I strongly disagree with Romney's assertion that any President would have given the go-ahead to kill bin Laden... McCain even said in one of the 08 debates that launching raids into Pakistan would be a silly idea as it would put at risk our relationship with the Pakistanis...
If I were Romney- I wouldn't bring Obama's biggest foreign policy achievment to the forefront of this campaign
I don't get it either. btw, Romney said the same thing as McCain, ripping Obama for his willingness to enter an ally's sovereign territory.
I still do not get why killing Bin Laden was such a "huge achievement" for the president. One, it showed that, like Bush, Obama is willing to violate international boundaries to "get someone." This flies in the face of everything Obama ran on in 2008.
Not really. Obama said as a candidate he would do this if necessary. Then he did it.
