White House disavows Cairo apology
The White House is disavowing a statement from their own Cairo embassy that apologized for anti-Muslim activity in the United States.
“The statement by Embassy Cairo was not cleared by Washington and does not reflect the views of the United States government,” a senior administration official told POLITICO.
The U.S. embassy in Cairo put out a statement early Tuesday that apologized for an anti-Muslim film being circulated by an Israeli-American real estate developer.
They do have buses in Cairo, you know.
ths update: And BOOM! Romney drops his embargo and a statement:
“I’m outraged by the attacks on American diplomatic missions in Libya and Egypt and by the death of an American consulate worker in Benghazi.”
“It’s disgraceful that the Obama Administration’s first response was not to condemn the attacks on our diplomatic missions, but to sympathize with those who waged the attacks.“
What HE said.
ths more: Oh, it’s late (like, 10:30 central), but you KNEW this was gonna happen. I think the technical term is “POOF!”

Lotsa people retweeted the thing and I’m so, so sure that someone’s got it screen-capped just for the shits and the giggles.
Dumb, dumb, dumb.
Dumb.
And what Stephanie Cutter would call a “FELONY” if Mitt Romney had done it.

Paging Eric Holder! There’s Justice to be done!
@mbaha2 No, that’s not true. We consistently stand up for Muslims around the world and talk abt how Islam is a wonderful religion
