As the Campaigner In Chief, he’s in full campaign mode, and true to form, is going to capitalize on someone else’s work and labor. It was President George W. Bush who initiated the hunt for Bin Laden. It was George W. Bush and his policies which kept the nation safe from the terrorist acts we’ve seen the last two years of this administration. It was the training, tenacity, and total and complete commitment to capture or kill Bin Laden for ten long years that paid off. Obama and the nation are but mere beneficiaries of a plan that was put into motion ten years ago, and has been steadily moving along until they caught up with him, and did what the seals were trained to do, what they had been planning and re-planning and training and retraining to do for ten long years. Obama just happened to be in the White House when they caught up with him.
Because President Bush is a humble and not proud man, he will not step into the spotlight and take any of the credit for this operation as he should have. No, he will give the credit to where it belongs; to the men and women who put this together and saw it through for ten long years, which is why he will not have any part in Obama’s self congratulatory celebration. The emperor has no clothes and the nation knows it.
