Crazy how we pull off something like this with a Government shutdown while all the other ferry countries sit there doing nothing.

There's a great deal that is done in secret, because they are meant to be secrets. Not for Obama though... Every small victory must be made public for PR purposes. He's gotta do something to divert attention away from his mounting failures here and abroad.

Essential workers are still working. Makes a great case for trimming the government fat.

Default More credit to President Obama

Yet another example of the pinpoint effectiveness of this man's command of the military in getting to the leaders of this terrorist organization. This raid yielded a figure as important and as prominent as Bin Laden. In essence, President Obama not only got Bin Laden, but he got the equivalent of Bin Laden TWICE.

If Republican were at the helm, we'd still be chasing shadows.

You hapless Pubs, take THAT in your pipe and smoke it. Effective leadership is what President Obama is all about...a nightmare for you I know.

They fight with guns and bombs and beheadings.

We fight with the court system. Just doesn't seem as effective to put fear into the enemy.

So perhaps emulating them would do the trick? You do see the contradictions in that, right?

What wins in war? Killing the enemy and striking fear into those who remain alive - or worrying about whether or not we are contradicting ourselves?

Seems like a simple choice.

Apparently they just can't stand to see our Country run effectively and intelligently. That may be due their having gotten used to the 8 years of the previous President's demonstration of how to run the US so poorly.
