Kudos!!!

When Liberals go into desperation mode, their true colors come out. They despise the very people who are willing to die for their right to burn the flag.

Obama is the CIC. Of course he's not on the ground. Neither was GWB. Neither was his dad. Neither was FDR. He still ultimately has the final word, so he does deserve at least some credit. A bunch of SEALS did not act unilaterally without orders. This thread is retarded.

Maybe you are too retarded to understand that this thread is about Navy Seals who object to the outrageous national security leaks.

Try and FOCUS

Here's their video...Dishonorable Disclosures:



POWERFUL STUFF!

Intelligence and Special Operations forces are furious and frustrated at how President Obama and those in positions of authority have exploited their service for political advantage. Countless leaks, interviews and decisions by the Obama Administration and other government officials have undermined the success of our Intelligence and Special Operations forces and put future missions and personnel at risk.

The unwarranted and dangerous public disclosure of Special Forces Operations is so serious -- that for the first time ever -- former operators have agreed to risk their reputations and go 'on the record' in a special documentary titled "Dishonorable Disclosures." Its goal is to educate America about serious breaches of security and prevent them from ever happening again.

Use of military ranks, titles & photographs in uniform does not imply endorsement of the Dept of the Army or the Department of Defense. All individuals are no longer in active service with any federal agency or military service.

In a "CNN interview last month . . . Admiral William McRaven, who oversaw the raid, said: 'At the end of the day, make no mistake about it, it was the president of the United States that shouldered the burden for this operation, that made the hard decisions, that was instrumental in the planning process, because I pitched every plan to him.'

I have to say that you didn't read that link and sure didn't look at the videos. Your normal leaner behavior tells me that you failed to know what you posted about. Take a whack at reading it and then see if you don't want this thread deleted.

Oh so you realized now that your last attempt to discredit me was bogus???

If you need a refresher course on Afghanistan, there was another 3rd World Country that the USA defeated in less than 3 Months (Russia couldn't in 10 years).

WE, NATO, and the Democratically elected government there are still in control although there are some insurgents still trying to be bothersome.

They could be eliminated if we had a decent Commander In Chief....but we don't.

Obama never took credit without acknowledging the role that everyone played, first and foremost the Navy Seals.

The truth is, as POTUS, it was his call and a tough decision to make. If it had failed, it would have been a major blemish, but he took the risk. To downplay that fact, is proof positive that you are just another Obama basher/hater. At least he "smoked bin Laden out" which is more than we can say for his predecessor. Really burns the arses of those on the right...doesn't it?


Provide a link...put up or shut up.
