Only took 2 1/2 years to do what Bush wouldn't do for 7 years.  That is the bottom line.

Certainly you misspoke.  There isn't and never was Al Qaeda in Iraq or other associated terrorists.
Sure there was, just not until after Hussein was no longer around to suppress them.

That'll lern ya.  ;D And btw, I know most everyone is appreciative of the SEALs, I just wish I would read more about them than about how Obama/Bush. Articles like these is what sorta set me off.

I'm a little weary already of the pats on the back to POTUS Bush for this as well.  Yes, I recognize it took a team to make this happen as well as executive policies which have been in place since the Bush days, but the honest truth is, those who deserve the biggest credit of all were those who went in on Sunday and carried out the mission.  I also don't get real lathered up about the "My, Me, I" video with POTUS Obama Sunday night.

Sadly, we may never get to see the faces, much less know the names, of those that actually risked their lives to deliver AMERICA this victory. I hope I am wrong.

As for Obama's speech, I had no problem with it at all.

Is this really what Fox is presenting relative to the OBL situation, or is Mediamatters being stupid again?

They have to know they are appreciated.  I doubt we will ever know or it may be many years in the future.  To reveal their identities would make them instant targets.

There are some on the far right claiming this, but I highly doubt you'll hear it from any of the pols. Not to mention, I'm sure some of the Rs on the intel committees have seen the pictures/video of the ambush.

Sometimes the truth hurts, doesn't it?  Hence the pain in bitten tongue....

The difference is that Obama told Paneta to go after Bin Laden.  While Bush got on national television and said he didn't think it mattered if we got Bin Laden and he didn't really care if we did or not.  Several times.

Not to mention that he went away to the wrong country to 'not look for' Bin Laden.

Well, that's what happens on the steady diet of 'magic Kool Aid'.  Maybe if they didn't overdo the Kool Aid they could remember what the rest of the world has seen and not sound so derivative (RWRE script) and out of touch. 

That's gotta be how Mark Levin metabolizes his daily dose of Murdochiabread - he's a lawyer!

I don't share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

Bill Mahr, now there's a nice, center of the road, balanced....left hand wingnut.  He has as much credibility with me as the Fox news guys do with you.  I watched him long ago on HBO but tired of his politics.

He's not really a leftist. He's more anti-Republican at the moment. Before our most recent war in Iraq, he was clearly more little l libertarian than anything else.
