I watched some of the coverage on Fox News yesterday and as time went by it appeared they were having a difficult time praising President Obama for signing off on a raid that killed Osama bin Laden. Has the Republican Party become so short sighted that they cannot even give credit where credit is due? It looks that way and it's a crying shame what has happened to the party that Ronald Reagan built several decades ago. When George W. Bush was the President, these same GOP leaders and promoters were always complaining that the Democrats would not support the President during a time of war. However, now that someone other then Bush is the President - these same talking heads cannot find the strength to praise President Obama for his leadership in this matter.
Honestly, I was pleasantly surprised when President Obama signed off on a raid to kill Osama bin Laden. Frankly, I did not think he had that kind of intestinal fortitude - but I was wrong. Not only did President Obama and his administration get the job done, but they also were able to accomplish their task without the operation leaking out to the media. I know that members of the GOP would love it if President George W. Bush was on the one to bring Osama bin Laden to justice, but he did not. The credit for the death of Osama bin Laden goes to President Obama, just as the blame for this raid would have if something went wrong. Republicans are making a big mistake by not praising President Barack Obama for what he accomplished. Their silence is making them appear very small.
