Musings of an odd Art History student.

• OBAMA: Secretary Clinton has done an extraordinary job. But she works for me. I'm the president and I'm always responsible, and that's why nobody's more interested in finding out exactly what happened than I do. The day after the attack, governor, I stood in the Rose Garden and I told the American people in the world that we are going to find out exactly what happened. That this was an act of terror and I also said that we're going to hunt down those who committed this crime. And then a few days later, I was there greeting the caskets coming into Andrews Air Force Base and grieving with the families. And the suggestion that anybody in my team, whether the Secretary of State, our U.N. Ambassador, anybody on my team would play politics or mislead when we've lost four of our own, governor, is offensive. That's not what we do. That's not what I do as president, that's not what I do as Commander in Chief.
• CROWLEY: Governor, if you want to respond...
• ROMNEY: Yes, I -
• CROWLEY: ... quickly to this please.
• ROMNEY: I - I think interesting the president just said something which - which is that on the day after the attack he went into the Rose Garden and said that this was an act of terror.
• OBAMA: That's what I said.
• ROMNEY: You said in the Rose Garden the day after the attack, it was an act of terror. It was not a spontaneous demonstration, is that what you're saying?
• OBAMA: Please proceed governor.
• ROMNEY: I want to make sure we get that for the record because it took the president 14 days before he called the attack in Benghazi an act of terror.
• OBAMA: Get the transcript.
• CROWLEY: He did in fact, sir. So let me - let me call it an act of terror...
• OBAMA: Can you say that a little louder, Candy?
• CROWLEY: He - he did call it an act of terror.
