Obama taking credit for the Bin Laden hit is like Nixon taking credit for the moon landing Imagine if President Nixon had decided to base his 1972 re-election campaign on the boast that he landed on the moon. His predecessors tried and failed for eight years. It wasn't an easy decision--what if something went wrong? But that's why you hire a president, to make those gutsy calls. Which path would George McGovern have taken? That's analogous to President Obama's effort to campaign on the killing of Osama bin Laden. His absurd braggadocio is turning one of the few successes to occur under his leadership into a political liability. I know this much. The SEALs have had enough. Navy SEALs blasted Barack Obama for taking credit for the killing of Osama Bin Ladent. One SEAL went as far as to say Obama did not even make the call. ‘In years to come there is going to be information that will come out that Obama was not the man who made the call. “ This was devastating. Leave it to the British press to get to the facts of the matter. Mitt Romney had a good line when he stated that "even Jimmy Carter" would have ordered the UBL hit. Not only that, even Moonbeam Kucinich would have as well. And then there's this: • Remember when Obama threatened to prosecute the CIA interrogators whose work led to the Bin Laden killing? • Remember when Obama put three (3) Navy SEALs on trial on the word of a murderous, scumbag al-Qaeda terrorist? • Remember when Obama installed a man who had defended Al Qaeda terrorists as #3 in the Justice Department, in charge of Gitmo terrorist trials? • And remember when Obama denounced the same enhanced interrogation techniques that led trackers to Bin Laden? There's hypocrisy. There's Democrat hypocrisy. And then there's Obama.

$10,000 bounty offered for Obama’s college transcripts If Andrew Breitbart were still around, he might have offered something like $100,000 for Obama’s college transcripts. According to the Daily Caller, some group called “The Trenches” is offering a $10,000 “bounty” to anyone who could get Obama’s authentic college records. Obama for some reason has made sure to seal his college records, as if he has something to hide from the American people. Of course, we all know how liberals love bounties. Remember how excited they were when the New Black Panthers put out a bounty on George Zimmerman’s head? Something tells me that they wouldn’t like this bounty though. A faceless organization calling itself “The Trenches” is offering a $10,000 reward to anyone who can provide an authentic copy of President Barack Obama’s course transcripts from his days at Occidental College, Harvard University or Columbia University. “You’ve failed, media,” an undated statement on its one-page website reads. “You’ve had over three years to vet President Barack Obama. Yet in three years in office and over a year of campaigning beforehand, you have either been oddly uninterested or purposefully ignorant of Barack Obama’s educational history.” Finding the president’s transcripts, the message adds, “would represent more intellectual curiosity about the leader of the free world than the media has demonstrated since Obama won the Democrat primary.” George W. Bush’s college transcripts were released in 1999.
