Three Bush policies that killed bin laden...

Guy Benson is an up and comer in the ranks of conservative pundits. Here is a column that addresses the three Bush era policies that allowed Obama to find and then kill bin laden. Without these policies, Obama would not have had this victory. Thanks George W. Bush.

Unless those policies were bullets coming out of that Seal's gun then no.

From the article:

Specifically, Osama bin Laden was found because the United States military exploited actionable intelligence extracted by subjecting terrorists to enhanced interrogation techniques (EITs) in secret CIA prisons, by questioning enemy combatants at Guantanamo Bay, and by capturing a top al Qaeda source in Iraq...

US voters overwhelmingly support the limited use of harsh questioning tactics to prevent terrorist attacks on US soil – even when the loaded term “torture” is included in the question.

Three Bush policies that killed bin laden...

The policies in question did help, but let's not say they killed Bin Laden.

 

[billc]

You might not say that but I will, no gitmo, no black sites, no waterboarding, no dead bin laden.

Shouldn't that read: 3 Bush policies decried by liberals that Obama continued that killed Bin Laden?

 

[billc]

I really need to go to bed, but... well said Big Don.

Anyone got a light?

 

[billc]

It is a war, not a law enforcment issue, that is specifically why Bush took the war option over Clinton and Kerry's law enforcement approach.

 

[Bob Hubbard]

Right...this the same Bush who said over and over again that he could care less where OBL was starting with oh a year after 9/11? Same Bush who rallied against how handcuffed he felt by the US Constitution? Same Bush who....eh...what's the point? He's staying out of the lime light, hoping that DOG doesn't come after him and haul him to Geneva for some "Swiss Water Treatment" himself.

Policies don't kill people. Seals do, and bears, sometimes a bit of shellfish stuck in the throat, but not policies ... heck, even tried rolling up my Geico policy and try as I might it was just a bit annoying.

I was laid up all week in bed with food poisoning when I heard the news......I couldn`t be sure I`d heard it right until I came into work and read it in English. I don`t care who`s responsible. I don`t care if it`s little more than a symbolic victory. I`m just glad it`s been done. Good one Navy!!!!!!!!!!
