Wait a minute I will be right back. I am going out to see if hell is freezing over!

The hunt for OBL has been underway since long before Obama. Yes the right opportunity finally came along....has nothing to do with Obama, it is merely a time sensitive incident...as in it was only a matter of time until he was eliminated...only a matter of time.

He does not get credit for the initiative to pursue OBL. Like the many other things Obama claims to have "inherited", he inherited the hunt for OBL.

Yes, I will give credit where and when it is due. It did happen on his watch.

Related to the subject: His current flaunting the event in the ruse of the anniversary celebration of the event is an example of his self centered need to flaunt the office. The constant reminding us when he does something like saying....as commander in chief I.....there is no need to remind the troops he is talking to of the rank of his office!!! But HE NEEDS IT!

And that is why it is very hard to acknowledge some of the good things he does as most everything is measured in terms of what is in it for him.

That is how I see it!!
