We’d say liberal journalists are attempting to create the image of Obama the Warrior “for some unknown reason,” but we all know the reason:
He’s weak on defense and terrorism and as November 2012 draws near they’ll do anything they can do bolster his credentials.
Are we exaggerating? Hardly. Here’s Margaret Carlson on MSNBC’s Morning Joe doing exactly as we said.
Scarborough: We’ll have time to get to the nitpicking. But should this not be about Barack Obama making a decisive decision when the rest of his cabinet wasn’t sure whether he should do it or not?
Carlson: We’re not asking for a Hollywood movie. We’re just asking for a moment when Professor Obama turned into General Obama and ran this incredible raid. That took a lot of guts, the kind of thing you do see in a Hollywood movie.
General Obama?
Surely, you say, this is an isolated incident. This can’t possibly be an on-going liberal theme.
Well, here’s Howard Fineman in the Huffington Post:
By calmly and meticulously overseeing the successful targeting of Osama bin Laden, President Barack Obama just proved himself — vividly, in almost Biblical terms — to be an effective commander-in-chief of the armed forces of the United States.
Biblical, Howard?
The only thing biblical about it is that it’s such an overstatement that it causes us to say, “Good lord.”
