What led us to finding Osama?

Where did I say Obama defunded our militray intelligence? He has FOUGHT to cut all of our militray spending.

Yet again a total lie.

Obama never defunded or tried to "shut down" the CIA or military intelligence.

Bush didn't invent them, either.

What caught Bin Laden was intel that started before Obama was even in office...it was on going. The wing nut liberals want to give Obama full credit even though he had nothing to do with the intel that was gathered over a period of 5 years. I suppose since Obama has failed to do anything good since he's been in office, one bit of good news should be celebrated as HIS big victory when it was many other people as well, including Bush.

Osama would still be very well hidden in plain sight had it not been for the interrogation intel during Bush's term...that truth can not be spun. And if Bush was still president, nobody here can say that the pieces of the puzzle would not have come together...it would only be speculation.

Bush also knew that making Bin Laden bigger than life and constantly telling the media he was a top priority was not going to make it easier to find him, it would only make Bin Laden more cautious.

I get that you Bush worshippers are trying to denigrate President Obama, but the contortions that you go through are laughable. That it was solely the intel that was gathered prior to 2008 that was responsible for the death of Bin Laden is ridiculous.

The one crime that I thought Bush should have been impeached for was the diversion of resources from the war against our actual enemy that killed Americans on American soil to Iraq.

Yet when Bush is credited for the failing economy, they fall all over themselves trying to pin it on President Obama...

I was going to say, "You can't make this sh*t up"... But the Bush-worshipers can.... rofllol

If the intel gathered prior to 2008 was so key and so vital, then why wasn't Osama found prior to 2008?

You guys are trying to make it sound like Bush & Co left Obama a treasure map complete with GPS coorindates of where to find bin Laden and all that idiot Obama had to do was just follow the map.
