"Usama" Bin Laden Killed! Thanks Barrack Obama!
K-Mac - I liked your last post. It was thoughtful and well reasoned. I find I agree with almost every point but the first. I doubt Obama is going to get a lasting "lift" out of this, because we, the public, have very short memories. And, I suspect we've largely forgotten how much terror and destruction Bin Laden has brought to our shores.
In addition, there will be those who just can't help themselves for believing President Obama "ordered" this attack just to guarantee victory in 2012. They never stop to think, "Why didn't he wait until closer to election day?" From reading how closely the situation was monitored, I doubt a flea could have moved in or out of that compound unnoticed.
Is President Obama all "wonderful"? No - he's flawed, just like the rest of us. Was this a gutsy move on his part? You bet! If it had failed, he stood to lose everything. But, he put the interests of his Country above personal interests in "ordering" this attack, and doing it without notifying any of our "allies" or so-called allies (Pakistan). I am seeing a VERY "tough-minded" President here.
OK, so those are my thoughts and I'll fade back into the background now, where I try to stay in these "political debates" that no one wins.

haha, yeah, i already had a few of them on ignore. Not sure I've ever added this many in one day.
Keep in mind.. it is likely that due to the time frames and some of the information so far released on this "courier" that led to the location being discovered... that previous interrogators and operators that were involved in torture are probably the the source of this important information.
I'm surprised you can get so upset over a simple exchange of ideas that are possibly members acting as Devil's advocates to provoke open discussion.
At one time I mentioned your aversion to lifechurch.tv because it seemed contrary to the positions you take here on the forum. You seemed displeased over that reference. Possibly you are also playing Devil's advocate on some of these issues.
sorry!

if i come across someone in real life that I can't talk to or discuss stuff with, without them resorting to having to give their dumbass opinion on everything, I will not be talking to them again. same here. If someone is going to spew stupidity, I am going to flippin' ignore em'
Obama is the Commander-in-Chief, he gets the credit whether you want to give it to him or not.
If this operation had failed and lives were lost as a result of President Obama's decision, all you little crybabies on the right would be shrieking at the top of your lungs about Obama's incompetence, and not the incompetence of the military.
I should give you guys a break though because it's been a rough week for all of you.
First the "long form" and now this. You useless hacks are probably so buttsore, you won't be able to sit down for a month.
Obama showed guts and leadership but some of you are so blinded by your hatred for the man, you still can't give credit where it's due.

I find you have a problem with me and that is fine. Just ignore me like I do the dolts for their ridiculous comments. Trust me, we'll both benefit from it.
