ABC's "This Week"-are you kidding me with your round-table???Last edited Sun May 6, 2012, 04:23 PM USA/ET - Edit history (1)
They had George Will, Bay Buchanan, Greta van Susteren, Tavis Smiley, and Austan Goolsbee on their round-table. And the first question Jake Tapper asked was if Obama "spiked the football" on the 1-year anniversary of getting bin Laden. Of course, ALL of them said yes (except Goolsbee), claiming that Obama gave no credit to the Navy Seals, saying he made it all about him as if he did it himself.
Even Smiley attacked Obama for having the "nerve" to have a bust of MLK in his office yet bragging about killing bin Laden. It was a disgusting display of anti-Obama bias. Finally, Tapper had to say that he did recall Obama crediting the Seals. The others said he didn't do that nearly enough.
