Latest updates on US consulate attack in Libya

"I'm outraged by the attacks on American diplomatic missions in Libya and Egypt," the Republican presidential candidate said in a statement.

"It's disgraceful that the Obama administration's first response was not to condemn attacks on our diplomatic missions, but to sympathise with those who waged the attacks."

The Obama campaign quickly fired back, with spokesman Ben LaBolt accusing Romney of launching a "political attack" on a day of tragedy.

"We are shocked that, at a time when the United States of America is confronting the tragic death of one of our diplomatic officers in Libya, Governor Romney would choose to launch a political attack," he said.


HONEY sez: Yo, Barry, that wasn't a political attack. It was an American presidential candidate telling you that you are a DISGRACE AND A DEADLY EMBARRASSMENT!!! Now enjoy your trip to Las Vegas.
