I think more people are impressed by what SEALS did than Obama’s role. I mean, give credit where credit is due, but Obama just gave the order. It really is a no brainer. If it ever came out that we KNEW where Bin Laden was, and did nothing, then Obama would be toast. And besides, it gave him a chance to knock the Royal Wedding out of the headlines.
If Bin Laden was living in the compound for 5-6 years as is being reported, when did the U.S. learn he was living there? Did Bush know? And do you think this operation was a given? Remember Carter and the hostages? That didn’t go well at all. Those who think this was an easy operation are not living in the real world. Lots could have gone wrong and American SEALS could have been killed. Can’t we just be grateful things went well and Bin Laden is dead?
Deep down in their souls, people don't change. Ever. The assassination of Bin Laden goes against everything that Zero has ever stood for.
