The left took an ideological 9mm round behind the right ear this week as their messiah blew-out their half a brain in a night time raid.
They tried claiming that waterboarding was illegal and ineffective. They tried saying the CIA "black sites" were bad. They tried to claim Cheney's JSOC death squads were evil made manifest. Invading soveriegn nations. No UN backing. Extra-judicial killings.
They all died that fateful night.
First they tried to claim none of these things were involved or that they were mitigated.
Now it looks like an outright kill operation with no intention of bringing back a live prisoner, even if UBL has surrendered like a screeching bitch (what is on the missing 25 minutes of tape dear lurkers? Kinda like Nixon's missing 18 minutes, huh?) and every "illegal" or "immoral" technique once damned under Bush was embraced by Obama.
"Quick! There has to be some way to salvage our ideology," the left is saying. "What ever will we say?"
PREDICTION: The new narrative will become, "Because Bush gained the intel under torture, incessant media propaganda about who perpetrated the 9/11 attack and Gitmo is a national disgrace where no new prisoners may be brought Bush forced Obama to kill UBL because Bush made a fair trial impossible
"Bush forced Obama to kill UBL even though Obama would have done the right thing!"
I give them 2 to 7 days until they start. Sooner if they read this post.
