It was a series of things that led us to Osama. Which with any not in place would have meant we Osama would probably still be running around free today.
First boots on the ground. Our military castrating the Taliban in Dec, 2001.
Next our military intelligence which was strengthened in the years following 9/11 and they were given many more tools to work with.
Gitmo which is where we obtained valuable and important information leading to Osama's whereabouts.
Wiretapping, which is where we picked up a call from Osama's personal courier which led us to the address.
Possibly waterboarding. They won't come out yet and admit it but they when asked if waterboarding helped them get info on Osama, they were told that it is an 'Open question'. So we may find out if that helped.
SO there were 4 things that needed to be in place for this to have happened and for us to find and kill the world's number one terrorist and the masterming behind the worst attack on American soil.
1) Our military and the war in Afghanistan..... Bush started and kept supporting......Obama was against it, voted against it and wouldn't vote on funding our troops there.
2) Our military intelligence......Bush made sure they had and could use all the money and tools needed.......Obama has continually fought to cut funding for our intelligence.
3) Gitmo......Bush opened it and it supplied incredible ammounts of intelligence that we will never even know the full extent of.........Obama campaigned on closing it and swore to shut it down and was totally against it
4) Wiretapping........Bush was RIGHT and it worked tapping terrorist phones and suspicious people which led us right to Osama's door........Obama, trying to appease voters claimed it was wrong and was agianst it.
So Bush started and supported everything that worked to capture Osama. Obama was against and fought against everything that worked.
SO what happens?
Obama comes on TV and uses 'I' dozens of times and takes credit for this success and doesn't even give President Bush who put all the pieces in place, a thank you or even an acknowledgment. The United States finding and killing Osama succeeded IN SPITE of Osama fighting against everything that we needed and what worked. What Bush KNEW we needed and would work. Obama is the most arrogant worthless piece of crap President in history.

My gods this is just stupid that this is even an issue.
Why can't you people get it? It is not over? Obama IS the problem of our economy and now he is trying to take credit for something that he fought against every step of the way to try and get votes to continue destroying our economy. He should get very little if any credit for Osama and should get no bounce. People should focus on the facts and that is what he did to our economy. He is doing what most liberals do and deflecting from what is REALLY happening in our country by trying to take glory for something that he tried hard to make fail.
