Since he rolled the dice and won, some may say, "Yeah, he just did this for political points. He just thinks about himelf."

OTOH, if he had decided not to get bin Laden, and this had come out later, then he'd have gotten the same criticism, that he was just being a politician and thinking about himself instead of the national security.



How would they fake something like this?
Rolled what dice? What was the other choice?
