President Obama scored a major political victory yesterday. The death of Osama bin Laden, the terrorist genius that Bill Clinton lacked the courage to have killed and who was too clever for George W. Bush and crew, insulates the president against the usual Republican baloney about Dems being soft on defense. I say baloney because our entry into World War One and World War Two was under Democratic presidents. Our wars against Chinese Communism, however foolish the war in Viet Nam was, were conducted under Democratic administrations. When it comes to leadership in war, the Republicans are, in the words of Geo. W. Bush, "All hat, no cattle."
President Obama still has the economy to deal with, no small matter. Reducing the price of gasoline, which the pundits claim the White House can't accomplish, would help a lot in persuading the public to re-elect Obama. How can the Oval Office bring down oil/gasoline prices? Stay tuned.
