    Liz Cheney was on the same ABC Sunday show goose-stepping the Party Line backing up her Mitt. (were Coulter, Malkin, Ingraham not available?). Cheney said:

    CHENEY: I think he [Romney] did get it right. I think that actually the statement this week that should have received more criticism and attention was the president’s, when the president went into the Rose Garden 24 hours after the Cairo embassy attack, rightly, of course, condemned the killing of our ambassador in Libya, failed to even mention the Cairo attack. And, you know, I think that — that in a situation in which an embassy has been attacked, the flag’s been ripped down, the Al Qaida flag has been flown, that America’s president not to even mention it clearly sends a signal to radicals across the region.

    And, you know, I would disagree with George [Will] to the extent that we’ve now had three-and-a-half years of Obama policy, and it looks an awful lot like, whether you’re talking about the Mexico City speech in 2009, the Cairo speech in 2009, the extent to which he’s been apologizing for America, he’s abandoned some of our key allies, like Israel, Poland, Czechoslovakia, he’s attempted to appease our enemies, the Iranians, for example, the Russians. He’s now getting ready, as we watch these scenes unfold on the air, to slash our defense. And the defense sequestration includes over $120 billion for embassy security. And so the president himself’s got a terrible record on national security. And it’s clearly something that Governor Romney ought rightly to be pushing.

    Where does Liz get all of her hate? But I guess the apple doesn’t fall far from the Cheney tree.

    Romney rushed to the microphone during the Libya siege to try and score “foreign policy” points because he knows how weak he is on FP. But in so doing, jumped the gun, spouted off about events that were still unfolding, and was rightly criticized for it.

    Demon-spawn Cheney not only defends Romney’s response, but is criticizing Obama for not doing the same thing (commenting on Cairo as events were still unfolding). One reason why Liz will never be lead Campaign Adviser to a presidential candidate.

    And really… “Czechoslovakia”, Liz?

    Agree completely about getting banners/headlines correct. As you say, many, unfortunately, only use them to confirm their already-held beliefs without digging further. Sadly, this sensationalism has been occurring on some left-leaning sites as well. We need to call it out whenever it occurs.

    We are now in the Jewish High Holidays beginning with Jewish New Year 5773 which first is a time of of reconciliation, APOLOGIZING face-to-face to those we have hurt/slighted by word or deed. Next week Jews atone for their sins on Yom Kippur. Can’t help but notice that Netanyahu appears to be against reconciliation and Mitt Romney is against apologizing for ANYTHING. In fact the current GOP meme is that Obama is weak on foreign policy because of all of his “apologies” which of course is another BIG LIE. Our President has issued a Rosh Hashannah greeting:
