Sarah Palin credits Bush for Osama bin Laden's death, omits Obama's name

Source: LA Times

Speaking at a fundraising event Monday evening, Sarah Palin credited President Bush by name for the death of Osama bin Laden but omitted the name of President Obama in her remarks.

Palin spoke to a crowd at Colorado Christian University in Lakewood, Colo. “Yesterday was a testament to the military’s dedication in relentlessly hunting down an enemy through many years of war,” the former Alaska governor said. “And we thank our president. ... We thank President Bush for having made the right calls to set up this victory.”

Others who didn't give credit to Obama in remarks about Bin Laden's death were Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota, ex-Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney and former Sen. Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania — although Huckabee did mention the president’s name.

Former Speaker Newt Gingrich, ex-Ambassador to China Jon Huntsman and former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty included some gratitude to Obama in their statements.

The problem with this story is that it does not call out the fact that Bush has not been President since early 2009, and was unable to catch Bin Ladin for most of eight years. This should be a fact, rather than a matter of opinion. This reminds me of the reporter sitting like an idiot while Trump spouted lies about President Obama's birthplace.

what a worthless piece of shitdirtbag she is...

Anti-American and Anti-America.

Crazy Palin, go crawl back into the hole that you came out of.

Anyone with half a brain no they had OB in 2002 and took their eye off the prize and directed the strentgh and wealth of the US on a swinging dick vendetta bullshit war in Iraq...

plus *thinking* that it was "gotcha question". :silly:

But that would be wrong of me.

people and can stay envious over insignificant things for years. They are the ultimate losers.
