Well, we know that. He did sleep 16 hours before making the decision, after all.
For some odd reason I feel like digging into my video vault of movies and watching Capricorn One.
I feel like going outside to clean up the dog poo.
When you don’t do any of the planning, take any of the risks, and have nothing to personally lose if things go wrong, of course there’s nothing weighing on the guy’s conscience. These presstitutes make me sick!
Thank goodness we didn’t torture bin laden though.
but he has a problem with how the info was got which in turn allowed for the seals to kill him.
Funny how this biased media will not call him out on this or ow he dragged his feet on this and i bet it was a couple who stepped down said they would go public if he did not go ahead with this thus making obama know he had to do it.
This would explain how the changes of positions occurred just before all of this went down
“I had no hesitation about taking a human life”... Neither did Stalin. You can't have a moral dilemma when you have no sense of morality.
That is because he himself did not know about it until he was dragged off the golf course and forcefully made to sit down in to watch in the situation room!
He’s been telling us over and over again how he ordered the hit on OBL, which just tells me he really didn’t.
we had changes in positions just before all of this went down not the only explanation I can think of is that maybe one or two said they would go public if bozo the clown did not follow through and get him.
Knowing this would hurt politically he had to give the go ahead, Now saying that this media will not call him out or look into this just like they will not call him out about how the info was got in order to kill him
While those babies didn't kill or maim...they are inconvenient.
If it didn’t work out, we would have just sent in a drone and apologize...And we’d know zip.
I don’t think he lost any sleep over his mother’s and grandmother’s demises either.
Obama was President when this operation went down. Therefore, he gets to claim the political credit no matter how timid his decision making may have been. In the end, he either made or allowed to be made, the right decision.
It is instructive, however, to observe the White House minions and their Chosen One and compare and contrast to previous Presidents. Some observations:
Democrat Presidents all go through incredible hang wringing over these decisions. Obama may just be better at it than Clinton or Carter, but that’s not saying much. They are all obsessed with how this will sit with their America hating base. Republicans, on the other hand, don’t seem to go through the what if drills and self doubt. They make a decision, stand by it, and then take all the blame while showering the credit on those who planned and carried out the operation. Too much I, me, mine coming from Obama on this one.
Obama has been unique in completely controlling the message directly from the White House. The political hacks have been the only ones telling us what went on and they have made botched the job. Other administrations have left these operational briefings to the experts at the Pentagon and CIA. The Obama crowd would have done well to have done the same.
Obama and his lackeys have seemed to be far more concerned at how their political positions on interrogation, prosecution of the War on Terror, and their criticism of the Bush Administration will be perceived than on the benefits of this event to the United States. They only seem to care about themselves and have resorted to a steady stream of lies to try to justify their wrongheaded approach to terrorism.
me neither, but remember the sh!t they gave Bush after he said “dead or alive”?
