Obama risked his own entire political future on this, the courage to do the best thing for the country and protecting our standing with moderates in Pakistan and the entire region.

He could have played it safe dropping the bunker busters from 50,000 feet, to get Bin Laden. Had he failed the partisan noise machine would have blamed President Obama and NOT the Navy Seals. And you and others here would have been frothing at the mouths to finish him off. All the collateral human and political damage from taking the safer political path -- including the lives of more American soldiers and citizens in the middle east, was minimized, and the proof of Bin Laden's death was available. Additionally we got a huge amount of intelligence.

A great victory for all Americans, a man who put his political future beneath doing the right thing.

The uber partisans are always first to project on and tag their opponents (in this case the POTUS) as acting only for political gain. With Rove-Limbaugh-Ales and their baaaaaaaah sheep, America is beneath Republican. A very sick era in our country's history.
