A group of former special forces and intel operatives, including Navy SEALs, are speaking out against President Obama's loose lips when it comes to top secret national security details and his bragging about killing Osama bin Laden. The Special Operations OPSEC Education Fund plans to launch an ad blitz slamming Obama for his behavior and attitude toward national security.
"It is my civic duty to tell the president to stop leaking national security secret to the enemy," former Navy SEAL Benjamin Smith says in the ad. "Mr. President, you did not kill Osama bin Laden, America did. The work that the American military has done killed Osama bin Laden. You did not."
Let's not forget President Obama punted the kill shot on bin Laden three times on behalf of Valerie Jarrett before finally giving the okay according to Leading From Behind by Richard Miniter.
In response, the Obama campaign is calling the group's criticism "swift-boat politics."
Just wondering if anyone here finds it mucho coincidental that on the day after the SEALS released their ad, a helicopter with SEALS on board was shot down in Afghanistan.
“Three special operations forces — two SEALs and a Navy demolitions expert — were on board the aircraft when it went down”
What are we going to call the Special Forces, now that the media are using their name for all Special Operations people?
The more this foreign enemy combatant in our White House does to bring harm to this country and the people who truly defend her, the more he reveals that he IS a foreign enemy combatant.
The SEALS will dig in, and everybody who loves America will be right behind them. The biggest enemy our forces face is their own supposed Commander-in-Chief. We have got to protect them from him.
Those racists!

Bambo can kiss my red, white and blue @$$! He didn’t kill sh*t!
You aren’t being reasonable.
He’s in the process of killing plenty: the economy, value of the dollar, rule of law, free enterprise, self-reliance, public school system, racial accord, energy independence, good relations with the best of our allies, our respect around the world....
You’re right. I hadn’t thought about it that way.
Very interesting, The One voted against it every time during his brief time in The Senate.
10 Reasons Why the Death of Bin Laden Won't Help Obama In the Long Run
Sorry Bush... Obama's Gutsy Decision Got Osama (don't be put off by the title, read on)
I give Obama credit for continuing Bush's policies, taking much criticism from the left in the process, and for making the call when he had the opportunity.
What I have a problem with is that he acts as if everything that led to getting Bin Laden happened during his Presidency. Me, me, me, I, I, I. That clearly isn't true, but his followers are buying it.
Obama pushed the “START” button of the OBL killing machine that Bush built.
