The Obama campaign continues to come under fire for
releasing the ad shown below this week that questions whether Mitt Romney would
have ordered the raid that killed Osama bin Laden. The ad is appalling, on so
many levels.
The Navy Seals have complained, even Arianna Huffington has
complained. And it has to be said: If you're a liberal and you lose Arianna
Huffington from your side, you've gone too far.
I think we can all agree that President Obama was the guy in charge when Osama bin Laden was taken down and he deserves some credit for his actions, but to claim that presidential hopeful, Mitt Romney would not have done it, to raise that question, goes way too far.
But even more disgusting is what former President Bill Clinton says in his narration of the video ad about Mr. Obama: "Suppose the Navy Seals had gone in there and it hadn't been Bin Laden. Suppose they'd been captured or killed. The downside would've been horrible for him."

The focus of the Obama APPROVED comment by Bill Clinton is that Obama’s great bravery in the face of
potential POLITICAL FALLOUT…It’s shameful. There appears to be ZERO consideration for the military personnel carrying out the dangerous mission
abroad.
Additional light is shed when you consider the topic of yesterday’s Lunch-Alert at Dick Morris.com Where Dick
discussed the Clinton-Obama deal recently arranged so that Hillary
Clinton could finally pay off some of her remaining campaign debt. Yes it still
lingers from her efforts to obtain the Whitehouse in 2008. Obama agreed to raise
several million for Hillary if William Jefferson Clinton would narrate the ad
you saw at the link above.
What is especially hypocritical here is that Bill Clinton
himself had the opportunity to take out Osama bin Laden back in 1999. He was
advised by the military that they had good Intel on where he was located.
Clinton chose NOT to act. Some could argue that if he had acted back then in
1999 – 9/11 may have been an ordinary day in 2001.
