doesn't deserve the credit for getting bin Laden, that BUSH should get the credit. They also said ANYONE would've done the same thing, and Rove's group made an ad taking only part of Bill Clinton's quote saying that he hoped HE would've made the same decision; Rove clipped it so it showed Bill Clinton just saying HE would've made the same decision.

Not to mention that Romney criticized Obama for saying he'd go into Pakistan to get bin Laden. Romney also constantly lies about Obama "apologizing to the rest of the world..."
