Am I the only one who thinks that Obama and team with it’s “if you think the capt is in danger to take appropriate action” was really creating a political fig leaf for itself in that, if it fails the military screwed it up but if it suceeds, O-team will bask in the credit.....with the undying help of the liberal media.

Of course... The orders were probably “If you can free him without endangering his life, then do so. If not, then don’t.”

That way, he can take the credit if it comes out good, and deflect the blame if it turns out bad.

You are not the only one. Several have agreed, because it’s plainly obvious.

...which reminds me of the cute story from the UK I think regarding Obama's silence for several days on this pirate issue. They searched and searched but could not find any feasible way to blame Bush. All they found was a '94 comment that "the Pirates suck".....

...that would be the Pittsburg Pirates.....

....surprised they didn't try to use it against him.
