's easy, just watch his lips move.

Dick Cheney personally promised to send me the schematics for the explosives that were used to bring down the towers on 9/11. I gave him my email address and everything.
