The 5 Republican arguments on Bin Ladin:
1) While Romney, Tim Pawlenty, Chris Christie and even Donald Trump congratulated the president on the historic achievement, many went out of their way to avoid mentioning his role in the mission. Rick Perry, Michele Bachmann and Sarah Palin thanked the military and intelligence communities
2) Congratulations, President Bush!
3) Lie. Sean Hannity casually mentioned on his show that the bin Laden raid “wouldn’t have happened if Obama had his way.” Santorum told a gathering of Jewish Republicans that Obama had blown it by announcing bin Laden had been killed.
4) Romney began testing a new talking point: Sure, Obama ordered the bin Laden mission. But, hey, who wouldnÂ’t have? But Romney is actually on record criticizing Obama in 2008 for saying heÂ’d act unilaterally to strike bin Laden from Pakistan if necessary, the exact scenario that actually took place.
5) Republicans are trying to say Obama can't use this as a campaign issue, as if they wouldn't. Trying to take the issue away from Obama. Sorry righties. He got Bin Ladin. You can't take it away from him.
Looks like Obama's critics were right.
The SEALs say they were right.
The interrogators are coming out and saying they were right.
So it seems only you libs (and Obama) are the ones going around saying that Obama is who should get the credit and that he still would have gotten OBL without "Waterboarding" and similar techniques.
Fact is if we had done what Obama is doing now,
simply killing everyone, we never would have gotten Osama Bin Laden. This is an undeniable fact now.
I'm not a lib, historically, and even I can give credit from the CiC to the CIA to the SEALS.
It's the biggest single American foreign policy success in decades, maybe since the downfall of Hitler.
Every American should be proud of the entire team involved, including the captain of the ship, no matter what letter he's got next to his name.
Had the SEALS failed, would the ass holes on this sight be trashing them now, according to your broken logic?
