After that NYT article came out saying the Libyans said the attack was in reaction to the YouTube video. Gee, imagine that: it could actually be TWO things at the same time: terrorist attack AND it was in response to the video.

Sorry, but this is the right wing grasping on a current event issue and trying to make hay about it. I just don't see this hurting the President. I read this piece, and realized the whole thing is a made up "scandal":

To Libyans who witnessed the assault and know the attackers, there is little doubt what occurred: a well-known group of local Islamist militants struck without any warning or protest, and they did it in retaliation for the video. That is what the fighters said at the time, speaking emotionally of their anger at the video without mentioning Al Qaeda, Osama bin Laden or the terrorist strikes of 11 years earlier. And it is an explanation that tracks with their history as a local militant group determined to protect Libya from Western influence.
