The Myth of Mr. Obama’s Weakness
Published: May 3, 2011

But just as releasing a birth certificate marginalized one falsehood, Mr. Obama’s risky and audacious decision to attack the Bin Laden compound in Pakistan has demolished the notion that he cannot make tough decisions or cares primarily about the nation’s image abroad.

One clear sign of Republican unease is that some, like Rick Santorum, are trying to claim that Bin Laden’s killing was an isolated event that proves nothing. That argument sounds hollow and desperate, and most Republicans are giving the president the credit he deserves.

There is still plenty of room for them to make politically coded attacks on Mr. Obama’s domestic policies that have nothing to do with real substance — saying he is a socialist who is trying to redistribute wealth, for example. But if — oh, if — they now make the 2012 race about issues that really matter, such as rebuilding the economy and the future of the government safety net, the nation will get the campaign it needs.

Nice try, Rick. But it's like getting the Olympic gold -- you only have to do it once to prove you are the best.

The press flattery is his codpiece.

Isolated incident that proves nothing........

already owned most of the nation's wealth and to be paid for, with much malice of forethought, by gutting the nation's safety net for the poor and elderly: now that's gargantuan re-distribution of wealth on an unimaginable scale tinged with unconscionable depravity. :patriot:

I didn't realize a frothy mixture of semen and fecal matter could talk.

How did Bush sauntering out on a flight deck, in a jumpsuit, in an atempt to make him look like he's hung like a donkey, with the Mission Accomplished banner behond him, make Bush responsible for what just happaned to OBL?
