SEALs slam Obama for using them for political purposes
[SEALs slam
Obama for using them as 'ammunition' in bid to take credit for bin Laden killing
during election campaign by Toby Harnden] "Serving and former US Navy SEALs have
slammed President Barack Obama for taking the credit for killing Osama bin Laden
and accused him of using Special Forces operators as ‘ammunition’ for his
re-election campaign.
The SEALs spoke out to MailOnline after the Obama campaign released an ad
entitled ‘One Chance’.
In it President Bill Clinton is featured saying that Mr Obama took ‘the harder
and the more honourable path’ in ordering that bin Laden be killed. The words
‘Which path would Mitt Romney have taken?’ are then displayed.
Besides the ad, the White House is marking the first anniversary of the SEAL
Team Six raid that killed bin Laden inside his compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan
with a series of briefings and an NBC interview in the Situation Room designed

Response to comment [from a Christian]: "The president must say, "Yes ! It's a go", before such action is taken. We should give him credit for saying, "Yes!"..."
Killing OBL was a no-brainer. Why is Obama trying to take credit for the efforts of others who were in harm's way?
Response to comment [from a Christian]: "That is right.. those with no brains killed OBL... 20-30 years now after we look back and see how that one point in time mobilized and emboldened Al-Q we will see just how stupid it was."
They weren't
already mobilized? They weren't already emboldened? Where do
Muslims live peacefully with their neighbors?

Still the Best Hope: Why the World Needs American Values to Triumph

"America has no values... so that book is one waste of paper."
It comes out ten years too late, but read it anyway.
"Sure there is the facade that our politicians pass off as our values..."
Is that your take on it? Real heroes don't boast. I can't think of any characteristics that Obama shares with our Navy SEALs.
"That is my take on it.. no matter who we vote in, things will be basically the same, just with different spin."
You get to choose between a beast from the sea (Re
13:1)
or a beast from the earth (Re

Which political button will you be wearing?
Response to comment [from a Christian]: "Gutsy call? What about killing that slime ball was gutsy? They make it sound like it was controversial or something."
Clinton was paid two million dollars to do the ad. You want him to say gutsy--he says gutsy (Ex. 23:1). 30 Apr 2012 Dick Morris, Fox News
Response to comment [from other]: "Let[']s see that source...."
Would it matter?
"Also, why not say he got paid a bazillion-gazillion dollars for the ad? I mean, two million is a lot, but a bazillion-gazillion? Whew!"
Was Morris serious about the amount mentioned on Fox News last night?
I think he was.
