“And hopefully he was also on his knees begging the infidels for his life when they mercilessly pulled the trigger with smiles on their infidel faces ;)”

AMEN!

Because people:

a) Didn’t read the article.
b) Aren’t sophisticated enough to recognize sarcasm.

Take your pick.

Osama Bin Laden dead: President Obama, advisors watched raid to kill Al Qaeda leader unfold live (DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER Originally Published:Monday, May 2nd 2011, 3:49 PM)

Armchair quarterback watched it online. Wonder if the video stream was saved. Wonder if anyone else tapped the feed.

Must be tough watching it unfold of TV from the comfort of your White House while the real heroes are risking their lives for their country.

If you listen to the news coverage I've been subjected to, one would think Obama personally shot Bin Ladin in the eye.

It's too much.

Yup. It’s really starting to rub me the wrong way.

A real leader would stand back and point, admiringly, at the Warriors who carried out the mission. And would publicly scold anyone else who didn’t.

And, therefore," Brennan continued, "when President Obama was faced with the opportunity to act upon this, the president had to evaluate the strength of that information and then made what I believe was one of the most gutsiest calls of any president in recent memory." ROFLMFAO! Our Gutsy Prez. Ain't he a national treasure??

The thugs in the WH, don’t give a rat’s rear end about our military. Just a few weeks ago they were ready to stop paying them. The US military is nothing more than a tool for the thug powers in the administration.

This could have been a Jimmy Carter II move, but the equipment was better, the troops more experienced and all branches of the service were not involved unless SF.
