SEALs slam Obama for using them as 'ammunition' in election campaign

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.

I don't believe he's dead. Show me the body, show me DNA from a family member. I believe absolutely nothing that comes out of the Obummer White House. Watching the 60 Minutes interview with Jose Rodriguez he said something I will never forget. He said enhanced interrogations saved lives, which I certainly believe. He goes on to say under Obummer no one is captured anymore, only killed. How does that make sense? I thought we were fighting Al Qeada and trying to save as many lives as possible. Top stop future attacks before heppen. Don't just you think that getting information on possible upcoming terrorist attacks would make good sense? Obummer is an idiot. The world's most wanted terrorist and he is supposedly killed and his body dumped into the ocean. And pigs will start flying tomorrow and Jimmy Hoffa is alive and running for president of the Teamsters.

A SEAL...any SEAL...is the epitome of manliness, courage, and training.

The Obamaloon, (aka Cretin-in-Chief), is the epitome of metrosexuality, liver-lipped spinelessness, and wimpoidness.

I really, really, really dispise the loon.

And (guaranteed), so does every SEAL.

Bin Laden bin dead for a while. Buried under tons of rock.

Obama 'killed' Bin Laden's Mystery. Those people in Pakistan were members of his family, hidden there by the Paki's to protect them. The man they claim was ole Bin was just a relative. There is a simple reason the body was dumped into the ocean. It wasn't him. It would not do to have 'proof' others could independently verify.

A 'symbol' was removed , officially. That is really what it was all about.

I certainly don't believe he died in this SEAL raid.

One thing that made me more suspicious;

On Sunday, Chris Wallace was interviewing John Brennan, the president's chief counter-terrorism adviser.
Wallace asked him a question about the Bin Laden photos;

"The Obama administration has refused to allow any pictures, any videos from the bin Laden raid a year ago to be made public...Why?

The first thing this guy said was;

"Well, first of all, there is no doubt whatsoever that bin Laden is dead. I think by all accounts, it was a very successful raid on that compound in Abbottabad."

Now, why would he make such a statement? That's not what Wallace asked. He made no statement that cast any doubt on the success of the raid. Just why no pictures? It seemed like such a CYA answer it made alarm bells go off for me.

Clintonesque type response.

Yes, Osama is dead.... Not we killed him during this raid and know he’s dead

Yes, there was a successful raid - again no detail on “ successful because we killed Osama during this raid.

“Mr Obama took ‘the harder and the more honourable path’ in ordering that bin Laden be killed.”

lol...what was so “hard” about that decision? It was a no-brainer.

“I don’t believe he’s dead.”

I believe the SEALs that he is. Obama may lack both credibility and integrity, but the SEALS have it in spades....If they say he’s dead, bank on it, he is.....

It came when O'bama was trying to decide between the 9-iron and the pitching wedge.

“A man’s most valuable trait is a judicious sense of what not to believe.” Euripides

How come active duty SEALs can point out that the King wears no clothes at all, but a Marine does so and is given his walking papers and a less than honorable discharge?
I’m thinking because 0 wouldn’t dare issue a royal writ against the men who provided the only good news during his mis-administration over the last 3 1/2 years.
The Marine was railroaded by a king the English would have deposed.

I agree. He was dead long ago. We "kept him alive" to help keep the American public as much engaged as possible and to be able to continue the war against the Islamist. The Islamist "kept him alive" because he was their symbol and a way to recruit.

Both sides needed him alive.

I wonder if we were after something else since we used our special Black hawk helicopters. When we lost a copter, the deniabilty was shot so we made up the story of killing Obama.

It is suspicious that he was dumped without even have some allies come in and confirm he was killed. It is hard to believe anything our government tells us.

The "harder path" for Hussein would have been to deny approval for the operation. It would have been his Waterloo.

I believe they killed somebody, but not bin Laden. How many doubles you think he had? I am glad the SEALs are on our side, but I am also tired of SEAL this and SEAL that. From the start of the operation they should have been referred to as US SPECIAL FORCES, with no mention of what Special Forces element, whether it was SEALS, Army Rangers, Marine Force
Recon, Delta Force, or whatsover. This constant singling out of one special forces unit over an another is not a good thing. Anyone that knows a thing about the military knows this. This does not include Barry the Destroyer. How many operations did the SEALs participate in during Vietnam that was touted by Nixon’s White House. None. There was a time that US Special Operations teams operated in secrecy. The very nature of the operations demand this. Then along comes the goofus Obama who gets off by pretending he’s Rambo.
