The only thing I wonder about this picture (besides why Bozo looks so very pissed to be there and NOT in charge) ......

Is how the heck John Lithgow got in there to watch?

I find it ironic that nearly everyone in the room is an older white male. I noticed the same thing during the first few space shuttle missions after the Challenger disaster in 1986.

When things get serious, all things remotely resembling affirmative action and multi-culturalism get tossed right out the window.

Brian Williams just said that the President had not yet seen the kill.

Why is OBs head smaller than all the other people’s? Why are his shadows different?

Maybe that’s it, if it had sensitive information on the wall and they approved a photo, provided the background was covered up.

That picture is very telling. Obama should be in the Captains Chair commanding, not the Air Force general who is in the chair. Obama sitting off to the side like that does NOT look Presidential in any way.

I just read the snip on FR and clicked on the article link. More Ulsterman Insider stuff. All I can say is “interesting” and Gates was recently out and put somewhere else. Sort of corroborates.

The guy to the upper left is Adm Mike Mullen, head of the JCoS.

Admiral Mullen is the CJCS, I can assure you, he is both in the Navy and a 4 star flag officer.

Only one military guy (Air Force)? And he seems to have the nicest chair.

as you said the uniform looks USAF, but he's wearing US Army jump wings below his pilot wings...

Hey, who’s the guy behind Obama? I’ve seen him somewhere before.

The guy in the ‘Captains Chair’ is Brig. Gen. Marshall B. “Brad” Webb is the Assistant Commanding General, Joint Special Operations Command, Fort Bragg, N.C.

Noting that he’s busy with the laptop, I suspect he’s doing the tech stuff to get the images on the screen.

I think the reason the bamster is off in the corner & wearing the baseball jacket is because he’s come inside from being out for a smoke.

“Bash to dude all ya want, but he is under tremendous stress in that photo.

He would take the blame/success of the operation.

Obviously, the operators did all the work, but Obama would have to explain another Desert One.”

Nope. The credit goes to the U.S. Navy SEALs. Period.

Stress? Blame or success for the Op? Explaining failure? Have you ever met a Navy SEAL? These are Warriors. They face and overcome more stress in their training than 0Bummer will ever see in his pathetic attempt as leader.

How come there’s no computer or big chair for the Barack man?
