Post U.S. Attacks Syria & Pakistan & "Refuses to Comment..."

I can understand some degree of "No Comment", but the refusal to answer even some of the basic questions like "Why is the response 'no comment'?" is just ridiculous.

But, I guess Bush has clearly set "precedent" for Obama.
It's glad to know what Obama will now be able to get away with, and the Republicans won't say a word cause obviously they were doing it just a few years prior...

HA HA HA!........You dummies just didn't catch it last week when OBiden said "an engineered world crisis" within the next six months because he had just come from his FIRST national security briefing and couldn't "keep a secret".

The man IS a HAZARD. His attitude has ALWAYS been obnoxious and terrible and he doesn't actually know half as much as he pretends because he is so often just flat out WRONG and the media just won't call him on it.

I wasn't talking about "broadcasting" it...
I was talking about answering SOME questions after the fact...

You didn't even bother to watch the video, did you...

Bush is probably trying to kill Osama in time for an upset election.

what's that N word again.....oh yeah naivety.

In order to answer ANY questions about it, even after the fact you are then "BROADCASTING" it.......anyone with any type of a security clearance knows that you just DON'T TALK ABOUT IT.......AT ALL.

Calling me names does absolutely nothing to address the point.

Even explaining WHY you can't answer questions is "broadcasting it"?

Like I said earlier, I hope you guys are prepared for Obama giving the same sort of crap answers. It would suit you guys to get your own medicine back atcha...

As for me, I expect my government to be responsible and answerable to me.

Just like people saying Bush was holding Osama until the 2004 election...

And Bush was going to attack Iran before he leaves office...

Conspiracy fun from the uninitiated...

I personally think Bush and Osama are buck fuddies. There's some reason he allowed Arabs to leave the country when it was supposed to have been shut down.
He's a creep and I wouldn't put anything past him.
