Credit for OBL Death

Amazing to me that this is being spun. By either side. Look: somehow or other, we got solid intel that led us to discover Osama bin Laden's location. We investigated further, confirmed a few things, maybe watched the compound to learn the daily routine, etc. Undoubtedly it was scanned and analyzed by any number of most-likely classified technologies. In addition, the Navy SEAL team practiced that mission for weeks beforehand to iron out any kinks in timing, logistics, and planning. Then Obama, through the appropriate chain of command, gave the order (or at least a green light) to proceed with the mission. His underlings issued the appropriate orders to make it happen. So, it happened. This extreme oversimplification of a world-class, complex operation has been brought to you by the letter P: Please stop trying to spin obvious shit. Bush might have, or could have, but didn't. Clinton - same deal. Carter - doesn't belong in this conversation. Romney - like all candidates running for president, should be aware of how easy it is to say "I would have done x in heartbeat." Maybe, maybe not. Obama can take credit for a gutsy decision that wound up working out extremely well, given all the possible failure scenarios. The pictures would be nice, but no one has been bitching about them since July of last year, so stop bitching about them now. Can we please start talking about things that are really substantive to the upcoming election, like sunset provisions, taxes, the documented destructive shortsighted amoral stupidity that is supply-side economics? Pretty please? The letter P is asking nicely.
