If one wants to talk about dropping the ball we need look no further than Billy Clinton.

Further, Obama can take credit for authorizing the operation but again, full credit goes to the operators who took Osama out. It's the same way I can take credit for my wife slaving for hours to make an elaborate dinner for 10 guests because I invited them.

I agree 100%

Obama focused our efforts on Afghanistan and I think is a major factor related to getting Bin Laden.

Stop arguing who or what...The current administration did well to focus more on Pakistan. US can take credit as a whole, because we pushed and pushed and it finally paid off.

This is a great step to 'open' Pakistan even more now that we caught the f***** hiding there...after all this denying by their intelligence and other authority figures.

Now violence will probably go up...but then again this fight is never over...

That's like saying he looked in the freezer after not finding anything to eat in the fridge. Just saying that looking in Afghanistan wasn't a stroke of genius considering Osama fought there against the Russians. Besides, he was found in Pakistan.

That raises another point. We can't trust the Pakistani government. They HAD to know Osama was there all along and protected him.

I watched the speech and if i'm not mistaken Obama gave the credit to those who carried out the operation. I don't know who said Bush dropped the ball I certainly didn't. But E61silver is right about one thing it would be nice if people would stop the killing. It really is pointless.

I watched it too. It was all a bit surreal. I did think he should have prioritized the mention of the people who were doing the heavy lifting before he talked about all he did. Anyway, I'm referring back to the original post by Stan that vilifies Bush.

I too would like the killing to stop. Unfortunately there are too many people filled with hate and breeding more hate towards America, the West, and whatever religious group that is disagreed with. Those people will not stop killing.

It's all good. Nothing to do with Obama. I look forward to seeing him out, it will happen.

Hearing that Bin Laden was buried at sea reminded me of “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen” When Megatron’s mangled body was dropped into the abyss. I just hope there is no sequel to this story.
