'Gutsy Call' Not So Gutsy After All, New Book Reveals


1. At the urging of senior advisor Valerie Jarrett, President Barack Obama canceled the operation to kill Osama bin Laden on three separate occasions before finally approving the May 2, 2011 Navy SEAL mission, according to a new book scheduled for release August 21, The Daily Caller (DC) reported.

In “Leading From Behind: The Reluctant President and the Advisors who Decide for Him,” Richard Miniter writes that Obama canceled the mission in January 2011, again in February, and a third time in March.

Valerie Jarrett, a senior advisor and assistant to the president for Public Engagement and Intergovernmental Affairs, reportedly persuaded Obama to hold off each time, the book reveals, according to The DC.

2. Miniter, a two-time New York Times best-selling author, cites an unnamed source with Joint Special Operations Command who had direct knowledge of the operation and its planning.

Obama administration officials said after the raid that the president had delayed giving the order to kill the arch-terrorist the day before the operation was carried out, in what turned out to be his fourth moment of indecision

At the time, the White House blamed the delay on unfavorable weather conditions near bin Laden’s compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan. However, when Miniter obtained that day’s weather reports from the U.S. Air Force Combat Meteorological Center, he said, they showed ideal conditions for the SEALs to carry out their orders.

3. “President Obama’s greatest success was actually his greatest failure,” Miniter told The DC. “Leading From Behind,” he said, traces six key decisions of the Obama administration, and shows how the president made them, or, in many cases, failed to make them.

The president has made the assassination of Osama bin Laden a focal point in his re-election campaign, calling it one of the "gutsiest calls of any president in recent history."

Where were you on 9/12/2001? Were you one of the 10% Americans that didn't care about the event of 9/11/2001?

OR were you one of these "Monday Morning quarterbacks..??
BEFORE BUSH ... When CLINTON was President...
"..deny Iraq the capacity to develop WMD".Bill Clinton,1998
"..most brutal dictators of Century", Biden,1998
"Iraq compliance with Resolution 687 becomes shell game"..Daschle 1998
"He will use those WMDs again,as he has ten times since 1983" ..Berger- Clinton National. Security. Advisor 1998
"posed by Iraq's refusal to end its WMD programs" Levin 1998
"Saddam has been engaged in development of WMDs which is a threat.."Pelosi 1998
"Hussein has chosen to spend his money on building WMDS.."Albright 1999

WHO decided they wanted the Terrorists to win and became like these guys CHEERLEADERS for the Terrorists!!!


Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid(D)
"The war is lost, the surge is not accomplishing anything "
Great for our troops moral and especially the terrorists!!!)

U.S. Rep. John Murtha(D) "Our troops killed innocent civilians in cold blood,”
Senator Kerry (D) "American soldiers going into the homes of Iraqis in the
dead of night, terrorizing kids and children."
Kerry called our troops "TERRORISTS"...
I wouldn't be surprised if Bin Laden had said:
"brothers .. even an evil American Senator calls his OWN soldiers "terrorists"!
Allah be praised!
This evil Senator is so right!
Your killing US-baby-killing-troops is justified by Kerry!"

No. Anything could have changed in those months. Dallying around could have cost him the kill.

It didn't

Each operation has rules of engagement to be met before authorizing a mission. They are put there to ensure a safe and successful mission. In this case, certain parameters would have to be met before a mission is authorized. They could include a degree of certainty that bin Laden was in fact, there, a level of training for the mission, weather conditions, intelligence and numerous other factors

Obama made the right call at the right time. History proved him right

As usual, you turn out to be one of the leading hypocrites on any topic.

What do you call whining about tax returns. What's done is done ?

You guys are not even trying to hide the fact that you have standards for others but don't keep them yourselves.

Did you read the article? One time he delayed on account of poor weather conditions. Research showed that weather conditions were perfect that night. It's just that Valerie said "No." Just who was in charge there?

But, but your commander-in-chief dallied around for years. Not giving credit to Obama is nothing more than petty, childish, bitter, stupid partisanship (at best!).

Well Monday morning quarter backing, reveals Mitt wouldn't have made the call at all.

He's said as much.

In any case..had this operation failed..it would have sunk the Obama Presidency.

As it stands it was a smashing success..and all conseratives do is criticize Obama for "assassinating" a human being.

:lol:

That is the whole point.

I've posted on Jarrett for a long long time.

I don't listen to Beck except when I am coming home from the airport after 11PM. One night he was doing a part on her. I started doing some research.

It is frightening.

Why do you think the Obama's went to bat for the Olympics at Chicago (love to see a couple dozen internationals shot by the sweethearts up there) ? Jarrett is a slumlord who would have made millions on such a deal...along with other chronies.

Unfreakinbelievable that the left can whine about Dick Cheney (who was on the ticket) and say nothing about Jarrett who is a ghost.
 
No wonder he is blaming everyone else for his decisions. He probably isnt making any of "his" decisions.

You need to offer some proof, not beck not fox; credible proof when you assassinate the character of others. If Jarrett is a slumlord one would expect her to be a Republican - that's the way slumlords role. What slumlord wants to comply with ADA or spend money on rodent control or vote for those who would support rent controls?

Beck and Fox are credible to anyone who doesnt have their head up their ass.

Fact is... Obama did NOT get the son of a bitch. The SEAL team he green-lighted did. THEIR timing was perfect.

Dumb ass.
 
Obama has been kissing Valerie's ass for years. She and Michelle likely have more to do with what Obama says and does than any other people in that troop of liberal gypsies.

The knowledge of her making decisions to delay the attack on Osama have been around for a long time.

Obama is a weak man...a pussy, so to speak. He talks a big game...like he's the toughest thing goin'...but he's really just an inexperienced, snot-nosed kid wearin' shoes that are several times too big for him.
