The title should say "PARTISAN REPUBLICANS SLAM the prez and some of them were SEALS!"

First quoted former SEAL is a current Republican Senator. Next one is the famous sniper Kyle, who seems to be good at making things up (while a great shot....it seems funny he claims to have punched out Jesse Ventura).

This is just the same old Republican media, giving out the same, tired lies. BUT...EVEN IN the story, you find this statement from a former SEAL: "Obama inherited a very robust package with regards to special ops and the intelligence community. But Obama deserves credit because he got bin Laden – you can’t take that away from him.

‘My friends that work in Special Operations Command (SOCOM) that have been on video teleconferences with Obama on these kill or capture situations say that Obama has no issue whatsoever with making decisions and typically it's kill. He’s hitting the kill button every time. I have a lot of respect for him for that."

So maybe the title should read : "PARTISAN REPUBLICANS SLAM the prez and some of them were SEALS but some give him credit for killing bin Laden and say you can't take that away from him!"

Headlines are nice.

Reading stories are nice.

Reality is better.

Fact is, Obama made a gutsy call and bin Laden is dead, and we have thousands of documents that aid our battle with Al Qaeda! IF you don't like THAT....well......kinda suggests you don't really like America, eh?

Bush was the worst President in the history of the US.

SEALs slam Obama for using them as 'ammunition' in bid to take credit for bin Laden killing during election campaign

By Toby Harnden

PUBLISHED: 18:35 EST, 30 April 2012 | UPDATED: 10:42 EST, 1 May 2012

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.

Besides the ad, the White House is marking the first anniversary of the SEAL Team Six raid that killed bin Laden inside his compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan with a series of briefings and an NBC interview in the Situation Room designed to highlight the ‘gutsy call’ made by the President.
