"about as active as any project that I've been involved with since I've been President..

Travis, that was a brilliant answer. And it is absolutely true. He had nothing to do with the project.

Your tag line is spot on.

The President also said he was "about as active as any project that I've been involved with since I've been President... I was not involved with designing the initial plan but each iteration they'd bring to me, make a full presentation, we would ask questions. We had multiple meetings in the Situation Room where we actually had a model of the compound and we would discuss how this operation might proceed and what various options there were."

Obviously, neither Obama, nor his staff, nor the media, have any idea how utterly ridiculous this paragraph makes the President look.

He was "actively involved" because he received regular briefings. They let him ask questions. He got to see a model. Gee whiz, it was almost like being on the raid...

And he's trying to take credit for it!

Yet, he says it, nonetheless. The staff doesn't direct him away from this kind of self-serving BS. And the media reports it -- as if we should be proud of a childish president and his ego.

The Obama administration is one long national nightmare...

Translation - I had Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid take care of it.
