All About Obama: Who’s politicizing bin Laden kill?
Michelle Malkin ^ | 5/2/2011 | Michelle Malkin

Posted on 05/02/2011 5:29:18 AM PDT by Lakeshark

Leftists are swarming Twitter to chastise any conservatives who dare give any credit to President Bush for his resolve and role in leading the post-9/11 counterrorism/national security response to the worst attack on American soil.

Meanwhile, Democrat hacks are burning the midnight oil making this All About Obama.

It's wonderful news about the Seal team and how they took him out. Does anyone think if this had happened in 2007, the operation itself wouldn't be criticized excessively and berated to death by the lice infested MSM leftists of our day?

Wonder if we got any of this information leading up to Bin Laden’s kill from “enhanced interrogation techniques”...

We got him in spite of Obama, he’s more interested in getting our military Homosexualized than he is about any war on terror. What a Joke. Bush deserves all the credit.

I’m a lot more concerned about my own back yard. “My own back yard” being Free Republic and the amazing numbers of lunatics who have already developed “That’s not John Wilkes Booth” type conspiracy theories.

Yes, look at the timeline - we got information regarding the courier by interrogating KSM at Gitmo. And, don’t forget it’s our own Chairman O that condemned water-boarding and wanted to shut Gitmo down - now he takes credit for the result of both.

If he had any amount of class, he would have invited Bush to help make the announcement. Reagan did the same with Carter and the hostage situation. It made Reagan bigger than life to do something so noble. This President would have benefitted by and unselfish gesture but I don’t believe he is capable.

OBL was dead on 9/12. Just a matter of time. Way to go SEALS!

I’m glad OBL is dead and I’m happy it was a up close and personal kill. What I am not glad about is that they dumped his body in the sea.

We have a very very odd reaction to the death of the guy. The display in front of the White House last night just felt weird. This morning the news nerds are acting kind of weird too. Especially Geraldo.

Can’t shake my feeling that something is just weird.....

Ungh. Do we have a few who are saying this is not Bin Laden and that we forged his DNA?

*Sigh*

the good news: Killing Bin Laden will be about as big a bump in the polls for Bambi as his "civilty" speech was in Arizona.

This event won't hide his incompetence for long.

One terrorist down. A billion to go. This should do two things:

1) Trigger the sleeper cells allowed to infiltrate this country, to retaliation.

2) Assure barry's re-election.

I, for one, have difficulty believing anything that emanates from the ruling class any more, left or right.

This, specifically, seems to defy logic, lack proof and be all too convenient for our wounded CIC.

Yes, sir, I remain skeptical.

You are free to call me names.

My understanding, from listening to the left back in the GW Bush days, is that Bin Ladin was the end all and be all of the war on terror...

So, now that he’s dead, I guess we can pull all troops out of Iraq and Afghanistan...

First they said he was killed LAST WEEK and did the DNA test....now he was killed just hours before Obama went on TV.

How did they do DNA in a few hours?? WHY did they leae all the other people at the house and did they REALLY take his body on the helicopter when they had a helicopter FULL of the OTHER helicopters SEALS???

Buried at SEA??? Where's the PTHER bodies that were killed????Something is a little fishy.

Arab Street has a factory of conspiracies

The more the story changes the worst for Obama.

I remember, but now the goal posts have been moved before our very eyes.

The leftists at the MSM are (unfortunately) very good at this.......

I’m not sure folks recognize the high potential for retaliatory terror attacks.

I agree about the sleeper cells. This could speed up the timeline of any proposed terrorist attacks in this country. Al Quada will be desperate to have a publicity “win” after this. It will also most likely create confusion in the Al Quada heirchy and this could also be a chance to take out more high value targets. Zawahiri will most certainly take over. I think he was pretty much the operational leader anyways. Is there an opportunity during this confusion to take him out?

Well put.The party at the White House was disturbing.

Last night was a time to pray and remember those who perished on 9-11.

Obviously, I’m glad the SOB is dead (too bad his body was treated with kid gloves).

But next time you’re getting groped at the airport, remember that killing OBL really doesn’t change much.

I wonder if I'm the only one who is rather nonplussed about this Osama Death thing. I'm not sure how it changes anything. The dollar is still dying. I still cannot play Poker online. Obamacare is still law. And there are still millions of Muslim who would set off a nuclear weapon in NYC if they could.
