Biden: Bin Laden killing most 'audacious' plan in 500 years
Politico ^ | March 19, 2012 | Jennifer Epstein

Vice President Joe Biden is the biggest cheerleader of the president's decision to raid Osama bin Laden's compound and, on Monday, he offered new praise for the choice Obama made last spring.

“You can go back 500 years. You cannot find a more audacious plan. Never knowing for certain. We never had more than a 48 percent probability that he was there,” Biden said at a fundraiser in Morris Township, N.J.

But sadly, many folks have never heard of D-Day, Washington’s raid on Trenton, the Doolittle Raid, the moon landing, etc.
......................................... The textbooks of the future will omit those events and praise Obama as the greatest leader of the 21st century, the one who single handily lead the Osama Bin Laden Raid with the help of a couple of navy Seals.

What’s sad is there are a large number of left wing parasites who believe anything this failed administration says.

Biden is the biggest idiot born in the last 500 years.

The raid at Cabanatuan is hands down the most audacious special operations raid in modern American history.

The Battle of Komarow/Miracle on the Vistula, 1920.
Two battles that saved the West from Bolshevik revolution.

the most audacious plan in American history since Christopher Columbo sweet-talked Queen Isabella out of her money for a cut of the pillage ....

D. Oh.

Normandy, Iwo Jima, Okinawa, the Doolittle Raid, The Crossing of the Delaware - all are easy decisions compared to Obama’s Go or No-Go decision over killing Osama.

The only thing about Soetoro's decision was that Slick Willie wouldn't make the same move which would have saved the lives of almost 3,000 Americans in the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.

According to JO-JO The Clown dropping nukes on Japan to end a war was just a walk in the park.

Patton’s Normandy breakout.

MacArthur’s Inchon landings.

Just in case no one has mentioned these.

I’d say D-Day June 6, 1944 was more audacious that the Bin Laden raid.

How about the “Raid at Cabanatuan” in WWII?

He is the dumbest VP in history, hands down. He may be one of the all-time dumbest public servants but, there are numerous contenders for that title in the House alone over just the last ten years.

The real audacity is to assume DumBO did this and Bush or McCain would not. Personally, I don’t think ZerO had any part in this. He gave Paneta an order at CIA to get Osama when he came into office, and, until, the operation was underway and POSOTUS had no way to stop. After all, if he had failed to get bin Laden, he would be toast. And, it would have come out.

On second thought.....I think Biden is right.

Biden and 0 are looking at it from their buddy UBL's point of view....it is pretty audacious to think UBL would come out on top during a raid by Navy Seals.

Great list! Add the shooting down of Adm. Yamamotto, the architect of Pearl Harbor.
