“Reality, of course, is that no one cares if it was unlawful.”
Defeat Obama by any means necessary...even the death of OBL. That’s how dangerous Obama is to the USA. Of course, he’ll just blame Panetta in the end
That trial balloon is already being floated - probably in case this starts to bite them. have seen multiple stories now about Obama 'stalling' or 'hemming and hawing' before making his decision along with a couple intimating that Panetta may have decided to order the strike after waiting for Obama to make a decision.
Of course that could also be being floated to make Panetta look strong and decisive to furthur pave his way to SecDef.
“Of course, he’ll just blame Panetta in the end”
Rather hard to do after Obama went on TV and took credit for the whole operation. That narcissistic ramble of I. I, I and me, me, me
may prove costly.
Maybe Hillary and Panetta planned it that way. ;)
