For Obama, bin Laden killing becomes campaign toolThis is interesting because President Obama's murder of bin Laden was a violation of both American law and of international law, but he is using it as a campaign tool to get reelected.Remember American was not at war with Pakistan, where President Obama sent the American military on a mission to kill bin Laden! Nor the did the American government have the permission of the Pakistan government to enter that country and murder bin Laden. Last bin Laden was never convicted in any court, American or otherwise of doing anything wrong, but President Obama still ordered his execution. For Obama, bin Laden killing becomes campaign tool By BEN FELLER Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — The killing of Osama bin Laden has become a campaign weapon for President Barack Obama. Obama's re-election campaign is portraying his risky decision to go after America's top enemy as a defining difference between him and his Republican presidential opponent. His team is suggesting Mitt Romney may not have had the guts to order a mission that put lives and perhaps a presidency at stake. Obama himself is opening up anew— and opening the secretive Situation Room as an interview stage — to hail the one-year anniversary of the raid. Romney's campaign says it is "sad" for Obama to use a unifying event to divide the nation. |
