[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.
Killing OBL was a no-brainer. Why is Obama trying to take credit for the efforts of others who were in harm's way?
Every President is a commander in chief whether they like it or not. Doesn't matter who it is so the law is that the current President commands with a "yes" or a "no".
What really bothers me is that the Republicans are trying to turn America into Syria where leaders can't control their military.
Slogan/motto:
For as much as it depends on you, live at peace with others.

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.
The best thing that Obama could have done was just make him disappear and not say a single thing about it.. just make OBL vanish.. and leave no clues to the Islamists as to what happened with him.
But we had the botched raid instead.. were a top secret helicopter went down, wasn't destroyed totally, and the Paki's let the Chinese examine it.

They weren't already mobilized? They weren't already emboldened? Where do Muslims live peacefully with their neighbors?

When we look back, we'll see that Bush really did tick off the Middle East and the democrats had to fix it. Thanks to Obama!
Bush smashed the new alternative energy cars so the oil companies can greedly live.

Nah.. the democrats are fixing nothing.. they are continuing on with the same policies (our troops are still in the middle east aren't they?)
I honestly believe that if the world trade center had been hit during Obama's presidency, little if anything would have transpired differently. We would have retaliated against Afghanistan and eventually we would have ended up in Iraq anyhow.
Not to mention that electric cars are demonstrably worse for the environment than gas cars.. the difference is on the front and back ends (The cars are more costly on the environment to make and dispose of)
Rather, some unnamed SEALS, likely ones who have another candidate in mind, have taken anonymously courageous shots at the President's campaign.
How many feel this way? Well, at least two--if you believe the source.
