Romney continued to say Obama “skipped Israel” on his “apology tour” and went on Middle Eastern TV and called the United States “dismissive and derisive.”

Obama was prepared for the frequent criticism.

“This has been probably the biggest whopper that's been told during the course of this campaign,” he said.

"If we're going to talk about trips that we've taken," Obama said, "when I was a candidate for office, first trip I took was to visit our troops. And when I went to Israel as a candidate, I didn’t take donors. I didn’t attend fundraisers ... I went to ... the Holocaust museum there to remind myself of the nature of evil and why our bond with Israel will be unbreakable.”
