1. Waited too long? Sure.

He should have done it before the drone attack.

2. Meh. They would pan whatever he did.

So predictable.

3. Typical uninformed knee-jerk reaction by the GOP.

If he had taken a strike the next day, they would’ve criticizing for being reckless. Now, that the military actually have a game plan put together that takes a few days, they say he’s taking too long. They’re just being silly children.

4. The left is upset because it was done, and the right is upset because it wasn't done sooner

What a screwed up country

5. Of course they do.

6. Personally, I was glad that Biden was obviously being careful about what, when & how to respond. nt

7. Of course they did, I cringe to imagine what TFG's response would have been.

We're extremely lucky that this happened when he was a private citizen.
