<\/p>\nRUSH: So far, folks, the entire narrative of the reason for the mob activity in the Middle East has been false. It\u2019s a false narrative. A so-called fundamentalist pastor who never even saw this YouTube video that nobody else has seen, that\u2019s supposedly produced by an Israeli Jew who turns out to be a Coptic Christian. A film that, in fact, may not actually exist. But if it does, nobody has seen the entire thing, as best we can tell.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
And we, nevertheless, are to believe that hundreds of thousands of Arabs in the Middle East are driven to march, riot, maim, and kill, based on this? Sorry, folks. I\u2019m not buying this. I\u2019m not joining this media bubble, this movie, whatever this is. If anything, it could even be a hoax. But it has nothing to do with this, other than being used to incite the rabble. But it is the reason this is happening. It just happens to occur on 9\/11, by the way, and thereafter.<\/p>\n
I guess that\u2019s just a coincidence! <\/p>\n
Meanwhile, 9\/11 comes around, but our embassies and consulates are not fortified. Apparently there were no additional security measures. The Marines didn\u2019t have bullets in Egypt. The president doesn\u2019t bother with intel briefings since the 6th of September. That\u2019s the last one he had. A British paper reports, citing senior American diplomats, that 48 hours prior to the attacks on our consulate and embassy, the government was aware of credible threats and didn\u2019t do anything. <\/p>\n

And where is Obama? <\/p>\n
He\u2019s in Vegas, Colorado, fundraising, campaigning, cracking jokes at his rallies.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s just another day, as though nothing serious is going on.<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: At the morning press briefing (we\u2019ve got the audio now) a reporter said, “As you know, the unrest in the Middle East is spreading to other embassies. The president\u2019s critics are saying it\u2019s an indictment of his handling of the Arab Spring.” <\/p>\n
That\u2019s not what we\u2019re saying. Ugh. Anyway, “And that this is given rise to further inflamed sentiment among Islamists. What\u2019s his response to that, Jay?”<\/p>\n
CARNEY: I would note that many observers, commentaries, foreign policy experts, as well as elected officials — both Democrats and Republicans — have…<\/p>\n
RUSH: Oh, come on! Stop it. If I\u2019d-a known he was gonna say that, I wouldn\u2019t have bothered playing it \u2019cause it just ticks me off. Here you start out with a list of all of these straw men. Go ahead and recue it to the top. I know I\u2019ve gotta play it. “Many observers, commentators, foreign policy experts, elected officials — both Democrats and Republicans — have pointed out that…”<\/p>\n
Where have they pointed it out? Where have all of these experts, these straw men, done it? Where have they all agreed that it is the YouTube video? Everywhere I look, people are trying to denounce that. It\u2019s secondary. This is much bigger than that, and here you have the regime not willing to face up to it. Okay, here\u2019s the whole answer again. I promise to let it all go by.<\/p>\n
CARNEY: I would note that many observers, commentators, foreign policy experts, as well as elected officials — both Democrats and Republicans — have, uh, pointed out that the criticism in particular from Governor Romney and his team in what seems to be an attempt to score a political point has been, uh, both factually wrong and poorly timed. Now is a time when Americans should be coming together.<\/p>\n
