But he would likely be the last to take credit for the success. He would likely give that credit to his subordinates...as any great leader would do.
And as he repeatedly did. Or, as Jon Stewart said, Obama thanked everybody Harvey Feinstein. And he had the video to prove it. The problem is, the neocons don't want to give him ANY credit whatsoever.
I think you missed the point.
Yes, he gave credit to others...and those others moved on....not mentioning it...not askling for thanks.....another successful mission and time to move on.
Obama is still talking about it as one of HIS accomplishments.
I cant helkp it if you dont see it...and I understand why you dont. Not criticizing you...but as you seek positives in Obama, I take notice of the negatives.
Take John McCain for example. He does not talk about his heroism...sure...the media did when he was campaigning...but to him? He simply did what he was supposed to do. Nothing special there in his eyes. It was not worthy of discussion.
True heros dont need people to recognize them as heros.
What makes a hero is not what they do...it is how they deal with the aftermath.
