Chickenshit

Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney is trying to neutralize President Barack Obama’s achievement of killing terrorist mastermind Osama bin Laden by insisting that it’s something that even liberal Democratic President Jimmy Carter would have done.

Romney's implication that any president would have made the call Obama did is ridiculous.  The last Republican president didn't make that call.  And Romney himself said he wouldn't take the risk. Of course one wouldn't expect a man who dodged the draft and let other Americans go to Vietnam in his place while he ran off to Paris to have the courage to make that call anyway. 

As for Obama, well, he did get Bin Ladin, and no amount of chickenshit revisionist history will ever change that.  As for what it says about Obama, we'll defer to the Republican Secretary of Defense at the time, a man that served Republican presidents all the way back to Nixon: "I worked for a lot of these guys. And this is one of the most courageous calls – decisions — that I think I’ve ever seen a president make.” - Robert Gates.

And last, the implication that liberal Democratic Presidents (even ones who actually served in the military as Carter did) are somehow less on such matters is despicable and begs the harshest response.  So here it is: Bush and Cheney lied and cheated this country into a devastating and counter productive war and 9 year occupation in Iraq that got 40,000 Americans dead or maimed, cost several trillion dollars and only ended up handing Iraq and the worlds second largest oil reserves to Iran on a silver platter.  For that they're war criminals and traitors.  There's nothing worse.  And to this day Romney cheers them and what they did.  This alone makes him unfit to be president.
