Read my last post for content. No one killed anyone except for the members of SEAL team SIX. Which POTUS gave the green light is immaterial, but Barry is trying to spin it so he gets the credit. IMHO, it is shameful for any president to say they personally killed anyone, Barry wasn't there. In fact it is against international law to authorize an assassination so is Barry admitting he committed a crime by stating he "killed bin Laden"?
Bush had a hand in making sure the ground work was laid well in advance and that every Special Operations outfit was well informed and had all of the current intelligence information. I applaud W for his proactive actions and if any POTUS deserves any credit, Bush should get the nod for helping those in service to execute the mission and bring a bad man to his well deserved justice.
I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.

Just watch the difference between the arrogance of Obama and Bush in their announcements. Obama makes so much of it about him to try and get the glory and credit when he fought against everythign that Bush put in place that led to Osama. And this is from a site that doesn't really like Bush.

Could any of you Obama supporters see a difference in the two speaches - could you get a sense of who was patting themself on the back and who gave FULL credit to others? Not sure how you spin this, but I'm sure you will. Obama never said the he alone killed Obama, but he did give a very clear impression the HE was instrumental in the process, when in reality, he just gave the ok.
This guy is supposedly such a great communicator, so why is it so hard for him to give FULL credit to those who deserve the FULL credit?
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.
