Nice dream you have there
Please, you can go back to biblical days to find leaders celebrating the deaths of their rivals. I know it pains you to accept that OBL has bin killed on Obama's watch, but there's absolutely nothing you can do to prevent Obama, as the Commander-in-Chief, from receiving accolades for this monumental occasion.This should not be used for politics.
He doubled our troop strength in that region and turned up the heat in the war in Afghanistan. I give Bush credit for taking the war to them in Afghanistan, but with Bush, that war took a back seat to Iraq.What has Obama done different than Bush for him to take credit.
Umm, as Commander-in-Chief, Obama is the leader of our military. That aside, those involved in taking OBL out are American heroes tonight.It is the Military that should get credit not politicians
am i really the only pessimist here?
No it isn't. We are better than they are.

what are you pessimistic about?
You mean because Leon Panetta was just appointed to replace Gates as Secretary of Defense and suddenly Osama is dead?
Maybe you were living in cave the last decade, but it was Cheney and Rummy that got us into that mess.
Obama has been trying to get us out in a responsible manner.
Does that mean we can repeal the Patriot Act?
I must be getting jaded. This is anti-climactic to me...
I mean, I'm glad! But I don't really expect that much will change.
The media totally stole Obama's thunder tonight.

Well I mean, our original mission has been accomplished.
1) I'm for not giving Obama too much of the credit for this one. It happened under his watch, is all.
2) I don't think in the grand scheme of the War on Terror and our ongoing operations in Afghanistan that this is going to make all that much of a difference.
I am glad that the mother****er is dead though.
I'm listening to Obama right now. He said "I" at least 10 times while describing what led up to it.
To be fair though, he did laud the military for the last 10 years and the whole effort in Afgahnistan.I'm listening to Obama right now. He said "I" at least 10 times while describing what led up to it.
