Must be a tremendous convenience to be able to make up new "facts" whenever you need to.
"Officials said CIA interrogators in secret overseas prisons developed the first strands of information that ultimately led to the killing of Osama bin Laden."
"Saying that “our ideals give us the strength and moral high ground” to combat terrorism, President Obama signed executive orders Thursday ending the Central Intelligence Agency’s secret overseas prisons, banning coercive interrogation methods and closing the Guantánamo Bay detention camp within a year."
Obama OWNs this turd bowl economy, but he had NOTHING to do with catching and killing Bin Laden?
Being in office does not a cause and effect relationship make.
The economy was headed south when he was elected. Everyone acknowledges that, but three years after the fact we still have 9.1% unemployment and he has no plan for correcting this except to do what has already failed yet again. He is responsible for being clueless.

"The raid was the culmination of years of painstaking intelligence work, including the interrogation of C.I.A. detainees in secret prisons in Eastern Europe, where sometimes what was not said was as useful as what was."
All of the military and intelligence people have praised his decision to make the call. One general said it was a "very gutsy" call on the President's part. That makes me proud today. I think many others, including GWB and McCain, would have been afraid of the political fallout.
IMO;even Carter would have made thsi decision easlily.Luckiliy the miltary wqas not in the shape it was when in fact carter had to make the same decision which is why we need to keep funsig our miltary at these levels. time and time again it has proved itself the best of federal government orgaqnizations. Except for the Chruch commission we likely would have gotten Bin Laden long before 9-11 perhaps.
