Hey Obama for unAmerica, it probably isnt a good idea to use Kerry to respond to Special Ops critics of Obama. He's the last person you should use.
Why? Because he's a decorated war hero who was smeared and lied about by the Republican right wing?
That's patriotism, right there. Trying to destroy the reputation of a US veteran for cynical political purposes. It remains the single most scummy political operation I have ever witnessed in my entire adult life. It was the very reason I left the Republican party after almost 30 years.

So WHO is behind this group posting this stuff? I'd definitely call it "swift boating" or trying to "swift boat" Obama.
Here's a very accurate quote from your link:
"Seeing the new outrageous attacks made against President Obama from a shadowy Republican-allied veterans group called OPSEC, which take issue with the mission to kill Osama bin Laden, remind me all too well of the notorious “Swift Boat” attacks I faced in the 2004 campaign. I honor and appreciate the service of my fellow veterans, but a false attack is a false attack — no matter who’s making it.
It’s not enough to wish them away or dismiss them because they come in part from “birthers” who still won’t concede that President Obama was born here in the United States."
This will get some play in the "Michelle Obama lies about what vegetables she grows in her garden*" crowd, but the press won't touch it with these partisan kooks background.
* Actual thread subject posted in CD by Obama haters
These "special ops" guys are just GOP partisans sent out to score political hit points. Ones's run for Congress for the GOP already.
Treat them with the reverence any partisan hack deserves.............NONE
I don't give a damn what they did in the military.
Tell us what is inaccurate about what they said. As they say, the people around them during an operation are of all political types, races and so forth. They ALL DIE the same way when Presidents let out classified information that helps an enemy adjust to their tactics.
The President ends up helping kill folks doing what he did spiking the ball on Laden.
What part do you disagree with. We all know about all the information that was released and what was said made common sense conclusions.
Take politics out of it and they are still telling the truth and making a good point.
The OPSEC group says it is not political and aims to save American lives. Its first public salvo is a 22-minute film that includes criticism of Obama and his administration. The film, to be released on Wednesday, was seen in advance by Reuters.
“Mr. President, you did not kill Osama bin Laden, America did. The work that the American military has done killed Osama bin Laden. You did not,” Ben Smith, identified as a Navy SEAL, says in the film.
“As a citizen, it is my civic duty to tell the president to stop leaking information to the enemy,” Smith continues. “It will get Americans killed.”
An Obama campaign official said: “No one in this group is in a position to speak with any authority on these issues and on what impact these leaks might have, and it’s clear they’ve resorted to making things up for purely political reasons.”
Earth to Ben Smith- we know Obama did not kill bin Laden, got to love that this i sa social group. He is an embarassment to the Navy Seals
