Obotulism will not get such praise from me. May God continue to curse his presidency.

Brennan has to be the biggest suck-up doofus since Lanny Davis.

The seals did it. The original tip came during the Bush years. This is without a doubt Bush's fault.

All hail the King on his mighty war horse..leading the charge from an airconditioned bunker.
Believe me..all these Seals had been on lots of the missions before with equal risks and not as much reward. They have been in this fight for at least 4 or 5 deployments before they even get on this team. It was just another day at their office.

What do expect? Obama inherited the intel.

this weekend was such a tense time in the White House that Obama only got in nine holes of golf.

Says it all...

Wasn’t this taken right out of a Jack Ryan movie? Was this from “Sum of all fears”?

Hey LA Times. Here's a version of the story that didn't come straight from the WH, like yours did.

A gallant man Obama is.

Listening to the plan and saying "go ahead" most likely cost him at least one golf outing.

Bravery beyond the pale augmented by the greatest of self sacrifice!

Wow, he found time to dine and party and yuk it up and alas ONLY 9 holes of golf while our brave Seals were preparing to go into the hideout of the world’s most wanted terrorist.

Don’t these tools know that their hero Zero looks even worse when one considers the scenario?

An operation made possible using techniques Obama has since outlawed at a facility he promised to shut down.
