Obama's "gutsy" decision to approve the assassination of Osama Bin Laden ...

Obama must be constipated.

His "guts" do not seem to work very fast.

Obama took SIXTEEN HOURS to make up his mind about Bin Laden mission .... Barack Obama kept military commanders hanging by declaring he would 'sleep on it' before taking 16 hours to give the go-ahead to raid Bin Laden's compound. .... The mission looked set to be given the all clear last Thursday when analysts confirmed beyond doubt that Bin Laden was in busy town of Abbottabad in northern Pakistan. ..... But the president stunned officials when he told a national security meeting that he wanted more time to think - and disappeared out of the room. 'I'm not going to tell you what my decision is now - I'm going to go back and think about it some more,' said Obama, according to the New York Times.

There are no surprises with this guy, except that as the truth of anything is dribbled out, it is one surprise after another.

This is a larger scale reprise of the "Pirate Episode," where finally the people on the ground took the initiative and finished the mission. In the OBL case, it i beginning to appear that Panetta took the initiative and the Affirmative Action Anus was actually clued in on a "need to know" basis and rewarded for staying out of the way by being allowed to claim the credit.

BTW, I have not forgotten that Obama has not punished those pirates who killed the 4 Americans on their yacht.
