At the second presidential debate on Tuesday night, a camera caught first lady Michelle Obama clapping after moderator Candy Crowley told Republican presidential candidate Gov. Mitt Romney that President Obama called the Benghazi attack an "act of terror" soon after the attack on the U.S. consulate.
Nearly all of the audible applause came from those sitting away from the actual debate, but when FOX News' camera shot moved to a bird's-eye view it became apparent that the only applause from the participating debate audience came from first lady Michelle Obama. Mitt Romney's wife Ann was also sitting with the debate participants.
According to the rules both campaigns agreed to, or the memorandum of understanding (MOA), there is to be no clapping from members of the debate audience.
The rule: Article 9, Section A, Subsection 7: "All members of the debate audience will be instructed by the moderator before the debate goes on the air and by the moderator after the debate goes on the air not to applaud, speak, or otherwise participate in the debate by any means other than by silent observation, except as provided by the agreed upon rules of the October 16 town hall debate."

Democrats, Were You Embarrassed By Michelle Obama Last Night
Seriously, it was bad enough that Obama was caught in a lie last night over this incident...(still refusing to come clean and refused to answer a question on who denied the request for added security) and then Crowley backing up his lie (a violation of debate rules and to top it off, she was wrong too about her statement ) but then, Michelle Obama, the First Lady, openly applauded during the exchange. That was a CLEAR violation of the debate rules. Deplorable behavior out of her! She might not have ever been proud of her country before but I don't see how anyone could be proud of her behavior!

You're an idiot - we know that for sure
Re: Democrats, Were You Embarrassed By Michelle Obama Last N
Michelle definitely embarrassed herself last night by not following the rules of the daebate. She should be kept away from the next one for the way she acted.
Also, Obama looked out of place again as he dodged questions and interrupted as many times as he did. The liberal moderator was getting pi$$ed at him at and it showed.

tuck, as you are the most uninformed and uneducated person on this board, I will wear your insult as a badge of honor.........Runner, Romney played the fool for Obama.....Obama would say something then sit on his stool and Romney had to turn his back to the audience and speak to Obama as he smiled........Good debating skills there Romoney..
.........Please keep it up.........

Actually I was wondering if that meant Mitt was into bondage.
