To Obama's credit, he didn't stick to his original intent to stop the war on terror yet and we got this bad guy. Heck he even started another war!

You wouldn't be saying that if it was Bush who was in the White House. Obama even said in his speech tonight he made the capture or killing of Osama bin Laden top priority to the CIA. Yes, he did have something to do with it.

Actually he is, genius! He's the Commander in Chief of the military. How do I know? Because I'm ex-military myself, and the President is the Commander in Chief of the military. All the generals and commandants like Stanley McChrystal answer to him. Have you ever heard the term, "Executive decision?" I guess not!

What other war did he start? The situation in Libya is a UN deal, and those are NATO strikes. I don't recall anyone (not even FAUX News) announcing he sent ground troops into Libya.

NATO and UN military operations are composed of a coalition of forces from various countries. Any military action by the UN has to be agreed upon by the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, so Russia, China, etc are just as responsible for the action in Libya as the US is. Aside from that, President Obama has already put out the deadlines concerning withdrawals from the region and combat missions in Iraq have officially ended. Your attempt to diminish this accomplishment with your dumbfounded rhetoric would be laughable, but there are far too many fools who think like you do. Try that one again...

No, Obama was in the White House giving out the orders trying to take care of the worst recession since the Great Depression thanks to his incompetent predecessor. Barack Obama was having to show everyone his long term birth certificate because some ******* with a horrible combover has a problem with our first black President. Barack Obama was in Washington working diligently to do the right thing while that dipstick Paul Ryan was trying to cut Medicaid and Medicare. Barack Obama was doing everything he promised while getting little to no cooperation from Boehner and the Republicans even after there wasn't a government shutdown. That's what he was doing.
