Obama's tacky 'I Shot Bin Laden' ad has turned a military triumph into a
political disaster
By Tim Stanley


Barack Obama’s “I Shot Bin Laden!” ad might be the worst political move he’s
ever made. It tops the list because, unlike his many other foul-ups (50
percent structural youth unemployment, skyrocketing debt, supporting
post-birth abortion), this is a rare example of him getting something
completely right and then turning it into something horribly wrong. The man
is so politically tone deaf he makes Joe Biden look like Machiavelli.

The ad features Bill Clinton celebrating Obama’s decision to send in the
SEALs and kill Osama bin Laden on May 2, 2011. “Suppose the Navy Seals had
gone in there and it hadn't been bin Laden?” says Bill. “Suppose they'd been
captured or killed. The downside would have been horrible for him, but … he
took the harder and the more honourable path and the one that produced, in
my opinion, the best result.” A question then flashes up on the screen that
asks, “Which path would Mitt Romney have taken?” The ad reminds viewers that
Romney once opined that, “It’s not worth moving heaven and earth spending
billions of dollars just trying to catch one person.” The implication is
obvious: Obama killed bin Laden and is a hero; Romney didn’t think it was
worth chasing the terrorist and is a girly-man unworthy of the presidency.

Obama deserves all the praise and glory for killing bin Laden; my only
regret about the episode is that I didn’t get a chance to pull the trigger
myself. And the Pres is wise to use the incident in his election campaign.
In the debates, he should answer every point that Romney makes about the
sluggish economy with, “Yeah, well I shot bin Laden!”

But Obama made a big mistake when he took an unreservedly good decision and
tried to spin it into an attack on Romney. For starters, no one seriously
thinks that Mitt Romney wouldn’t have greenlit the raid on bin Laden’s
compound – as Mitt said, “even Jimmy Carter would have given that order.”
Nor did the Republican think that capturing the terrorist wasn’t an
important job. Obama’s ad quotes Romney rather selectively. In the original
interview, he was asked, “Why haven't we caught bin Laden in your opinion?”
Mitt replied, “I think, I wouldn't want to over-concentrate on bin Laden.
He's one of many, many people who are involved in this global Jihadist
effort. He's by no means the only leader. It's a very diverse group – Hamas,
Hezbollah, al-Qaeda, Muslim Brotherhood and of course different names
throughout the world. It's not worth moving heaven and earth and spending
billions of dollars just trying to catch one person… Global Jihad is not an
effort that is being populated by a handful or even a football stadium full
of people. It is – it involves millions of people and is going to require a
far more comprehensive strategy than a targeted approach for bin laden or a
few of his associates.” In other words, whilst the death of bin Laden would
be a tactical victory, it is only one small part of the wider strategy to
defeat Islamic terrorism. Mitt's nuanced view was confirmed by the fact that
the War on Terror didn’t end the day bin Laden died.

LOL..conservatives are always lying and making excuses to make their
case.

The simple truth is that Obama IS the guy who got Bin
Laden...something NO Republican was able to accomplish.

Want excuses?...vote Republican.

Want results?...vote Obama.

Actually, he's not. We don't know WHO got Bin Laden. They're not
saying.

But when I see that photo of him sitting around staring at a TV screen
in that messy room, I think of you.

The good folks at the RNC have released a video highlighting President
Obama’s penchant for offering excuse after excuse rather take
responsibility for his policy failures.

http://youtu.be/KVDs9mSG3AA

This is one more example of Obama saying one thing while doing another
or trying to have things both ways. He says he is “not gonna make
excuses,” but continues to do so.

As Salena Zito put it in the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, Obama has
blamed the stagnant economy on ATMs, ditches, slurpees, corporate-jet
owners, the TEA Party, Republicans, Japan’s earthquake, the Arab
spring, the Arab summer, George Bush, and Wall Street (Salena Zito,
“Battlegrounds Of Resentment,” Pittsburgh Tribune-Review 8/28/11):

Obama Blamed ATMs And Airport Kiosks For His Failure To Create
Jobs. “[T]here are some structural issues with our economy, where a
lot of businesses have learned to become much more efficient, with a
lot fewer workers. You see it when you go to the bank and use an ATM —
you don’t go to a bank teller. Or you go to the airport, and you’re
using a kiosk, instead of checking in at the gate.” (NBC’s “Today,”
6/14/11)
Obama: The Republicans Are “Sipping On A Slurpee” And “Kicking
Dirt” Onto Democrats. OBAMA: “And we’ve been pushing that car, pushing
it, pushing it, pushing it. The whole time the Republicans have been
standing on the sidelines. They’ve been looking down, fanning
themselves, sipping on a Slurpee. Kicking dirt down into the ditch.
Kicking dirt in our faces. But we kept on pushing” (President Barack
Obama, Remarks, Minneapolis, MN 10/23/10)
Obama Tried To Blame The Japanese Earthquake And Arab Spring For
Poor Economic Numbers. OBAMA: “Let me start by saying a few words
about our economy. There is no doubt this has been a tumultuous
year. We’ve weathered the Arab Spring’s effect on oil and gas prices,
the Japanese earthquake and tsunami’s effect on supply chains, the
extraordinary economic uncertainty in Europe. And recently, markets
around the globe have taken a bumpy ride.” (President Barack Obama,
Remarks, Washington, D.C., 8/5/11)
Obama Says He “Inherited” A Bad Economy. “Lately, Obama and his
aides have taken to saying that they ‘inherited’ a troubled economy, a
more subtle reference to the past at a time that many voters
increasingly see Obama as being part of the problem.” (Peter Wallsten,
“Obama: Bush Put Us In A Hole,” The Washington Post, 8/30/11)
Obama: Problems In Europe “Wash Over Into Our Shores.” “But the
truth of the matter is, is that we now live in a global economy where
everything is interconnected, and that means that when you have
problems in Europe and in Spain and in Italy and in Greece, those
problems wash over into our shores.” (President Barack Obama, Remarks
by the President at a DNC Event in Washington, DC, 8/8/11)

Obama has also blamed Congress even though for the first two years of
the Obama presidency the Obamacrats controlled Congress:

Obama Blame’s Congress. OBAMA: “Well, look, we anticipated that
the recovery was slowing. The economy is still growing, but it’s not
growing as fast as it needs to. I’ve got things right now before
Congress that we should move immediately. And I said so before I went
on vacation and I’ll keep on saying it now that I’m back. We should be
passing legislation that helps small businesses get credit.” (NBC’s
“Nightly News” 8/29/10)
Obama Got Almost Everything He Wanted Out Of The Democrat-
Controlled Congress. “He passed $830 billion in stimulus, $3 billion
for cash for clunkers, $30 billion in small business loans, $30
billion for mortgage modification, the GM-Chrysler bailouts,
ObamaCare, Dodd-Frank, credit card price controls, Build America
Bonds, jobless benefits for a record 99 weeks, and more. The only
priorities that a Democratic Congress blocked were cap-and-tax and
union card check, and both of those would have further damaged growth
and jobs. Even last December, after Republicans had retaken the House,
Mr. Obama won his one-year payroll tax cut, more jobless benefits and
most of what he wanted.” (Editorial, “The Latest Jobs Plan,” The Wall
Street Journal, 9/9/11)
“Mr. Obama Has Been The Least Obstructed President Since LBJ In
1965 Or FDR In 1933, Which Is How We Got Here.” “The larger political
subtext of Mr. Obama’s speech is that if Congress doesn’t pass his
plan, he’ll then campaign against Republicans as obstructionist. Thus
his speech mantra that Congress should ‘pass it right away.’ This
ignores that Mr. Obama has been the least obstructed President since
LBJ in 1965 or FDR in 1933, which is how we got here.” (Editorial,
“The Latest Jobs Plan,” The Wall Street Journal, 9/9/11)

Another Obama excuse is his claim he didn’t know how bad the economy
was even though he said it was historic:

President Obama Claims “We Didn’t Know How Bad It Was.” “President
Barack Obama said Tuesday he wishes he knew the full extent of the
economic crisis when he took office, if only so he could have let
Americans know just how tough the coming years would be. ‘I think we
understood that it was bad, but we didn’t know how bad it was,’ Obama
said in an interview with KIRO in Seattle. ‘I think I could have
prepared the American people for how bad this was going to be, had we
had a sense of that.’” (Jennifer Epstein, “Barack Obama On Economic
Crisis: ‘We Didn’t Know How Bad It Was,” Politico’s “44″, 12/13/11)
Obama: The Economic “Mess Has Been Bigger Than I Think A Lot Of
People Anticipated At The Time.” CNN’S WOLF BLITZER: “When you took
office, you said if I don’t have this done in three years then it’s
going to be a one-term proposition, meaning you’re going to be a one
term president. Do you remember that?” OBAMA: “Well, here’s what I
remember. When I came into office, I knew I was going to have a big
mess to clean up. And frankly, the mess has been bigger than I think a
lot of people anticipated at the time.” (CNN’s “The Situation Room,”
8/16/11)
September 2008: Obama: “We Are Going Through The Worst Financial
Crisis Since The Great Depression.” (Sen. Barack Obama, Remarks During
First Presidential Debate, Oxford, MS, 9/26/08)
October 2008: Obama: “We Meet Here At A Time Of Great Uncertainty.
Our Economy Is In Crisis.” (Sen. Barack Obama, Remarks, La Crosse, WI,
10/1/08)
November 2008: Obama: “We Are Facing An Economic Crisis Of
Historic Proportions.” (President-Elect Barack Obama, Remarks
Announcing Members Of The Economic Team, Chicago, IL, 11/24/08)
A 2008 Report By Obama Advisor Larry Summers Described The
Economic Crisis As “Grim And Deteriorating Rapidly” And Predicted
America Could Lose 4 Million More Jobs Within The Year. “The initial
debate was framed by a fifty-seven-page memo to the President-elect,
dated December 15, 2008, written by Larry Summers, his incoming
director of the National Economic Council. Marked ‘Sensitive and
Confidential,’ the document, which has never been made public,
presents Obama with the scale of the crisis. ‘The economic outlook is
grim and deteriorating rapidly,’ it said. The U.S. economy had lost
two million jobs that year; without a government response, it would
lose four million more in the next year. Unemployment would rise above
nine per cent unless a significant stimulus plan was passed. The
estimates were getting worse by the day.” (Ryan Lizza, “The Obama
Memos,” The New Yorker, 1/30/12)

Obama has made at least two attempts to accept responsibility. Three
years ago, Obama appeared on NBC’s “Today” show and and made his
infamous “one-term proposition” prediction:

“I will be held accountable. You know, I’ve got four years. … A
year from now, I think people are gonna see that we’re starting to
make some progress, but there’s still gonna be some pain out there. If
I don’t this done in three years, then there’s gonna be a one-term
proposition.”

In celebration the three-year anniversary of the Obama “one-term
proposition” day, the RNC produced a video cataloguing Democrat
leaders’ descriptions of the poor economy under President Obama’s
failed leadership.You can watch the “How Democrats Describe the Obama
Economy” video here.
And Obama even admits that we are not better off than we were four
years ago — inviting comparisons to the malaise of Jimmy Carter’s
failed presidency.
It’s way past time for Obama to stop the excuses and accept
responsibility for his failed policies.

The guys who ACTUALLY got bin Laden disagree......

Navy SEALs hit Obama for making Osama Bin Laden raid political

PHOENIX, May 2, 2012- On Tuesday, the political group, Veterans for a
strong America, released an ad saying, “Why does Obama take so much
credit for killing Osama Bin Laden?”

One year ago, Operation Neptune Spear resulted in the killing of Osama
Bin Laden. The Al-Qaeda terror leader had been hiding in Abbottabad,
Pakistan, killing.

One year later, President Barack Obama is launching “Operation Spike
The Football”, as a tough re-election campaign.

The first attack is President Obama's political ad attacking Mitt
Romney, claiming that presumptive Republican nominee wouldn’t have
ordered the kill to take out Bin Laden.

http://communities.washingtontimes.com/neighborhood/conscience-conservative/2012/may/2/navy-seals-hit-obama-making-osama-bin-laden-raid-p/

The ad, narrated by former President Bill Clinton states that Obama
took the “harder and the more honorable path,” in killing the terror
leader.

The ad then displays a banner of text reading, “Which path would Mitt
Romney have taken?”

The ad continues with clips of President Obama announcing the death of
Bin Laden, highlighting just how much Obama overused the word “I,”
instead of the United States for example.

Ever since Osama was announced dead, Obama has run around on a victory
lap claiming that it was his leadership that ultimately killed Bin
Laden.

When in fact, Obama only authorized the operation to take place; he
was not there. The troops killed Bin Laden. Obama and the White House
haven’t given credit to where credit is due.

The Navy SEALs.

Unfortunately for Obama, serving and former Navy Seals aren’t keeping
quiet about his political victory lap, as they’ve come out against
Obama.

"I think every president would have done the same. He is justified in
saying it was his decision but the preparation, the sacrifice - it was
a broader team effort," a former Navy SEAL and Team 6 assault leader
is quoted as saying the Daily Mail Online, "The President and his
administration are positioning him as a war president using the SEALs
as ammunition. It was predictable."

Another serving SEAL Team operator says about the president:

"Obama wasn’t in the field, at risk, carrying a gun. As President, at
every turn he should be thanking the guys who put their lives on the
line to do this. He does so in his official speeches because the
speechwriters are smart. But the more he tries to take the credit for
it, the more the ground operators are saying, “Come on, man!” It
really didn’t matter who was president. At the end of the day, they
were going to go.’

Even the far-left Editor-in-Chief of the Huffington Post, Arianna
Huffington, slammed Obama for making the OBL raid political, saying,
‘...to turn it into a campaign ad is one of the most despicable things
you can do.’

To top off Obama’s inaccurate victory lap, according to the CNSNews’s
database on Afghanistan war casualties, 69% of war casualties in the
country have happened under Obama’s watch since taking office in
January 2009.

That’s nearly 1,275 of the total 1,844 deaths since Operation Enduring
Freedom started in October 2001.

It isn’t clear yet if Obama’s choice of taking all the credit for the
Osama Bin Laden raid has resonated with the American electorate and
has actually resulted in support for the president.

However, what does remain clear is that Obama’s victory dance isn’t
going to end anytime soon. It will continue to be political fodder in
the months ahead of November.

Obama isn’t going to let Americans forget that he was the president
that ordered the killing of the man who massacred 3,000 Americans on
September 11 as they go to vote.

At any rate, it is "despicable" to see the President use the men and
women that protect us everyday as political ammunition in his
reelection bid.

I'm no fan of GWB, but whenever he was talking about admin

Compare with Obama. He prefers to use the word "I", as in "I

you will see what I mean.

To me, that means something.

I have a question. You are one of our beloved lala fringe ultra
liberals. As in "liberal". So, why do you find gay jokes and casual
accusations so amusing ? Aren't you supposed to be supporting the gay
community instead of holding them up as objects of ridicule ? I mean,
Obama used them and then sold them out, and now you.

Seems to me you are actually socially conservative - VERY far right if

April jobs report: Obama’s time grows short on the economy
Posted by Chris Cillizza at 12:29 PM ET, 05/04/2012

The disappointing April jobs report from the Bureau of Labor
Statistics this morning not only complicates the Obama
Administration’s argument that the President’s policies on the economy
are beginning to work but also brings them dangerously close to the
point at which even a substantial recovery might not be fully noticed
by voters.
...
“The economy has made Obama vulnerable, but I don’t see this report
increasing that vulnerability in a material way,” said Tom Gallagher,
a Democratic economics expert.

But, Matt McDonald, who works at Hamilton Place Strategies and is an
adviser to former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney’s presidential
campaign, had a different take on how to read both the April jobs
report and the broader unemployment rate.

“I think we’re seeing a decoupling of the unemployment rate with the
reality that people experience,” said McDonald. “That’s why even with
unemployment falling, three-quarters of Americans think we’re still in
recession.”

The next three months of jobs reports — May and June, in particular —
are absolutely critical to setting the final economic narrative of the
campaign. After that, major changes in how people see the economy and
the direction it’s headed are unlikely.

Ineptocracy (in-ep-toc’-ra-cy) - a system of government where the
least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing,
and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or
succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the
confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.

What I like about this attitude is it works equally well for Iran and the

SOB's going to be killing Bin Laden up to the election.
He'll leak out more of the information gathered as time goes on.
I suspect near the election, he'll even roll out picture of the body -
maybe with him standing over it holding a smoking gun.

Which Romney is it you suggest we vote for? The moderate who designed
a socialized medicine system almost exactly like Obamacare and
supported a woman's right to choose, or the present one that is trying
to court the hard right social conservatives?

Bullshit, he did it then celebrated, unlike GWB who said he had, held
the party and then said it didn't matter.

in Alabama.
