Again...another example of extreme ODS. Truly truly sad and petty.
The military deserves pretty much all the credit........
.......Obama deserves credit for saying "Yes, kill Osama"........his contribution and involvement.

9/11 is much different from the death of osama. Regardless, shortler after many in the left started the truther movement and blamed Bush, not osama, for the 9/11 terror attacks.
If you feel Obama deserves credit above and beyond his involvement......."Saying YES"..........
......let it be known. What else did Obama do?
.
.

and of course...you felt the same way about the capture of Saddam Hussein during Bush's administration, right?
You can start with the fact that Obama promised during his campaign that he would put the focus back on those who attacked our country, away from Iraq..and would actively seek to capture OBL....and he did that.
Its sad that your ODS prevents you from seeing that.

So you really think that is the extent of Obama's involvement in this? Are you really that naive? Do you honestly believe that he hadn't had tons of briefings with military intelligence people? Do you think he was in no way involved in the planning of this?
Its sad, that at a time when this country should really be coming together, the ODS crowd cannot stomach giving credit where credit is due. They would rather continue in their efforts to draw this country apart then admit that the man that they hate did something great for this country. Truly sad and pathetic.
I thank God that we have a President that put the focus back where it belonged in the first place.....mission accomplished.
Yeah right....G.W. "Mission Accomplished" Bush wouldn't know anything about a photo-op....riiiiiiiiight!!!!!
YouTube - Bush: Truly not concerned about bin Laden (short version) The difference between a President that knows what he is doing....and one who doesn't. Thank you to the US Military...and thank you to President Obama for restoring honor and integrity to the White House and the United States
Bush laid down the "yellow brick road"....puh-lease. Perhaps two bricks before he decided to build a detour to Iraq and use the yellow bricks to take our focus away from where it belonged.
Bush's yellow brick road would never have led to Bin Laden.....sorry.

It all depends on what you mean by the "truther" movement. If you mean that Bush was actively involved in 911....that is an extreme fringe group.
If you mean that Bush had received information that OBL was planning to use planes as human missles and fly them into skyscrapers...and didn't act upon it...that is a much larger group.
Regardless.....The right-wing has clearly shown how much more petty they are than the left. At least, for the sake of the country, the left was able to put aside their differences with GWB and come together as a country. A great deal of the right-wing is showing that they are incapable of this.
boy, this is really killing some of you hardcore members of the right... the seals got the job done, obama gave the green light for the operation..if this operation had went bad, you would be quick to point the finger at obama, and lay all blame at his feet...this is hillarious watching you guys squirm....Tell me.......
.......do you think a President with no foregin policy experience and ZERO military experience played some vital role?
.......besides saying "Yes, kill Osama"?

I wanted him caught alive, interrogated, and punished (whether that be death or jail). Although I'm not against him being dead, I would have much rather preferred his capture over his death.
absolutely...'cause he would have taken all the grief had it gone bad..at least be honest and admit that much.So Obama said "Yes, Kill Osama".......
........lets give him credit.

if bush had been the one to give the order, and they got him, Bush would have gotten credit, limbaugh, hannity, levin, coulter and every other minor league conservative pundit would have have tripped over their tongues and over each other to make sure bush got credit...this would have been used to support everything from both wars, to justify the 'waterboarding' or the 'enhanced interrogation techniques'...the right would have made bush out to be the second coming of christ, and would have lobbied to have his likeness put on mt. rushmore...Only if his name was Bush.......or if he had a (R) after his name.......

The sad thing...digs....is that after 911....the left really stopped for a while and came together despite their differences with GWB. The right-wing is unable to do this.
It truly shows how petty they are.
9/11 is much different from the death of osama. Regardless, shortler after many in the left started the truther movement and blamed Bush, not osama, for the 9/11 terror attacks.
Obama still chose to continue on the mission though, it was more then saying "yes."
And yes, god damn that evil right-wing who are clearly the only people making this political and attempting to divert credit away from individuals for political gains and to push their political agenda.
Your feigned outrage is pathetic Disney and your words show how hollow it truly is. Are some on the right acting as dispciable as you? Absolutely. That's no more the definition of "The right wing" then you are of the left wing. It just shows there's ridiculous hyper partisans on both sides that don't give a damn about anything except for thier political agenda.
Disneydude's point was that post 9/11, Bush enjoyed up to a 92% approval rating. A significant number of Democrats overlooked, for a long period of time, their anger over the 2000 election, to support GWB. Obama, got a 6 point bump, so far anyway. It cannot be said that Republicans are setting aside their partisanship in the same numbers and that's a shame.
The mastermind/financier of 9/11 is dead on President Obama's order. Surely that is cause for all Americans to at least appreciate.
If you answered YES......
Congratulations, you have the same intellect, guts, ability, and capability of our Community-Orgainzer-In-Chief...... Barack HusSame Obama.......who also answered YES, which thereby brought an end to his contribution and involvement in the planning, execution, and situation alltogether.
If you believe a President with zero foreign policy experience and not a shred of military experience had anything more to do with Osama's killing than "Yes"........you would sorely be mistaken.
Let us congratulate Obama on saying YES, albeit a nutless monkey could have also done that job.
Let's be intellectually honest here for a second (I know it's difficult for you). How much contribution does any president have in the planning and execution of most military actions?
That's pretty much all a commander-in-chief does, is say yes or no to plans that other people bring to him. He doesn't exactly have the time to plan all that stuff out himself.
First off....attempting to compare 9/11 to the death of Osama Bin Laden is a hollow comparison. The impact emotionally, economically, pyschologically, and societaly on this country was magnitudes large from 9/11 than in regards to the death of Osama Bin Laden. No, you're not going to have the exact same situation happen with the killing of a man 10 years after the fact responsible for the attacks as you had when 3,000+ people died, two massive buildings were demolished, the heart of our military attacked, our economy taking a dive, and all of it occuring live on television for people to see. To expect those two situations to have the same, or even largely similar, effects is highly questionable.
Second off...you didn't have Conservatives coming out on 9/11 going "THIS IS ALL CLINTON'S FAULT!" or "Thank God we have Bush in office instead of Clinton to show what a REAL President will do" or "Thank you President Bush for restoring the HONOR of this country with your reaction to 9/11 compared to that guy who got a blowjob". Yes, Democrats AND Republicans banded together. BOTH of them. Neither were taking partisan shots by and large. That's not the case here. Yes, have some on the right been taking shots about how Obama doesn't deserve much credit, or trying to immedietely turn it into a torture discussion? Absolutely. On the flip side, you also have MSNBC taking shots at Bush on Day One alluding to "mission accomplished" and you have liberals all around, such as Disney, immedietely using it as a political tool to bash the Bush Administrations policies. So the lack of civility and "Coming together" that was present during 9/11, shown by the majority on BOTH sides of the aisle, isn't here right now...but at no fault to any individual side, as both sides are slinging it.
Third...I absolutely agree its something to appreciate. And actually, I think if you'll look at most conservative media, most conservative posters here, and other such things you'll actually find that most DO give credit and are appreciative of what happened. The issue for people like Disney, is that if they dare suggest that Bush ALSO deserves credit somehow in his mind that translates to "Obama doesn't deserve credit", a notion that frankly blows my mind at the illogic of it. Are there people on the right acting idiotically at this? Absolutely, there's a poll going on up in the "polls" section right now that highlights such idiocy regarding this issue...but I do not think its as wide spread as Disney and now yourself make it out to be that Republicans are not giving Credit to Obama.
Depends on the President's military experience.........
