Mr Panetta also told the network that the US Navy Seals made the final decision to kill bin Laden rather than the president.
It hadn’t occurred to me to read that as a Freudian slip but, now that you mention it….
Never let a crisis go to waste has turned into: never let a success go to waste.
It’s not just being wasted; it’s being urinated on.
“the US Navy Seals made the final decision to kill bin Laden rather than the president.”
Obviously the writer didn’t spend years studying grammar in parochial schools. Conjures up the image of the Seals sitting around trying to decide whether to go to Pakistan or Washington DC. Let’s see, which of these guys should be kill?
Jobless claims soared to 474,000 last month, the highest claims number since August 2010. The consensus expected 410,000.
I’m sure this bonehead administration will find some way to keep the eye off of these types of numbers....never let a good crisis go to waste...
I believe they are fearing their buddies in the international community....this was probably a kill mission - no matter whether the targets were arm or not, it’s the right move, but politically for Obama it’s not because of his looney left and he would throw the Seal Team under to save himself
The writer should be thrown under a bus.
I think that in this case the seals may have screwed up..LOL
Everyone should save this collage you’ve posted!
Bfl.
It makes me wonder how the announcement of the upcoming removal of the commanding general in Afghanistan, the Secretary of Defense and Director of the CIA figures into further muddying the waters.
Removal?
Anything 0 does is suspicious to me, he’s been lying his entire life - so why stop now?
He’s been pimping and pandering ever since the CIA and the SEALS got to and killed OBL.
Now, today he’s going to Ft Campbell to ‘thank’ the SEALS - might as well put a target on their backs. All in the name of pumping up his sagging poll numbers!!
Our local news reported the night after the name of the SEAL commander with a picture!! Last name starts with ‘M’ - I couldn’t believe it.
Bump for later
I noticed that but I thought Obama had put the command in writing...
This is what’s known in the duplicitous circles of government as “plausible deniability”. You can also think of it as moral teflon.
Remember, conveniently, there was no video that they were watching in the Situation Room; there may or may not be witnesses. If there are, call them to the witness stand.
he was unarmed when the CIA-led Navy SEALs team dropped in Sunday to capture or kill him.
But the news media displayed a photo shopped reinactment of OBL with an AK-47 just behind him.
This thing has changed so many time, I disbelieve the entire operation.
My money is on the Tora Bora daisey cutter theory. OBL has been dead for years. Obama had to get the media and the birthers off his birth certificate issue. He knows it was a photo shopped fraud.
Why send KILLERS if you don’t intend to kill? That what these HERO’s do, break things and kill bad people.
