Just the opposite, actually.
Reports at the time say that 'bamma had been given 3 opportunities in the previous month or so to take OBL out - he always said to wait, he's have to confer with Valerie. She always said no. He obeyed.
So the 'over riders' got Valerie out of the WH, out of reach, by some ruse - grabbed 'bummer off the golf course, sat him the corner and blocked any exit attempt - ditto, joe was blocked in. He was told it was going down - watch.
All one has to do is look at the photo - that's hardly the picture of the 'most powerful man in the world;, the "Commander in Chief" overseeing such an operation. It's a whipped puppy, confused, scared, not knowing what to do without his Commie handler there to tell him.
