Every time the president does something like this, the Democratic nominee needs to point out again that President Bush bungled the country into a disastrous war that has damaged America, failed to find Osama bin Laden, funded it all [by] driving us further into debt to China and various Gulf sheikdoms. And McCain supports it all 100%.
Always stay on the offensive.
Question: Could George W. Bush have done more damage to the country if harming the country had been his actual intent?
Follow-up question: How do we know it wasn’t?

Politics is played like the stock market.
When Democrats are in control they are busy investing in the country and trying to build up it’s value.
When Republicans are in control they decide that it’s time to take out the profits.
When George W. Bush was elected in 2000 it was clear to everyone that he would be a one term president and so the republican profits would need to be siphoned off at a more accelerated pace to fit into the four year window of opportunity. But, when Bush was re-elected in 2004 the frenzied pace for dismantling the country had already been set and the appetites of the profit takers had become insatiable.

let us keep in mind that your current administration possibly DOES NOT WANT to find bin laden.
for when doing so, there will no longer be an excuse to continue the artificial reason(s) for continuing the variety conflicts in that part of the world…
