I will be very specific. Number one, the, this lecture on embassy security...the congressman here cut embassy security in his budget by $300 million below what we asked for, number one. So much for the embassy security piece. Number two, Governor Romney, before he knew the facts, before he even knew that our ambassador was killed, he was out making a political statement which was panned by the media around the world. And this talk about this, this weakness. I, I don't understand what my friend's talking about here.

Prior to the election, prior to the, him being sworn in, Governor Romney was asked the question about how he would proceed. He said, 'I wouldn't move heaven and earth to get bin Laden.' He didn't understand it was more than about taking a murderer off the battlefield. It was about restoring America's heart and letting terrorists around the world know, if you do harm to America, we will track you to the gates of hell if need be.

With regard to Afghanistan, he said he will end the war in 2014. Governor Romney said we should not set a date, number one. And number two, with regard to 2014, it depends. When it came to Osama bin Laden, the president the first day in office, I was sitting with him in the Oval Office, he called in the CIA and signed an order saying, 'My highest priority is to get bin Laden.'

When you're looking at a president, Martha, it seems to me that you should take a look at his most important responsibility. That's caring for the national security of the country. And the best way to do that is take a look at how he's handled the issues of the day.

What is was, it was a tragedy, Martha. It...Chris Stevens was one of our best. We lost three other brave Americans. I can make absolutely two commitments to you and all the American people tonight. One, we will find and bring to justice the men who did this. And secondly, we will get to the bottom of it, and whatever...wherever the facts lead us, wherever they lead us, we will make clear to the American public, because whatever mistakes were made will not be made again.

I don't know how long it will take. We can and we will get it under 6 percent. Let's look at, let's take a look at the facts. Let's look at where we were when we came to office. The economy was in free fall. We had, the great recession hit; 9 million people lost their job; $1.7...$1.6 trillion in wealth lost in equity in your homes, in retirement accounts for the middle class.

War should always be the absolute last resort. That's why these crippling sanctions, which Bibi Netanyahu says we should continue, which, if I'm not mistaken, Governor Romney says we, we should continue. I may be mistaken. He changes his mind so often, I could be wrong. But the fact of the matter is, he says they're working. And the fact is that they are being crippled by them. And we've made it clear, big nations can't bluff. This president doesn't bluff.
