Thanks for the SEALs for doing the job, we are proud of you.
Question: Did Obama decide not to interfere against the SEALs killing of Osama solely based on the intent to use it for his campaign propaganda?
So yes, it must have been for the election that he allowed the seals to kill Osama. We know his preacher approved of attacking America.
Did anyone notice that the Muslim world was not upset with Osama being killed. So was Osama killed in fact??
.....and for this alone Zero should be reelected, give me a break. He’s a total failure with no record to run on.
Obama paid a blood debt of 30 Americans, 22 who were Navy SEALs, three months later.
Breitbart mysteriously dies, then one of his potential coroners mysteriously dies. Feels like Arkanside all over again, but on turbo-kill.
Big Stick
“Speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far”
During TR’s term as Governor of NY State he fought with the party bosses, particularly Boss Tom Platt regarding a political appointment. Roosevelt held out, although the boss threatened, to “ruin” him. In the end the boss gave in.
According to Nathan Miller in his book “Theodore Roosevelt, A Life”, page 337,
“Looking back upon his handling of the incident, Roosevelt thought he ‘never saw a bluff carried more resolutely through to the final limit.’ And writing to a friend a few days later, he observed: ‘I have always been fond of the West African proverb: “Speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far.” ‘ “
The proverb and the policy followed him into numerous instances in his career, including his policies abroad during his presidency.
OBAMA USING ROMNEY AS A CLINTON SURROGATE
Is Obama using the swipes he seems to be taking at Romney to get back at Clinton ?
While it may appear that Obama is accusing Romney of being weak there is a former democratic president who “passed” on knocking off OBL and it was Clinton.
Clinton was informed that Osama was discovered to be in a desert area by the CIA but Clinton reportedly had nixed the attempt to “take him out” .
Whether Obama expected Romney to mention this in his response but instead mentioned Carter when this accusation was aired in a camapign ad. It may have been forgotten by the Romney people .
But Clinton’s pass on knocking off the 911 mastermind would not be forgotten by the very thin skinned Obama which may also hint at the growing dissatisfaction with the poor performance of Obama as President within Democratic ranks.
The more likely scenario is that Obama was persuaded to allow the mission...by reminding him of how Clinton’s refusal worked against him.
Also, wasn’t it the Admiral in charge who actually “made the call to go?”
Obama had Osama killed only as ‘payback’ for his going against the Soviets in the 80s. He obviously has no problem with terrorists who’ve attacked the Pentagon and various other military and gov facilities. He launched his political career in the living room of two communist terrorists, Bill Ayers and wife, Bernardine Dohrn. They bombed the Pentagon, Capital, numerous military facilities and police stations.
"America’s chickens... are coming home... to ROOST!"
From HumanEvents.com, April 29, 2008:
"By all accounts, he [Obama friend and associate, Bill Ayers] was a ferocious, violent, revolutionary Marxist in his halcyon days as a Weatherman leader. He and his Weatherman bombers were enamored of Ho Chi Minh, Che Guevara, Fidel Castro, Mao Tse-tung -- indeed, all the murderous heroes on the Left. Referring to the Weatherman members in August 1969, he said (according to the FBI): 'We’re revolutionary Communists.'
He got off on the group’s multiple explosions, too, and discusses them rather lovingly in his memoir.
Ideal Bombing Weather:
'Everything was absolutely ideal on the day I bombed the Pentagon,' he writes (although he concedes it was really a group effort). 'The sky was blue. The birds were singing. And the bastards were finally going to get what was coming to them.' (p. 256 in the 2003 edition.)

Pentagon attack, Sept 11, 2001
From David Horowitz's FrontPageMag.com/DiscoverTheNetworks.org:
March 6, 1970: "three members of the Weather Underground accidentally killed themselves in a Manhattan townhouse while attempting to build a powerful bomb they had intended to plant at a social dance in Fort Dix, New Jersey -- an event that was to be attended by U.S. Army soldiers. Hundreds of lives could have been lost had the plot been successfully executed."

"The bomb was intended to be planted at a non-commissioned officer's dance at Fort Dix, New Jersey.
The bomb was packed with nails to inflict maximum casualties upon detonation."

2007 Fort Dix attack plot
A group of six radical Islamist[1] men, allegedly plotting to stage an attack on the Fort Dix military base in New Jersey, United States, were arrested by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) on May 7, 2007. They were subsequently charged with planning an attack against U.S. soldiers. The alleged aim of the six men was said to be to "kill as many soldiers as possible".[2] Their trial began on October 20, 2008. [3]
Opening arguments were presented on October 20, 2008.
Assistant U.S. Attorney William Fitzpatrick said the defendants were inspired by jihad saying "Their motive was to defend Islam. Their inspiration was Al Qaeda and Osama bin Laden.
To paraphrase a FReeper on another thread:
Obama taking credit for getting Osama is like Nixon taking credit for the first moon landing - that happened seven months after his inauguration
I like that.
Yes - perfect! Someone should ask Obama ... so if America gets attacked from those seeking revenge for the death of Bin Laden, will you still support your minister if he says that America, and you, are to blame for this?
Obama killed Bin Laden, just like he capped the Deepwater Horizon well. In his own mind.
Our first Muslim President did all he could to prevent the infidels from killing the Muslim hero Osama.
What’s so funny is that Americans can’t even consider much less understand the obvious roots of our President.
God Bless our SEALs, SWCCs, UDTs and all Naval Special Warfare Group and Special Operations Command people.
I pray that they aren’t used as scapegoats for some evil socialist electioning plot.
