Actually, it was a tough call.
Some people just wanted to bomb the compound. No risk to American servicemen, but no way to ensure you got Bin Laden and always a risk you might kill bystanders in the same area.
And there was always the risk that it could turn into another Desert One, where machines malfunctioned and there were horrible casualties... (In fact, one blackhawk did crash.)
If this had gone the other way- massive casualties and Bin Laden got away again, the GOP would never have let Obama hear the end of it.
So, yeah, Gutsy call.
Complete and utter horseshit.
He murdered alawhacky by bombing him and his dinner guests. So missing him with a bombing raid is just liberal romper room time.
You still claiming to be a rep?
