Who denied "enhanced security and why" in Libya?" Obama asked. President says he ordered beef up of security after attack but so far doesn't answer the question and attack Romney's criticism of his handling of the tragedy.. Romney should pounce. But the fact remains that both parties presided over cuts in diplomatic security.
Obama: "I'm the one who has to greet those coffins when they come home. You know I mean what I say."
“I am ultimately responsible for what’s taking place there," Obama says of Libya. "Because these are my folks.”
Obama largely saying the buck stops with him, knows the diplomats. Takes credit for ending war in Iraq (which is debatable), killing Bin Laden. Hits Romney for putting out a press release during the Libya attacks
Obama hits Romney: "You don't turn national security into a political issue. Certainly not when it's happening."
RT @GlynnMacN: "We were sitting around talking about Libya..." #Mineola
Obama: "When folks mess with Americans we go after them."
"When folks mess with Americans, we go after them," Obama says.
Asking Obama about Libya is like asking Romney about pay equity. He's got a bad set of facts.
