Obama brags he had Osama Bin Laden in his sights and took the shot. Do you think Navy SEALs have a right to be infuriated?

I guess I missed that part. I guess spending all my time in the REAL world has its drawbacks. Please, point out where he said that. What I hear is a leader giving full credit and admiration to the brave SEALS that carried out the plan he designed with the consultation and input of the nation's military experts.

President Obama is the commander in Cnief, a difficult decision had to be made, the risks were real, the choice was his. Both Mr Obama AND the navy seals deserve huge amounts of credit.

I agree, this post is just more BS from the cons to demean the president. He's a good president so they try to demean him in every way possible, even resorting to lies.

Obama sat on his bony ass and watched those men take the shot. To try to take credit for their bravery and their putting their lives on the line is just really sad. Sure they have every right to be furious, but they will show it with their votes - against this president.

He made the call (which I applaud him for) to take BIn Laden out. He didn't go on the mission. His use of this matter for campaign purposes is at best pathetic.

True! LOL Again I give him credit for and applaud his making the decision to let the Seals take Bin Laden out. But he had no further involvement in the mission other than to watch it unfold from the Situation Room. I truly think that if Obama were to actually ever fire a weapon he would more than likely wet his pants.

Never said I did. But every other American has a right to be pissed off about it if they're so inclined. And many are. Except, of course, for Obama's lapdogs.

The damn order to kill Osama was put into effect long before Obama was president by GW ! Make no difference who was president, it would have happened. The Seals deserve the credit 100% and Obama deserves to back off and keep his dumbass mouth shut ! He just happened to be the POTUS when it came down !

Seriously, is it that hard to give a source? I will assume you would not be so slanderous as to make up a quote and attribute it to the president, so it should be no problem for you to give him (and the rest of us who are interested/skeptical) a source to give weight to your words.
