Bin Laden is DEAD, thread from Hell

[idb]

I made a post in this thread and was told it was an invalid link.

Obama showed courage, leadership and acted in the best interest of this Country by ordering the Insertion with orders to capture or kill Bin Laden. He acted in the best interest of this Country and it was a Presidential action that deserves credit.

The military and the CIA deserve credit for finding him

Bush deserves credit for starting the hunt.

Actually, that would be Clinton.

Nope. It was Bush who started this particular hunt. And Obama ended it.

Bi-partisan co-operation in other words.
Doesn't it feel good?

 

[The Rabbi]

Obama invaded a sovereign country and committed an assassination on foreign territory. The international community, esp the Muslim world, will make repercussions. Let's see how well he sticks to his statement of responsibility or whether he shifts to "this was Pres Bush's policy".
But domestically there is no liability.

LOL You dumb ***** are just all over yourselves with envy. President Obama got Bin Laden. Bush failed to do so for 7 years. For seven years, the man that masterminded the murder of 3000 Americans on American soil walked free and lived a life of luxury, while your boy screwed up in Iraq.

Old Rocks, I hate to break it to you, but you better read the Op.

A) It was waterboarding done under Bush that got the intel to find OBL.

B) The killing was carried about by the the Seal Team that was called "Cheney's Assasionation Ring."

It is YOU dumb you know what's that have egg on your face. Every thing liberals were against when Bush was president, finally got Bin Laden.

Deal with it.

Obama orders the assassination of one guy and the leftists suddenly sound like Gen'l George S Patton. If it weren't so pitiful it would be funny.

And what if unicorns came out of Obama's butt and shot Bin Laden??????

I don't discuss hypotheticals because they aren't grounded in reality?

The Pakistan military academy come out against our best????

Yeah, and Baghdad Bob told us the US would never set foot in Baghdad.

They weren't coming out against Navy Seals. Get real!

Gosh, you've got the use of those smileys sorted...good for you!

When liberals are losing they whine about the smilies!

Haha...look at them go...I bet they make you feel happy.

Who has the responsibility in the picture?
If it had turned to shit, who would have taken the blame?

George Bush of course.

I forgot.

It appears as though Obama, is voting present again. Damn he's good at that isn't he?

 

[brokenarrow]

Did he put on a uniform and get his hands dirty?

Did OBAMA pull the trigger that killed OSAMA?

He was bound to get caught someday. An angry wife could have put a pellet in his mellon.

However, if boring speeches could kill an enemy, Obama would be the winner!

Yes. He is The Commander In Chief.

You mean, he's the commander inept!!

Obviously not all the credit but some credit, yes. Obama made a decision to violate Pakistani Sovereignty and stepped on some toes to kill Bin Laden, and was smart not to alert the Pakistanis, Obama could have really fucked this up if he did otherwise.

 

[P F Tinmore]

All so true.

All those so called anti-war protesters during the Bush administation, WHERE ARE THEY NOW?

all you can do today is sit back and laugh.

The real ones are still out there getting ignored by the corporate media.

 

[slukasiewski]

Haven't seen a war protest or those Code Pinko freaks in downtown D.C. since Obama took office...

Yeah, I guess torture and war are cool now!! Yay!!!

And the Liberals all of a sudden admire the military!!
Back during the Bush years - they were spitting on soldiers!

Flip ......
Flop ......

 

[Dr.Drock]

At heart 95% of democrats and republicans are warmongers, they just want their guy to be the one doing the killing.

Yep, this is exactly what I was talking about...the rightwinglunatic fringe.

Not surprised to see you championing bin laden.

I'm not.
Are you saying he did not invade a sovereign country and did not authorize a targeted assasination?

That question is a subject for another thread.

The point I'm making is that Obama said this was his decision. In other words, if there is any political fallout or collateral damage, it is his fault. Not Congresses, not the military's, not the Cia's, not the American people's.

He has no political coverage. Bush always did, because Congress voted to let him do as he pleased.

The buck stops with Obama.

Yes, Obama was the decider and I give him credit for giving the go. BUT, the ones who accomplished the deed are nameless heroes and laid their lives on the line. BO had better be sure and spread it around to those who deserve it.

Sure screwed up that mission on Sunday, didn't he? At least some people here are VERY unhappy about its conclusion, that's for sure.

You are 100% correct, the men that went into the compound and wasted Bin Laden are the real heros.

 

[bodecea]

Quit it. Obama ORDERED it. He ordered our troops to enter a Country that basically forbad US military activity. he ordered them in and ordered them to capture or kill Bin Laden.

NOTHING would have happened if Obama had not had the courage to make that Presidential decision.

Quite right, Obama potentially risked his presidency and his personal legacy on this one operation.
He deserves a share of the credit.

He RISKED HIS PRESIDENCY??????????????????

There are people on the left now saying there is no way Obama can lose in 2012 and you people on the left are claiming he risked his presidency?????????

Yeah, because those people dancing in Times Square Sunday night were sooooooooooooooooooooooo sorry Bin Laden's dead!

Can you guys get anymore full of it??????

I bet you can try!

Pssst. Desert One.

POLITICAL FALLOUT?????????????

What political fallout could there be from killing OBL?????? Like anyone is going to miss him?

That's like saying Truman would have taken political fallout for killing Adolf Hitler.

Give us all a break!

Obama invaded a sovereign country and committed an assassination on foreign territory. The international community, esp the Muslim world, will make repercussions. Let's see how well he sticks to his statement of responsibility or whether he shifts to "this was Pres Bush's policy".
But domestically there is no liability.

I don't think there is going to be any real fallout. I think they will sputter and make noise, but what can they do?

They can't deny we had reason, and they can't deny we had a right.

If Pakistan was harboring OBL (and I think it was pretty damn obvious, they were), it is THEY who should worry about the fallout, since Afghanistan is a war zone for the same reason.

My understanding is that Osama bin Laden ended up diplomatically as a "stateless" person with no important allies. Saudi Arabia had revoked his citizenship. So there was no country that was going to file a diplomatic protest either for killing him or for dumping his body in the ocean.
