Conservatives have to accept the idea that the killing was done on the watch of Obama.

Liberals have to accept that the killing was done using information from Gitmo detainees that was not necessarily extracted in the most polite of ways. They also have to accept that it wasn’t “diplomacy” but the brave men of the U.S. Military who did Osama in. They will also have to accept that it was men, not women, on that SEAL team.

It’s a lot easier to be a conservative on this day.

Yea, it was completed on his watch. But the wheels were set in motion long before it became his watch. But if it had been left up to him to start the wheels in motion; we’d be sitting there revving our engine in neutral.

The intelligence that Obama used to kill OBL appears to have been obtained during the Bush administration. They identified this courier 4 years ago and have just finally been able to act on the intel. That means, Obama was just following plans set in motion before he was President. I will give him credit for this but I think he and his followers are pretty out of touch with reality if they think this is ALL Obama which what they seem to think. It would have been nice if this could have been a simple American victory but, go figure, the Dems are playing football with it.

0bama wanted OBL captured, not killed.

The 0bama Regime would have allowed him to get all lawyered up and had a show trial that dragged out until close to election day, where upon he would have been sentenced to death as the “October Surprise”

Thank goodness that the Seal Team shot him dead!

0bama must be fuming!

Military theorists, and bleeding hearts, will have to accept, given the experience of Saddam Hussein and Osama Bin Laden, that the concept of ‘conducting a manhunt from 30,000 feet’ is conclusively debunked - and most assuredly is not a practical alternative to ‘boots on the ground’....

I expect the fact that key intelligence was obtained at Gitmo to be swept under the rug by the Obama-loving media.
