Optimal -- -- somewhat cold technical expression not optimal not going down too well this morning.
Joining the company is Republican strategist F Bollenbach Jeff -- want to -- one item of news to our coverage of Libya via.
This morning AP reports that the CIA station chief in Libya says that he reported to Washington DC within 24 hours of the attack.
That it was an attack that the -- links to militants with that attack.
So he reported that within 24 hours.
That was not reported by the president or the State Department also sometime -- and yet the president last night on Jon Stewart said.
All the information was out that when we got it.
That is a contradiction.
Is it gonna be exploited and used on Monday night in the debate.
It better being.
Within this administration from the top down has been in the business of denial of the war on terror.
Because in the business of denial of -- this isn't the first time this is the tradition this is a historic issue with the guys.
The Fort Hood massacre they couldn't bring themselves to acknowledge they still can't Islamic terror that was well -- violence I think that's right that's right that's it the underwear bomber -- the Times Square bomber you know it's never remember Eric Holder sitting there and in the committee refusing -- not to say Islamic terror.
These guys have complete you know his -- attitude about some.
Optimal the -- but do voters cast.
-- -- I didn't really care about what happened in Libya and who said want and when -- they can more about that all know jobs weak economy big debt which is.
They care more about the latter they care more about the jobs the economy but.
The truth is that should be exploited this -- the national tragedy it's national crisis its national outrage.
The entire mideast -- in flames.
Because of this president's policy all right now you'll guide your Republican yes Mitt Romney yes he didn't use this to his advantage much in the second debate he dropped the ball in -- Well.
I think Candy Crowley interrupted him any kind of lost momentum on that and the truth is he was kind of all eighteen to be that Barack Obama's you know sudden high dodging his indignation -- how dare you.
Question my commitment to this you know seem to throw him off but the truth of it is.
That he says he you know he really reserves as high -- for certain things for debates against Mitt Romney after criticizing Jews in the build homes in Jerusalem.
That get them all excited terrible doesn't not so -- -- -- -- -- -- Republican strategist thanks for joining -- again -- items is simply so thank you.
