Yeah.... Bush carpetbombed an entire rugged mountainous region, destroying many of the caves in which the Taliban were hiding, but not destroying the one cave containing OBL, and that's a screwup. But when BHO authorizes a SEAL team to kill him after he has been living in a large house 1/4 mile from Pakistan's military college on the outskirts of Islamabad, when everybody in the neighborhood seemingly knew who it was who lived there, and when he has lived in that house for a year or more of BHO's presidency, in the open, and that's a focused president. OBL would have had to pee on his leg to get his attention if he were any less focused.

That's the same laser-like focus that just blew up the nation's political relationship with Israel.....at a pretty critical juncture. It's the same laser-like focus that flushed the nation's "special relationship" with Great Britain down the toilet within the first week of his presidency. That's the same laser-like focus that refuses to surrender any of the White House documents on Solyndra with the excuse that doing so would take too much of the president's time......when all he has to do is stick his head out of the oval office door and tell his chief of staff to get on it and make some phone calls. It's the same laser-like focus that can't speak off the cuff without the support of a teleprompter, and is incapable of improvising when the device fails. I wouldn't hire the guy to pick up the dog logs in my back yard. He's not focused enough to find all 4 of them, even though they are laying right out in the open as I write this. He would surely miss one of them. The only thing he was focused on leading up to the raid on OBL's compound was the TV he was watching it on. I'll give him credit for staying out of the way and letting better men than he is get the job done, because he's at his best when he doesn't step in and step on his own crank.

Other than that, I guess he's OK.....
