re: #589 anchors_aweigh

Stand-by for heavy rolls. You are about to witness the attempted deception of the US public by the administration. They will attempt to portray the rescue as a stand-alone decision by the President and transfer the credit to him.

If you understand military operations, you can see very clearly that the rescue was simply a case of the on-scene commander using his PRE-PLANNED (that’s what SROE is) authority to rescue Phillips.

If Obama is an honorable man, he will give credit where credit is due. I am not hopeful.

You sound like you know whereof you speak. Thanks and no, I’m not hopeful either.
