AP File It's been reported that bin Laden was killed by SEAL Team Six, officially known as Naval Special Warfare Development Group or DevGru...
...DevGru belongs to the Joint Special Operations Command, an extraordinary and unusual collection of classified standing task forces and special-missions units...
...Under Bush, JSOC was routinely smeared by the left and placed at the center of many Bush/Cheney conspiracy theories. Specifically, New Yorker reporter Seymour Hersh alleged it was Dick Cheney's personal assassination squad.

As if we needed any more hypocrisy from the left-wing this comes out in the open. I'm sure videos of the left-wing railing the military in the past will start to come out. I do however find it apropos that it was the same SEAL Team Six that the left-wing disgraced, that may have save this far left presidency of Obama's. At least the left-wing isn't calling our General "BetrayUs" this time around. I can't wait to see how the left-wingers try and spin what they said about our military under "Dubya". I also can't wait to hear the left-wing say that the Bush policies were right and Obama was smart to follow those same policies. Somehow I don't think we will hear that.
Below are several of Michael Moore's tweets concerning the death of Usama Bin Laden:
ReplyDelete"The monster we created-yes, WE-in the 1980s by ARMING, FUNDING, &TRAINING him in the art of terror agnst the USSR, finally had 2 b put down."...
"Which reporter has the courage to say it? "American-armed terrorist from the 80s, Osama bin Laden, was killed earlier today by America." "...
"@bencnn: #binladen's appeal in Muslimworld was often wildly overstated by those who had vested professional/financial/institutional interest"...
"OBL buried at sea according 2 Muslim tradition. Yes most Muslim funerals I've attended, we got in a chopper & tossed the deceased in L. Erie"...
"BREAKING: All Repub candidates drop out of 2012 race, citing "aversion to losing badly." Would u make Pleasantville play the South Bronx?"...
"He may be dead, but in a way, he won. We gave up our rights. We passed a PatriotAct. We spent trillions on needless wars. Fear now rules us."
The lefties sure know how to pick'em.
Moore like many liberals does not understand main stream Citizens. We are vigilant yes but fear is not in OUR DNA. If it was there would be nothing but Michael Moores running around.
ReplyDeleteHas Nation made mistakes regarding Foreign policies. Yep all Politicans have had their fingers into that pie.
Burying at sea I aint to happy with. The shrine idea did have one good point. Would not have to hunt down Terrorist they would come like a piece of metal to a magnet!
For a person against the rich he sure is rich! All his money all his hate. Goes to show money aint everything!
President Obama is a murderer. He murdered bin Laden illegaly. He used bush's murderers to do the job. The President is no different then bush.
ReplyDeleteOsama Bin Laden Dead: A Mindful Response
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw the crowds celebrating bin Laden's death, something seemed off, as if we weren't processing our emotions around this properly. It was a good moment for America, yes, but was it a moment for cheering, laughing and jubilation?
Should We Have Celebrated Osama Bin Laden's Death?
If you experienced even a hint of vengefulness or gladness at Osama bin Laden's death, that is a real problem. If you believe his death is a form of compensation, you are deluded.
Osama Bin Laden at the Nexus of God and Man's Justice
If we could accomplish God's justice by killing people, Jesus would not have come to die, but to kill. But that's not how God's justice works.
Chris,
ReplyDeleteWould it ever be remotely possible for right wingers to differentiate between concepts that are in fact not the same concerning criticism of political leaders?
If Hersh's piece were true and i haven't read it, then the simple connection between this use of Seals and what he accuses it of would not worthy of a piece in the weekly hypocrite, nor your blog.
If the Vice-president was in fact using a Seal team outside of regular channels it would have little bearing on the president using said team would it? Or are you stating that the use of the team was illegal both ways? Or that it was legal both ways?
Seems we are left with three options.
1. the use of Seal Team 6 by the president and the vice president is illegal.
2. the use of Seal Team 6 by the president and the vice president is legal
3. the use of Seal Team 6 by the president is legal and by the vice president is illegal.
So once we establish your view on that then we are left with whether or not the Vice-president authorized missions without the president and/or congress. I don't know that he did, and i for one don't care. Some small minority did.
But to criticize liberals for establishing what they feel is acceptable use of power, Presidential and congressional but not Vice-presidential is not a sound position.
And once again your taking the vocal minority of liberals and holding them as the standard while demanding that we liberals don't do the same of you.
But if i branded all you birthers and crazies because of a billboard you'd disagree.
"General Betray us" vs. "Where's the Birth Certificate"
Can we accept that in the partisan political battle of our country the fringe of both parties will always get the most press and not lump all of us together as one. Your no more a Hutaree or birther than i am part of Code Red.
Chris, The fact is that Obama has stuck with some Bush policies and they have been proven right under the correct leadership. Thats leadership would be the joint chiefs and Robert Gates, instead of Donald Rumsfeld.
ReplyDeleteThe left was wrong to attack Petraus, but not wrong to attack Bush and Cheney for their handling of the situation. It is exceedingly clear that despite Bush's constant listen to his commanders refrain that Cheney and/or Rummy kept that from truly happening. We can go into whether the war should or shouldn't happen, but the simple matter is that it was run badly.
Joe the Policies did work and saying this group of politicans did a better job than they other would have is well not your best moment.
ReplyDeleteMilitary did their JOB Perfectly no more no Less and all the other Crap regarding Politicans is just crap!
Considering Regime during Campaign ran against the same polices that worked says what about POLICIES! Had Regime been able GITMO would be Closed and Criminal Trials would have been the NORM in of all places NYC!
We got rid of Bin Laden but MORE serious threats still lie ahead. The policies of Bush have kept Nation safe to this point and no matter who is in Office they had better give great thought before lessening OUR ability to keep track of OUR enemys.
The wars in Iraq and Afganistan have always been run badly in my opinion including Now cause We have a exit strategy but NEVER had a plan to have ever WIN the wars. Now We have Lybia and once again telling the good guys from the bad guys is not a easy thing to do. Just out of Curosity what gave us the right to be assisting in Lybia. Egypt we did not,Iran We did not. Civilians were killed in those Nations yet we stood by and watched. WHY?
You do have to admit Joe that the Policies Regime ran against to get Elected are the same Policies they are taking credet for now. Left can and will try to Spin it but Citizens aint stupid and know these policies that worked were in effect when Sen Obama was campaigning against them!
hahahahahahaha Joe you are soooooo funny. "Under the correct leadership"? Is that the same leadership that has made our friends in the world go against us? Is it that leadership that made the economy worse not better? It's funny that the only thing Obama has done right is by using the Bush team and the Bush policies.
ReplyDeleteHow Gitmo looking now? Patriot Act?... It's funny that all you have to do is change the leadership to a (D) and everything is good. You liberals are such hypocrites. Debt,unemployment,Gitmo,war,high gas prices are all good as long as a (D) does it. hahahhahaha You have to love those wacky liberals.
Joe said..."Seems we are left with three options.

I was pointing out that Obama used the same team to kill Usama that the left-wing called all kind of names. Do you remember "General Betrayus" name? You are so deep in hypocracy Joe you can't get see any more.
Go ahead and lie to yourself about the mental illness of left-winger, we will be here to laugh at it.
Obama is smart for doing the same thing the left said Bush was dumb for doing. How does that work again?
