Rumsfeld Criticizes White House Over Bin Laden
Donald Rumsfeld, former Secretary of Defense to President George W. Bush, took to Twitter to criticize the White House for touting President Obamas decision to go after Osama bin Laden while suggesting Mitt Romney wouldnt have done the same.
The special operators Rumsfeld refers to below are presumably the Navy SEAL units that carried out the operation.
