WHITE HOUSE: Protests not directed at the United States

Carney:

‘This is not a case of protests directed at the United States writ large or at U.S. policy, this is in response to a video that is offensive to Muslims’

Protesters chanting ‘death to America’ storm U.S. Embassy in Yemen

SANAA, Yemen — Chanting “death to America” and “death to Israel,” hundreds of protesters angered by an anti-Islam film stormed the U.S. Embassy compound in Yemen’s capital and burned the American flag on Thursday, the latest in a series of attacks on American diplomatic missions in the Middle East.

Cannot be made up. Just cannot.

And THESE are the guys ahead in the polls.
