Thank you for the excerpt. I am convinced this will be politically damaging to obama because it is ,in fact, his only success. He comes off as “lost” and confused” and indecisive .In essence— WEAK!!!

Well you know it was a “gutsy choice”. It just took him 4 tries to work up the guts.

It's like he was woken up and told, "Seal Team Six is at the compound now".

Inside he's thinking, "Oh fudge".

If Valerie Jarrett tells Obama to smoke, how high does he get?

I think I read he was pulled off the golf course- hence the golf shirt and the belligerent, sullen, childish pout.

But where else in this chaotic, financially strapped, crime ridden world would you find this POtuS?

The golf course. Naturally.

Meanwhile mooch is wearing the numbers off of her Black Americn Express, AKA the United States taxpayers.

This entire story and that part of Miniter’s book is just pure nonsense.

Anybody remember Dr. Afridi? We recruited him to get into bin Laden’s compound under the guise of a hepatitis inoculation program. That op was needed because we just weren’t sure whom were in the compound.

That op involved 25 tasking and travel contacts with our CIA team in March and April of 2011. After that op terminated mid-April, and we had acquired enough other intel, we waited until the next dark of the moon that occurred on May 2, 2011, the day of the raid.

It’s all a matter of record and science. Obama made the call, that any responsible President would have done. I am no fan of Jarrett but we make ourselves look foolish with pathetic attacks like this.

I am tired of all these “insiders” writing no better than trash novels with a laughable lack of research.
