Going after bin Laden is Gutsy Call? ..Only If You’re A Liberal.

Don’t want to run the Bush National Guard ‘story’ again–Obama is still running against Bush after all.  Nope. They’re going with the Pro-Obama Gutsy call movie two days before the election.  And what about that anyway?

Was going after bin Laden really a gusty call?

Consider the Democrats own rhetoric about Republicans.

Republicans are the ones with the cowboy presidents who use phrases like axis of evil, or with candidates who shoot first and ask questions later; guys like Reagan who challenge the evil empire and win.  Republicans are the people clinging to their guns, right?  They want concealed and constitutional carry.  Wild West! Woo Hoo! Isn’t that the lefts narrative?

Gutsy call?

Maybe it’s a gutsy if you are a squeamish, anti-gun, pacifist, leftist dweeb.

But for most Americans that’s not the case.  If someone walked up to you–Joe citizen–and said we know where bin Laden is, what do you want to do, most Americans would tell you to take that bastard out between bites of corn flakes without looking up from their laptop.

For Republicans, most independents, most anyone who remembers 9/11, pulling the trigger on Obama bin Laden is something that would have happened months before Obama got past all his pre-gutsy-call hand wringing.

I don’t know a single person who wouldn’t have made that call in a heartbeat, and I could probably fill a few buses full of people I know myself willing to pull the trigger themselves.

Gutsy call?  Not at all.
