Rep. Peter King (R-NY), who has accused the White House for cooperating too closely with filmmakers on a movie about the mission to kill Osama bin Laden, said the leaks "make the president look like a strong foreign policy leader!"

Outraged the information paints the Obama administration as being effective in the war on terror, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), told Greta Van Susteren on Fox News on Wednesday night, it "paints the president as a strong leader!"

Sen. McCain especially had strong words for the president, saying, "it makes president Obama look strong!"
