Obama: The Bin Laden Bounty Hunter

-
Roanoke Times, 5-2-11, Pg 1: Osama Bin Laden Dead
-
What a difference ten years can make! When Bush announced a big reward for Osama Bin Laden (Dead or Alive) the liberal-media went “postal” labeling Bush a “Cowboy”.
But now when our military was finally able to track him down and kill him the liberal media is playing “Hail to the Chief” and giving vivid first hand accounts of Obama’s purported intense personal involvement in each step of the mission.  These tracking skills must have been based on his personal experience as a Chicago Neighborhood Organizer.
-
And what’s with this dude, who chastised  Bush for the sins of water-boarding and imprisonment at GITMO, who now is ordering our troops to “terminate with extreme prejudice”. Obama’s announcement that “Justice has been done” is interesting; perhaps a better phrase would be that “Vengeance has been done”.  Prior to this,  Justice could only be dispensed by a Federal Court in NYC.
-
Based on Obama’s Predator strikes and now the Osama termination, Obama has decided that sudden and violent death is a much preferred choice than imprisonment, interrogation and subsequent military tribunals. Apparently this is a Big moral improvement over the Bush process which was labeled as immoral and an “international embarrassment”.
Isn't it ironic and interesting that the initial leads that led to Bin Laden were originally developed by the "aggressive interrogation" of those poor and mistreated nice folks at GITMO!
-
Aside from all the Obama and liberal-media hypocrisy – it’s a very good thing that Bin Laden is gone – it will bring closure to thousands of families -- let’s all thank our soldiers for one more courageous and high risk mission accomplished in an ongoing war with no visible end in sight.
