Cheney's already lost his "heart"

Also, he took the credit for for the killing of Ossama Bin Laden for his administration, er, the Bush Administration, and he criticized McCain for having chosen Palin as his Vice President.

That's because he has no heart or brains; delusional.

Well--Mr Obama recently said that "your success was not down to you", or some-such, so the first claim has some validity and not many people thought Mrs Palin a wise choice according to what I read.

spendi, Why do you continue to waste everybody's time with your garbage? Your interpretation of reality is your own based on your own imagination.

President Obama made the decision to use the military to kill bin Laden. He succeeded by making that decision. If he had failed, he would be liable for all the negative reports that was sure to come.

Yes, he succeeded, because our military had the capacity to be successful; he did not do it alone, but the decision to do it was his alone.

You are an idiot without much common sense or logic.

You're the idiot. I wasn't commenting about the execution of OBL. I commented about Mr Obama's remark last week in which, more or less, he disqualified himself from taking credit for it.

Not that he won't be milking it for all he can squeeze out of it. Which won't be much because Americans are not very interested in that sort of thing except insofar as it provided a nice evening's viewing while you all gloat as if you had carried out the mission yourselves.

I imagine that there was a judicial process to bring OBL to the US for trial once his whereabouts were established. What happened has hardly helped establish more cordial relations with Pakistan. But I don't suppose you consider that a negative.

Once OBL's residence was established he was neutralised. AQ might have suffered more from hacking his communications. As it is AQ still has a leadership.

Sorry, spendi, but you wrote,

You must learn to write the English language with more clarity.
Taking credit for the killing of bin Laden by Cheney doesn't compute with "your success was not down to you."

I didn't say that. Mr Obama's recent remark apllies to Mr Cheney as well. The credit for the kit is down to the foggy ruins of time.

But that's not up for election in 100 days.

As for the execution itself I think there are too many myths surrounding that for me to feel confident in passing a view about it.

That was not made clear in your sentence, because it was implied.

Go boil your head you silly sod. I can't help it if you can't read simple English because you are in too much of a hurry to jump to the conclusion you need to jump to.

I can't imagine you having the slightest interest in what anybody says except as a springboard for one of your ignorant, cliched and coarsely expressed blurts.

Having you sticking up for science so that you can preen your credentials as a superior person is the absolute last thing science needs.

Hey, spendi, you on the sauce again? You run up against these nonsensical posts every once-in-a-while, and all I've done is asked for clarification. It seems none is forthcoming, you silly sod!

I have too much respect for A2Kers than to come on sauced.

ROFLMAO

As a matter of fact, remember when Bush when asked about bin Laden, he said he could care less?

Cheney said that "a lot of the intelligence that laid the groundwork for what ultimately led to the capture of Bin Laden came as a result of programs we had in place in the Bush administration," but they had thought that Osama was hiding in the Tora Bora caves in the Afghan mountains, and in 2007 proceeded to pulverize the rocks there. They had thought that they had probably killed him. It was at the beginning of the Obama administration that the search efforts for Osama were increased after evidence had surfaced--very soon after the 2007 attacks--that he hadn't been killed.

I agree with Cheney about Palin.

I checked your link ci. and I can't see where Mr Bush put a foot wrong.

Everything he said made complete sense to me as does the implication that the execution of OBL was an electioneering stunt where the bulk of the risk was taken by members of the military.

I looked further into this. Apparently, the bombing attack was called off at the last second, and a commando operation was carried out instead. Some militants were killed but of course bin Laden was not there.

Hey, spendi, do you get your jollies from giving me thumb's down? LOL

Not me ci. I used the thing once when it first came in on an innocuous Trivia thread to see what happened. Never since.

I occasionally thumb up a particularly stupid post.
