Obama repeatedly used the first person singular to describe the operation:

“I directed Leon Panetta . . . .”
“I was briefed on a possible lead . . . .”
“I met repeatedly with my national security team. . . .”
“I determined that we had enough intelligence and authorized an operation. . . .”
“At my direction, the United States launched a targeted operation. . . .”
“I’ve made clear . . . that our war is not against Islam. . . .”
“I’ve repeatedly made clear that we could take action. . . .”
“I called President Zardari. . . . ”
“I, as Commander in Chief, have to sign. . . .”

Barry is just being modest, he piloted the helo, repelled down with a 60 in one hand (and the ammo belt wrapped around his neck), a cigar in his month and a martini in the other hand while he picked off the guards with hip shots. Once he hit the ground, he single handedly climbed up the wall, ran through the house, killing 25 terrorists with his grandpappy’s six shooter, finally finding Bin Laden and taking him out with a kill shot from 20 feet away. Then he jumped back into the super sonic stealth jet, piloted it back to DC, ripped off his uniform to reveal his tux and welcomed people to a state dinner.

True story.

Oh, Bull Roar

Panetta never even told Jugears of the raid until it was too late for him to stop it
