No matter how much I expect a story like this to be true, it was started by a blogger named Ulstermann who is a notorious spreader of disinformation.
Whomever started this rumor apparently never heard of the Goldwater-Nichols Act. It's quite clear, and every combatant commander in the US Armed Forces knows exactly what it says. If Leon Panetta told an UCC to pick up a piece of paper, let alone execute a raid in a foreign country, he would be instructed to do something to himself that is biologically impossible.
In the US, military officers only take orders from one civilian - that's the SecDef, and SecDef only takes orders from CIC. It's not policy, it's federal law.
If he'd given the order to take out Obama, well that would be illegal.
LOL. So piñata NEVER mentions it to Obama before issuing the order to go get him.
Yep, sure - but people will believe that Obama wants the economy to improve...so, I guess, people will fall for anything.
It was a long standing U.S. strategy to take out Bin Laden. Whoever gave the orders were not gutsy and were simply discharging minimal government duties.
Given the phrasing of the title, it would be a tough choice.

If the kid at Starbucks voiced opposition to a plan it would make Barry uncertain. I have no doubt that at some Point Panetta, Clinton and Gates said “eff it” and ordered the raid. They probably waited until Barry was conveniently out on the golf course to do it.
can the media, and everyone, stop using the word gutsy?
Thats what I heard. After waiting 16 hours for a reply from O, he went with it. Ima think that after it was a success O took credit. If it went bad it would have been Penetta’s babey

Did Hillary start the rumor that Panetta sent the order rather than Obama?
“...primary opposition to this plan originated from Valerie Jarrett...”
Valerie Jarrett: Iranian of the Day!!!!
snip: “Jarrett is a member of African-American and Chicago royalty. But her story and her life begin in the Middle East, not the Midwest. She was born in 1956 in Shiraz, Iran, about 570 miles south of Tehran.”
“Every memory from Iran is a very happy memory,” Jarrett told me in an e-mail...”
‘Nuf said about the “woman” that whips the sissy-boy-in-chief.

This is spin for the consumption of the “it’s not obammy’s fault. The powers that be did it!” radical left wingers. Obama signed a death warrent for Osama in the form of an executive order. Sen. Shelby saw the EO.
Think about it. Holder put cia agents on trial for water boarding the terrorists captured in war. Do you think for a minute the military would go in and execute jihad’s hero without zero taking responsibility for the action?
That is super stupid.
