> "Mr. President, you did not kill Osama bin Laden, America did. The work that the American military has done killed Osama bin Laden. You did not,"
"You didn't build that" part 2?
"Our factories made the bullets and guns, and our tax dollars paid for the copter fuel. So Mr. Obama you did not kill Bin Laden all by yourself."
The funny thing is, I don't recall Obama ever claiming that he pulled the trigger . . . .
In support of your comment:
"The
American people did not choose this fight. It came to
our shores, and started with the senseless slaughter of
our citizens. After nearly 10 years of service, struggle, and sacrifice,
we know well the costs of war. These efforts weigh on me every time I, as commander in chief, have to sign a letter to a family that has lost a loved one, or look into the eyes of a service member who's been gravely wounded.
So
Americans understand the costs of war. Yet as a country,
we will never tolerate our security being threatened, nor stand idly by when
our people have been killed.
We will be relentless in defense of
our citizens and
our friends and allies.
We will be true to the values that make
us who
we are. And on nights like this one,
we can say to those families who have lost loved ones to al Qaeda's terror: Justice has been done.
Tonight,
we give thanks to the countless intelligence and counterterrorism professionals who've worked tirelessly to achieve this outcome. The
American people do not see their work, nor know their names. But tonight, they feel the satisfaction of their work and the result of their pursuit of justice." - Pres. Obama
"
We" = America.
