And, Romney brings up Obama's comments to Putin that he would have more "flexibility" after the election. Oh come on Obama! Of course Romney thinks Al-Qaeda is a threat! President is being silly. The president seems to have a consistent policy of ambivalence. Ian Johnson says Fun Fact: Mohamed Morsi, the Egyptian president said "Amen" today, when attending prayers by an Imam who called on Allah to "destroy the Jews." Obama has declared that Morsi is neither an "ally" or an "enemy" of the US. Jeremy Grunert points out that Bush actually negotiated the Statuses of Forces agreement with Iraq, and so technically, he should get more credit than Obama for ending the war. Daniel O'Toole makes the good point that Romney seems pretty nervous he needs to answer the question more directly rather than just getting a bunch of talking points out quickly. Will Obama repeat his statement from the previous debate regarding his initial response to the attack in Libya? He did not, in fact, call it an "act of terror." Debate starts at WSJ Live talking heads still going at it? Man, they're letting me down.TV it is.
