Newt: Obama Legacy ‘Is Going to Disappear Within a Year’

[bripat9643]

Bush didn't "let bin Laden" go, moron, and almost no one gives Obama the credit for finding him and killing him.

Bush allowed bin Laden to escape in Tora Bora

Obama killed bin Laden

Keep repeating that if it makes you feel better.

Then say "President Trump."

Which has nothing to do with Obama killing bin Laden

What does Obama giving the OK for Navy seals to kill bin Laden have to do with anything?

Well...it kind of works like this

Hitler never killed any Jews....but he gave the order
Bin Laden never killed anyone on 9-11...... But he gave the order

Obama gave the order

He gave the OK. That's the easy part. No president would have waited a second to do that. Finding him and killing him was the hard part.

Oh, don't forget, marriage equality is part of the Obama legacy.

Trump says that's settled law now. What's Newt have to say about that?

Trump does not get to determine what is settled.

A lot of people will be fighting that battle for a long time and he'll have no say in it.

He'll have a big say in it if he appoints a Supreme Court judge who agrees it's settled law.

Actually, you do have to wait a second. You have to be sure you have the right target.....otherwise you are killing an innocent citizen in Pakistan
At the time the mission took off, they were only 60 percent sure it was bin Laden
Obama also had to decide whether to notify Pakistan we were coming, get them involved, send in the SEALs or just bomb the compound
As it was, half the SEALS were almost killed when the helicopter crashed on the wall.

Obama made a gutsy decision and he was right.......if he was wrong, Republicans never would have let him forget it

They can determine if it's bin Laden when they see him. They were up against a bunch of peasants in Pakistan, not any kind of trained military force. The helicopter crash was a pure accident. That can happen any day of the week whenever the military is flying helicopters. If the mission doesn't get bin Laden, then he simply declines to tell the press about it.

The risk to Obama was entirely negligible.

They didn't "see" bin Laden until they killed him
Sending in helicopters ran the risk of Pakistan shooting down helicopters that had not been cleared. The helicopter crashing on the wall could have killed every SEAL onboard

Republicans would have never let Obama forget it

Gutsy move by Obama.....I would have just bombed the shit out of them

Wrong, moron. They saw his face before they pulled the trigger. That's how they knew who to shoot.

It was a stealth helicopter, and there was little chance of it showing up on Pakistan's rader.

As I said before, accidents happen all the time in the military.

No argument there.

But, of course, it does have to reach the SCOTUS.

Newt Gingrich's legacy, as part of the Trump campaign and administration,

has already disappeared.
