Why are Republicans always laying claim to being the best on national security and the military? They have half the country believing that crap. That's all we heard after 9-11, that look what Bush did, we're lucky he was president. Really? We had to listen to Guliani bring up 9-11 every time he opened his mouth - a noun, a verb, and 9-11. Cheney even went so far as to say we would be attacked again if Kerry were to be elected. Kerry, the guy who actually was fighting in a war when Bush and Cheney and their whole crew were enjoying deferments.
Obama reminds people who actually went after Bin Laden and he gets crucified for it. Bush would have gone on tour to tout it. But that was Bush who pretty much said he didn't know and didn't care where Bin Laden was, wasn't it? Obama focused in on Bin Laden from the start, not Bush. His orders were to renew the effort, that is what brought us to that point in time in order for him to give the go ahead. And you're right, any other president could have made the call at that point, but it was Obama who directed troops back into Afghanistan where they belonged all along, not in Iraq. When Obama made the statement while campaigning that he would go into Pakistan after Bin Laden if Mubaric failed to act Romney said he wouldn't do that. So what would he have done to get Bin Laden?
It has always been just fine for Republicans to brag, but Democrats must remain humble. That would be OK, but half the population probably still thinks Bush policy is what got Bin Laden. It's time Democrats started telling people about accomplishments the way Republicans have always done. It may not feel right, but that's the game in today's politics.

BTW, I have never said Romney wouldn't have made the same decision to kill Bin Laden, quite the opposite. Read my post.
