When President Barack Obama tells terrorists he will find them and get them; he means it.

It was unclear if the target of the raid was killed in the raid, which was a response to a deadly attack on a Nairobi shopping mall.

It just further shows how dicey these operations are and how amazing everything turned out when going after OBL.

I mean, how can we really know if we didn't personally see the dead body?
(I seem to be channeling Trump right now; don't worry, I'm gonna wash that man right outta my hair)
Thank goodness that's done. I think I'll stick to trusting President Obama in the future.
BTW, didn't everyone love Seth Meyer's takedown of Trump at the press corp dinner? That was rich.

While his team was readying to take out OBL.

(6,151 posts)7. Now that's real grace under pressure, isn't it? Being able to joke and act cool with all that Seal
stuff going on. I would've been a nervous wreck and then collapsed in exhausted tears when it was over.
