Inode,
Just mentioning the word incidentally in the final sentences of the statement doesn't make the connection.
It has to be really frustrating for these libtards, that in their defense of Obama they don't have much to work with. Really, ONE mention of the word "terror" and everything's OK? Obama gets a pass for blaming the YouTube video for 9-10 days after the attack?

I get the notion that the White House, the State Dept., the CIA, and all the other agencies didn't want to jump to conclusions, and that they had to sort through a mountain of information and rumors. If that's the primary reason for covering up the terrorism angle, that they really wanted to be sure before shouting the T-word, then I'd be fine with it.

But if they really wanted to be sure, they wouldn't have jumped to conclusions and blamed the riots that were ignited by some video on the Internet. That's the key here. They had to say something, anything that would make the attack look like another case of "shit happens in the Middle East."

they subsequently changed the story -- which is where the REAL lie occurred. AFTER that statement, the word "terrorism" was dropped from the narrative.

That's the "scandal"? Wow...shocking...
