So is Obama a hero now or what?

  I figure, for once, The One did the right thing by allowing the military and special forces to have their way. I'm happy about that. He could have 1) chickened out 2) had them capture him and move the trial to New York   3)  waited for the next good time when he had the courage   (looks like he had already waited a long time) 4) buried the guy there or something  5) he could have informed the Pakistanis the raid was taking place.
  But he didn't. He did the right thing. And for that I'm thankful.
  And the summabitch got what he deserved.
  Now does that mean I like Barack Hussein Obama any more than before?
  Uh, no.
  Does that mean there is any way in hell I'd ever pull the lever for him in the voting booth?
  Nuh uh.
  And I'm just cynical enough to believe that what Obama did today was because he thought it was politically expedient for him to do it now since he was bleeding from The Donald's body blows, high gas prices and a stumbling economy. The WHC dinner was a pretty nasty and revealing stab at Caesar (or at least Caesar's Palace.)
  So it was politically convenient for The One to get his chance at a 9/11 moment, as some of his people had lamented.
  And this was it.
  After all, Obama has shown that all his protestations about saving lives and not taking military action mean little to him when it comes to military decisions, such as eliminating Gaddafi (or whatever it is we are doing to him) who had, admittedly, given up his nukes and was said to be cooperating more than other Arab leaders in cleaning out the Al Qaeda nests.
  It was rumored that the whole Gaddafi thing was orchestrated by Clinton and Powers and Obama had just acquiesced to their schemes.
  Indeed Obama is involved in 3 military endeavors, when Bush was never involved in more than 2. 
  The years of planning that went into last night's success were done by the military; for a civilian to take credit, as if he had personally been on board the helicopter, is fallacious and arrogant. 
  But he could have been more worried about what the Arab/Muslim leaders thought, again, rather than what his own people thought.
  In the past, he's had a tin ear with regard to the needs of the people. Terribly insensitive and absent in national emergencies, he was right there in front of the camera this time, mentioning "I" and "mine" as usual, as often as he could. 
  Stephen Hunter at Powerline sums last night's speech best (and what was it with the timing....if what people suspect is true, then that ought to speak volumes about what was on the mind of Dear Leader)
Any joy one might feel in the intelligence of our analysts and the bravery of our door kickers was significantly diminished by Obama's malignant narcissism. The first part of the announcement, evoking 9/11, was vulgarly overwritten as per Obama's view of himself as some kind of gifted orator. The adjective bloated compote was unworthy of the subject, banal and self-indulgent.
  What's difficult to believe is that the exuberant rejoicers who were carrying "4 more years" signs immediately following the [Osama] announcement weren't astro turfers, set up by an administration hoping to gain from this incident.
  Question. Who looks smallest in this picture. Who looks the most nervous. Who looks very, very uncertain. Who looks ANGRY, like he had been overruled. 
  Just sayin.' Read this and decide, remembering that the source is anonymous and therefore suspect.

  Well, at least he wasn't golfing.
  And at least this once he did the right thing this time. That's something to treasure, considering the harm bin Laden has done to the world and to this country.
  Will it benefit him in 2012, which seemed to be more important to his supporters than the actual raid itself? 
  Who knows.
  We still have a bumbling incompetent group of people in charge.
  Bush had a 90% approval rating following 9/11.
