Former President George W. Bush released a statement after he received a call from Obama:
“Earlier this evening, President Obama called to inform me that American forces killed Osama bin Laden the leader of the al Qaida network that attacked America on September 11, 2001.
I congratulated him and the men and women of our military and intelligence communities who devoted their lives to this mission. They have our everlasting gratitude.
This momentous achievement marks a victory for America, for people who seek peace around the world, and for all those who lost loved ones on September 11, 2001. The fight against terror goes on, but tonight America has sent an unmistakable message:
No matter how long it takes, justice will be done.”

He is the ever gracious leader. While the other one, “I gave the order -—” Yeah, right. It took him 3 days to decide to give the order to fire on those Somali pirates.
I wonder who made him do it?
God BLESS President BUSH!
