So both Romney and Obama were right...and both were misleading...in that exchange. The POV of those on the right is that Crowley, if she was going to intervene to cut off the "yes I did no you didn't" nonsense, should have either said "OK, move on gentlemen" or "he did say acts of terror in his Rose Garden speech on September 12, Governor, but, Mr. President, you did not specifically call the Benghazi attack an act of terror in that speech."
