I claim there is absolutely nothing to support your statement, and plenty to contradict it. Would you please provide supporting evidence for your statement?

Not really. The true test would be if he confesses that Fast and Furious was his plan all along and he admits to the crime of being an accessory to the murder of a border patrol agent.

That statement is a perfect contradiction, as Obama is completely dedicated to destroying every meaningful gun right possible.

Re: How Obama et al screwed up the Osama mission...

While I think that Obama's decision was politically motivated, and that I find Obama to be the WORST president to EVER sit in the oval office, I am obligated to state that he is the acting Commander in Chief, and that it's definitely his prerogative to decide when and where to announce the results of the mission.

That doesn't make him any less of an idiot in my book.

How Obama et al screwed up the Osama mission...

Fascinating read here. I'm sure I'll get the book.

Two interesting paragraphs really nail this:
"There was a choice that night,” Pfarrer told TheDC. “There was a choice to keep the mission secret.” America, Pfarrer explained, could have left things alone for “weeks or months … even though there was evidence left on the ground there … and use the intelligence and finish off al-Qaida.

But Obama’s announcement, he said, “rendered moot all of the intelligence that was gathered from the nexus of al-Qaida. The computer drives, the hard drives, the videocasettes, the CDs, the thumb drives, everything. Before that could even be looked through, the political decision was made to take credit for the operation.”

I'm sure this isn't the only covert operation where this has happened, but it's a shame that a gold mine like that was thrown away so that he could get a short uptick in his popularity rating.
