White House: 'Fabrication' that Obama called off bin Laden raid

By BYRON TAU | 7/30/12 2:47 PM EDT

The White House called a report that President Obama called off the raid on Osama bin Laden three times a "fabrication."

In a new book previewed by the Daily Caller, author Richard Miniter alleges that Obama called off the raid three times at the urging of senior advisor Valerie Jarrett, before finally authorizing the mission.

"That is an utter fabrication. It's seems pretty clear that Mr. Miniter doesn't know what he's talking about," White House spokesman Josh Earnest told reporters Monday.

"Ms. Jarrett, like the vast majority of the president's senior staff was not read in on the operation on the mission against Osama bin Laden," Earnest said.

And as the liberal group Media Matters notes, Miniter's report does not square with other reporting on the timeline of the mission.

Sure. THIS is a fabrication but Obama’s not a Kenyan, he’s not a communist, and he’s not gay. Right.

The White House called a report that President Obama called off the raid on Osama bin Laden three times a "fabrication."

Parsing their usual BS, this means he called it off five times.

Uh-huh, just like it was a ‘fabrication’ the Soetoro Regime didn’t return the Winston Churchill bust to Britain that they did return to Britain.

Is a “fabrication” something along the lines that the regime did “not remove the bust of Churchill from the oval office”?

Suuure....

And he didn’t send Chuchill’s bust back, and he never knew anything about Fast & Furious. Yup.

And the Somalia Yacht shooting of the Pirate Perps...?

Yeah, he ALSO didn’t call that one off —three times. And then have the on-scene SEAL commander order the shot taken anyway. And then claim credit for the success he had NOTHING to do with.

And then later legally TRY those same SEALS for supposedly roughing up a prisoner.

He didn’t do ANY of that.

And he’s not a bisexual. AND he never smoked crack with Larry in that limo.

AND he’s not a socialist.
