Swift Boat Two? Special Ops group takes on Obama claims regarding Bin Laden

American Thinker   "This won't be as big as the Swift Boat effort, simply because the killing of Osama bin Laden is not as central to Obama's campaign as was Kerry's military service to his.
"But if what Reuters is reporting is true, it is going to make for some uncomfortable moments for the Obama camapaign."
Majority of Independents Say Obama ‘Over-Politicized’ bin Laden Killing. However...

A total of 46 percent of respondents say they trust Obama more on foreign policy than his likely GOP challenger Mitt Romney, while 44 percent choose Romney. But Romney leads among independents — 48 to 38 percent.
How on earth can this be? With all Obama's gaffes, bowing and apologizing; with his feckless treatment of the Iranian people in their fight for freedom; his dumping of the promised missile defense system for our Eastern European allies, the silly "reset" button for Russia; the video of appeasement sent to Iran at the start of his administration - I can go on - and so many other instances where Obama has telegraphed weakness to our enemies and betrayal to our allies, how obtuse can Obama supporters be?  TD
Anyway, Reuters had these words to say:
 A group of former U.S. intelligence and Special Forces operatives is set to launch a media campaign, including TV ads, that scolds President Barack Obama for taking credit for the killing of Osama bin Laden and argues that high-level leaks are endangering American lives.....
Mr. President, you did not kill Osama bin Laden, America did. The work that the American military has done killed Osama bin Laden. You did not," Ben Smith, identified as a Navy SEAL, says in the film."As a citizen, it is my civic duty to tell the president to stop leaking information to the enemy," Smith continues. "It will get Americans killed."
