I remember when George Herbert Walker Bush pulled off Desert Storm. At the time, I figured it to be the fight of the century, and I damn near got in a shitload of trouble trying to manipulate my way into it; I let off in time, but a buddy of mine wouldn't let it drop and got burned.
Anyway, I figured it to be Armaggedon. It was a great success. In my mind, Bush 41 could do no wrong, and was up there with Ronnie as a Class-A CinC.
But, what happened? He went back on his "Read my lips" promise, and raised taxes. Boom-he's outta there-winner of Armaggedon or not.
Reasonable people can figure out that, providing the op was legit, Obama had no logical choice other than give the green light to a laydown mission like that; they'll forget about it within 90 days.
If there is a poll bump, it'll be a few points, then it'll cascade next idiotic or nefarious fiscal or ethical move made.
Half the Country still aren't stupid enough to commit National suicide with the current policies in place; not yet.
