U.S. attorney general: bin Laden operation lawful 11:49am EDT
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Attorney General Eric Holder defended as lawful on Tuesday the U.S. operation to go into Pakistan that resulted in the death of al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden and the taking of his body.
The acts taken were "lawful, legitimate and appropriate in every way. The people who were responsible for that action, both in the decision making and the effecting of that decision............

SHUT UP HOLDER-you waffling prig~!
SHUT UP HOLDER-you waffling prig~!
I don’t get it. Holder insists that terrorists/enemy combatants, or whatever the politically correct term for these guys is, are entitled to full constitutional rights, including trial in a civilian court. Why is Holder not outraged that we killed rather than capturing and taking Bin Laden alive????
If you can’t trust Eric Holder, who can you trust?
yet according to this POS the intelligence gathering needed to find out how to off obl was not lawful....
Uh oh!
Holder has just blown the cover of Seal Team 6!
Since he said that ‘The acts taken were “lawful, legitimate and appropriate in every way...” ‘, obviously these were done by members of the New Black Panther Party!
/sarc
How ridiculous for Holder to even make a statement. Our national sovereignty is our right, specifically when our sovereignty is challenged.
That’s why nations have m i l i t a r i e s.
It’s not a federal job program.
I’d probably be accused of bias if I said his decision was colored by outside events.
Thanks for the clearance, you putz.
At least we know Binny wasnt a member of the NBP.
I have seen a lot of complaints from soldiers about the New Rules of Engagment and how it has caused many deaths.
So did the CIA follow those rules of engagment when giving the order?
Thank you for the laugh....after reading the comments from that brain donor Rashard Mendenhall, I needed it.
'Cuz there's a Donk in the White House; THAT'S why.
Sine you’re trying to be a smart @ss: Shoot at sheriff trying to bring you and see what happens
OBL, comments when asked if he wanted to go for the catagory of small arms fire to the head, or the catagory of illegal American torture techniques, during the special Seal episode of Jeapardy.
Holder is such a joke. But that's racist. Hey, if they shot Obama because of his muslem beliefs, isn't that a hate crime?
Let’s see. He approves the legality of his bosses actions. Ok, that has me convinced.
“Thank you for the laugh...after reading the comments from that brain donor Rashard Mendenhall, I needed it.”
Yeah, I read those too.
Talk about Rashard shooting himself in the foot!
It will be interesting to see how bin Laden’s death will play out in the mosques of America this Friday.
I had the same question.
I don't know what "mewykwistmas" is talking about.
Nothing about this story is consistent with prior Regime policy or practice. Nothing about what Liberals are now saying is consistent with what they were shrieking nearly every day until Obama's immaculation. Nothing about the MSM's response is consistent with prior reporting and bias over the past 40 to 50 years.
Not that I expect consistency or honesty from any of these people; but the degree of hypocrisy has just jumped exponentially in the last 48 hrs.
