I heard Panetta head of CIA got tired of waiting for Obama
and made Obama do it....some weird maneuver.
- Fortunately we were right, he said.
Like we would ever know the truth.
Don’t trust a thing this admin says nor the assumptions underlying what they say. Where’s the body? Until and unless they produce a verifiable (by multiple independent third parties) corpse, I will have zero faith that this operation has any resemblance to what the official line says.
Anyone believe this loser was making any real coherent decisions? I bet they had to drag him away from a ball game on TV to do this.
It was a half nelson maneuver. ;)
HE took a gamble??
How about the Seals?
It’s all about the “O”.
So they go in and it's some lower level jihadi instead of Osama. How is that huge geopolitical ramifications?
If he is talking about the Pakistanis finding out we did a raid in their territory, well they did find out.
If he is talking about the possibility that dozens of SEALs could get killed, well that just happened and that didn't seem to put a damper on Obama's vacation.
lol, he looks like Erkle in this picture.
afferte mihi corpus ... until then, you are a poophead.
Wow, Obama was that hesitant about this?
Well, everyone remember, the movie version of this event will be in theaters on Oct. 12, 2012, just in time to influence the election. I trust that the movie will show all of the doubts and missteps along the way, as well as the final conclusion. It would be disappointing to see Hollywood idiots make a movie about Obama getting Bin Laden and trying to make it a puff piece for Obama.
I suspect he was curled up in the fetal position suckingn his thumb until someone poked him and told him it was over.
Exactly. Valerie Jarrett said “no” so Panetta and Daley did an end run and Obama had to be dragged off of the golf course.
This one definitely needs a Barf Alert...
That photo of the war room almost looks like Obama’s image was photoshopped in. We will never know.
Whether Obama gave the go ahead because he had guts, or because he didn't have the guts to risk being the guy who missed Obama (as subsequently told in Panetta's tell-all book), the order was given, and the attack went ahead.
The heroes are all the uniformed and non-uniformed people in harms way who contributed to this. Barry gave the order, and for whatever reason, that is one small tiny checkmark of positive in an Administration that has otherwise been a disaster.
Doesn’t matter. Osama was dead already......YEARS ago. This was Barry’s Kabuki theater for his base. No body....and Seals “offed” to keep other informed mouths shut.Remember how sick you got of seeing the flashlight in Saddam’s mouth before he was hung?????
Now....shall we talk about Donald Young? Larry Bland? Nate Spencer? Lt. Quarles Harris?
May God bless the families of the Seals.
Barry’s got blood ALL over him/her.
I’m still waiting for proof we got Osama.
Does anyone hear think that if Bush, as president, had “got him” and announed it without providing proof that the LSM (and every conspiracy nut including those here on FR) wouldn’t be still throwing a hissy fit?
