As Twitchy reported, lapdogs were sitting up and begging for bones this morning at Romney’s presser on the embassy attacks.

But, it gets even worse. You see, Journalists for Obama ™ were far too busy trying to cover for The One to actually ask any foreign policy questions at the foreign policy presser.

The Insane MSM Questions Romney Faced at Presser: http://t.co/bdWsIwMY It's almost like they don't care about a U.S. ambassador's murder. — Jim Treacher (@jtLOL) September 12, 2012

Why the MSM probably doesn't deserve to ask Romney any questions: http://t.co/YFuAg1qu — Starz and Strypz (@StarzandStrypz) September 12, 2012

NRO’s Trinko destroys the press on this. Here are just a few of the questions asked by “real journalists.”

1. Reporter brings up that Romney had a “toughly worded statement last night,” and asks, “Do you regret the tone at all given what we know now?” 2. “Do you think, though, coming so soon after the events really had unfolded over night was appropriate, to be weighing in on this as this crisis was unfolding in real time?” Follow-up: “What did the White House do wrong then, Gov. Romney, if they put out a statement saying they disagreed with it?” 3. “The world is watching. Isn’t this itself a mixed signal when you criticize the administration at a time that Americans are being killed? Shouldn’t politics stop for this?”

Unreal.

Yet, of course, the Smarty Pantsers are trying to tell us that Romney’s statement is the problem, not the egregious, and deadly, attacks on American embassies. Nor Obama’s failed policy of appeasement and laser-like focus on campaigning.

to recap, Obama has been skipping his intelligence briefings, the US knew this attack was coming, but this is all Romney's fault. got it. — Conn Carroll (@conncarroll) September 12, 2012

These attacks could have been prevented if Romney had just given those terrorists cancer. — jon gabriel (@exjon) September 12, 2012

Heh.

MT @RBPundit: Has anyone found ONE "journalist" who is more concerned with Obama's handling of the situation than with Romney? — rdbrewer (@rdbrewer4) September 12, 2012

Ace of Spades joins NRO in absolutely destroying the Obama cheerleading squad in the media. Their pom-poms are surely deflated after this swoon-worthy dressing down.

This happened with Hurricane Isaac, too. The press began acting as if Romney, not Obama, had duties with FEMA (and should cancel convention) — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

They're so used to blaming the Republicans for everything… it gets a little silly, doesn't it? Newsflash: Obama is the president. — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

@verumserum @PeterHambyCNN being a reporter, yeah, you should probably get the country right. The statement was about Egypt. — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

@verumserum I know it's confusing, @PeterHambyCNN , with all those countries sort of looking the same, but I assure you they're different. — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

as someone said, the press is morphing "egypt" into "libya." see geopolitical genius @PeterHambyCNN http://t.co/1RvDT1kc — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

They are even mixing up countries, all as cover for their dreamboat Obama.

Shorter Media to Mitt Romney: How could you let your statement travel back in time and cause the deaths it didn't cause? — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

Shorter Media to Mitt Romney: Please help us shift, somehow, responsibility from the current C-in-C to a candidate who's not in any office. — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

Amazing to me how the, uh, "Smart Set" thinks the day's story is about a statement about chaos, and not the chaos itself. — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

Blogger of the Year @mattklewis is quite firm that the Big Important Story is not 9/11 2.0 but a statement about another statement. — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

An American Ambassador and 3 others were murdered in a supposed safe house, apparently by Libyan officials in league with the Muslim Brothr. — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

The big story, then, is obviously whether Romney should have delayed a statement about a statement from the *Cairo Embassy by 12 hours. — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

Because if Romney had delayed that statement by 12 hours, chances are, Chris Stevens would be resurrected. — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

@rickklein you know what would have been good: If Obama had done something to forestall this. Oh wait The Narrative is that he's powerless. — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

Ah, poet-wannabe Rick Klein. At it again.

"News" to amateurs: Al Qaeda and/or the MB launched a worldwide attack on US embassies and interests; four murders thus far. — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

The Real News, according to "Real Journalists" and @mattklewis: Romney released a statement about a statement 12 hours too early. — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

I can't believe you amateur naifs are discussing Al Qaeda, the MB, Obama's being caught flat-footed, while you miss the real story… — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

So, the media has already made it clear we won't be talking about the economy this election. — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

Obama has declared it to be a Foreign Policy election, and they've enthusiastically agreed. — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

But now it seems Obama has told them they ALSO should not be discussing Foreign Policy, either. — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

So the election is going to be about Tax Returns, Sandra Fluke, and Romney's "gaaaffes" again. — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

Good Q via Rush: If not hurting the feelings of Muslims is vital for keeping the peace, why did he spike the ball on OBL so hard last week? — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

I mean, here's the thing: Romney's statement, whatever you think, came LATER IN TIME than the attacks/murders. — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

It is therefore logically incapable of causing them, no matter how hard the media attempts to link the two in the public's mind. — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

Obama's furious ball-spiking, however, came less than a week ago. — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

And, get this: The people doing this are sort of fans of OBL. They're not just Muslims. They are specifically Al Qaeda types. — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

I don't blame the actions of religious murder-maniacs on Obama's ball-spiking. However… — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

…if the media is determined to blame OTHERS for "incitement"–maybe the maniacs didn't like hearing how Obama shot OBL in the face 20x — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

So should Obama's statements be prosecuted as a "hate crime," too? — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

I can't wait to see what the First Amendment looks like when the "civil libertarians" on the left get done modifying it. — Everyone's Famous (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 12, 2012

Yes. Look at how they’ve already modified the term “real journalist.”

Beautiful, Ace. We just might pick up pom-poms and don cheerleader outfits the next time you thrash the media so handily! It’s not even a fair fight; They are handicapped by their drooling sycophancy.
