Yes, Obama is a wimp extraordinaire.

I personally don't believe Obama took out Osama bin Laden. Obozo didn't have the guts to do the deed.

Bin Laden was probably long dead before Obama issued the "order" to have him killed.

The Navy Seals got someone, but there is no proof it was actually bin Laden.

The raid was a made-for-media event, orchestrated to help Obama in the 2012 election.

Bush got us into an 18 year war that we have no will to really win.

Why do we care what he did?

Or Obama?

"Fear of retaliation"????

What better way to empower terrorism?

It's time for the terrorists and their sponsors to fear retaliation for awhile!

Remember - Iran fought Iraq to a standstill (seven year war). The US crushed Iraq in less than one week.

How come the MSM doesn’t ask asks Bolton for his opinion?

Whatever Trump does, they go to the opposite side to obtain opinions to attack Trump. With Obama it was the reverse. The MSM is worthless.

Bush was soft on terror. Remember he coined the "religion of Peace" bs. Let untold amount of the militant forces to sneak over the mountains to Pakistan when they were in our sights.

Obama is just Obama. A raghead that never should have been allowed to sit in the White House.

Coverage during the Obama years was extremely dull. On just about every decision he made you had to suffer the endless tongue bathing of the MSM. It is why many of us quit watching as it was entirely predictable and rare was the voice that questioned him.

Those who control our media suffer a serious case of group think or conventional wisdom as do our government bureaucracies and politicians. Trump has disrupted them all and they simply refuse to accept it, but I think the American people are catching on.

Oh, I see. This is an apology for the fecklessness of Bush and Obama.

I was expecting a condemnation of the two super pussies for failing to do this sooner rather than leaving the job for Trump to do after all those intervening years of more terrorism from Minced Salami.

This author is another Leftist with TDS and a super pussy himself.

Bush administration snatched disaster from the jaws of victory in Iraq.
We had half our army in Iraq, and I remember Syria and Iran were walking on eggshells.

Then Bush put our tanks in garages and they started killing our troops in Iraq. IED’s and public assassinations. Should never have been allowed.

Bolton is a tool. Not a very good ally. He could just as soon be out there praising Trump’s boldness but he’s not

They didn't make that mistake when they did the Fuddy.

The killing... is the US's most significant escalation of tensions against Iran yet and is likely to further inflame conflict in the region and provoke severe retaliation.

Was the attack on our embassy an escalation of tensions? Of course not! It was just a friendly visit by a group of austere Islamic scholars!

Obunghole was not a pussy or JV - he is a traitor who’s every action possible was directed to the destruction of the West and the rise of islam.

The man might be lazy and evil, but he is not stupid. We have still only partially started to clean up his mess.
