On al-Qaeda and Osama bin Laden:

Statement from Vice President Biden on Mitt Romney’s VFW Remarks

>snip<

On al-Qaeda and Osama bin Laden:

“One thing the Governor did not talk about today was al-Qaeda and Osama bin Laden. That’s not surprising. When he last ran for President, Governor Romney was asked what he would do about bin Laden. He said then: ‘it is not worth moving heaven and earth spending billions of dollars just trying to catch one person.’ We know how Obama answered that question: by ordering our intelligence services to leave no stone unturned in the hunt for bin Laden, and then authorizing one of the highest risk missions ever to capture or kill our number one enemy.

“Thanks to President Obama’s leadership, bin Laden is dead and General Motors is alive — and everything we have learned from Governor Romney today and during this campaign tells the American people that a Romney presidency would have resulted in just the opposite.”

announced that Bin Laden was dead was all the proof we needed to know that ReTHUGs understood what that meant for their bankrupt ideology that they alone can keep America safe.
First of all 9/11 happened under their watch and in one raid Obama destroyed their ridiculous myth.
ReTHUGs will rue the day they decided to use Bin Laden to instil fear in the American people and Obama is now the hero on that one.
