That was no easy call, Tim. By all accounts, there was no sure deal that they were getting Bin Laden in that raid and given the location of the raid, the raid itself carried high risk. If Obama gives the go on that raid, turns out not to be Bin Laden or Pakistan intercepts the mission and their intelligence agency takes them out...the consequences are pretty staggering.
He may have some relatively easy calls with the use of drones that he can politically afford to get wrong (and I know that worries us both) but the Bin Laden raid is totally and completely different. I think you may be getting a little hot on this thread, might take a moment to chill and come back to it tomorrow.
