Holy Shit! Peter King (asshat NY) PRAISES Obama- His statement:
“I give the president full credit for this, it took a lot of guts,” said House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Peter King (R-N.Y.), whose district was home to dozens of New York City firefighters and cops killed in the attack on the World Trade Center on Sept 11th 2001. “He’s the commander-in-chief, he was the guy who put it on the line. There was no guarantee –none - that this would work. We could have had our helicopters shot down… It was a really delicate operation.”

4. Even a broken clock is right once in a while
It's taken 14 years (no on Clinton's impeachment) for this broken clock to be right again. More than enough time to go buy a new clock. Hear that, Town of Islip?

7. He's smart
When more of the facts are discussed Obama will look better and better. The fact is he dramatically changed the policies in regard to Afghanistan and specifically Bin Laden. Those are facts and they will be recognized by all. To deny them is political suicide.

8. He also said he knew nothing of this operation until he got the call at 10pm..
all in all he seemed okay with not being in the loop. The less people that knew the better especially the Pakistanis which he said tipped off bin Laden when Bill Clinton went after him.

King must have took the stick out of his ass. He knows this is big medicine for the President.
