WASHINGTON, Aug 10 (Reuters) - Moviemakers producing a film about the U.S. special forces raid that killed Osama bin Laden are getting help from the Pentagon, but the Obama administration dismissed concerns on Wednesday that classified information has been divulged.

The film, focusing on one of President Barack Obama's key successes in office, is due to be released in October 2012, less than a month before the election in which the Democrat is seeking a second term.

Republican Peter King, chairman of the House of Representatives Homeland Security Committee, called on Tuesday for an investigation into contacts between the administration and the filmmakers. King questioned whether special operations methods had been compromised.

"The claims are ridiculous," White House spokesman Jay Carney told a White House briefing.

“but the Obama administration dismissed concerns on Wednesday that classified information has been divulged.”

This thinking is exactly why we have our PATRIOT SEALS being brought home to their families in coffins... our finest lay dead because this kenyan usurper cares about PR and votes more than the lives of our GREATEST AMERICANS.

I have said it before but I have never meant it more than I do now... FUbo!

Which should be followed up with Obama going blah, Navy Seals, Blah, Navy Seals, Blah - all in an effort to boost his ratings. Obama’s big mouth made the Seals the #1 target. This tragedy was not random and not a coincidence. If Bush had done such a stupid, shameful thing, the press would be demanding that he resign.

Since the CIC decides what is Classified..I guess they could say that the info they have given Hollyweird is now Non-Classified. Or am I parsing his words?

“one of President Barack Obama’s key successes in office”

`key’ meaning `only,’ and that he had to be bullied into it by Hillary!

One of? Name another. (and I’m giving some big leeway, because what kind of idiot would have said “No, don’t go get the biggest terrorist in the world even though we know right where he is”)

It wasn’t “his” success. All the credit goes to the SEALs and those who actually carried out the mission. Plus, didn’t they have to call him off the golf course?? I don’t think he made the call...just my opinion. :)

People of that ilk see ObamaCare as a “key success” for Obama.
