"This just shows that our military can save the day in spite of a weak Commander in Chief".
Wait for it.

"You go to war with the military you have. The Bush-Cheney Pentagon made this possible. Obama should thank them."

He's also smart enough to realize that there are political costs to putting yourself at the center of every crisis, a la 43.

6. Well Invading Somalia Didn't Work Out So Well the Last Time |
|
but the knuckledraggers blame that on Clinton rather than remember that 41 decided to get his war on one last time.

11. Now the moron Freepers are speculating about |
|
how the rescue was done. The 101st Keyboard Division knows it all, no doubt.
Buncha morons. Most of them can't walk to the corner and back without breathing hard, but they're experts on special ops strategy.

15. Sorry, it won't work. Obama will get a huge surge in public approval for |
|
handling this crisis in a mature, but firm, manner. If the RW tries what you suggest they'll end up even lower in the eyes of the nonfreeped American public. I say give them enough rope...
