Rep. Chaffetz to Candy Crowley: ‘It’s not the role of the moderator to say, Mr. President, you’re right’

On CNN this morning, Rep. Jason Chaffetz R-Utah told debate moderator Candy Crowley that she was wrong to insert herself into the presidential debate last night, as the two candidates spoke about Libya.

“I just felt that personally that was the one time where I felt like there was a genuine disagreement between the two candidates and I felt like it wasn’t necessarily your place to try to be fact checked right there.” Chaffetz said. “I happen to think that your assessment of that was wrong and so I was a bit frustrated on that particular part.

“It’s not the role of the moderator to say, Mr. President, you’re right, or Mr. Romney you’re wrong.” Chaffetz concluded.
