Here it is, folks. Swift Boat 2012. I want to know who is funding this.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A group of former U.S. intelligence and Special Forces operatives is set to launch a media campaign, including TV ads, that scolds President Barack Obama for taking credit for the killing of Osama bin Laden and argues that high-level leaks are endangering American lives.
"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," Ben Smith, identified as a Navy SEAL, says in the film.

(28,498 posts)He gave the order to kill Osama; Ben needs to keep that in mind.
No one else did, including GW Bush in the seven years he was unconcerned about him.
Ben would do better to ask Bush why he let his pals and business partners fly planes in the WTC...

(53,975 posts)Really? This is beyond desperate. If anyone had come out and said something like this about Bush, given that he stood under a banner stating, "Mission Accomplished", they would have been hanged by the ankles after being discharged for "mysterious" reasons.
I could see Romney's campaign was in trouble, but I didn't think it was already this bad.

(16,087 posts)To Question 6, Should the federal government defer all law regarding victimless crime, including drug use to the states...?
Scott Taylor simply answered "Yes."
Taylor answered purely libertarian on all other questions, including: 2nd Amendment, eminent domain, blocking the EPA from imposing CO2 emissions, privatizing Social Security and Medicare, No on any and all bailouts, and No on national i.d.
Pro-Defense libertarians will be most pleased with his answer on the use of Military force overseas. Taylor responded:
I do not believe in nation building. However, if meddling consists of matters that have to do with national defense I support it.
Taylor is a retired Navy Seal. He is a combat Vet having served in Operation Iraqi Freedom.

(11,415 posts)All he said was he made the decision when to let the long time planned attack go through. This guy is so full of it.
