<snip>
Sen. John McCain took aim Monday at President Barack Obama's decision to tout the one-year anniversary of Usama bin Laden's death at the hands of US Navy SEALs, saying, "heroes don't brag."
McCain (R-Ariz.), who lost to Obama in the 2008 presidential election, last week accused the president of "doing a shameless end-zone dance to help himself get re-elected," with comments he made in advance of the May 2 anniversary of the former al Qaeda leader being shot dead in his Pakistan compound.
Speaking to Bill O'Reilly on FOX News Monday night, McCain said, "I say any president, Jimmy Carter, anybody, any president would have, obviously, under those circumstances, done the same thing.

(56,262 posts)politicians have ALWAYS taken credit for any good news that happens on their watch, whether or not they had anything to do with it. some republicans (such as shrub) even go so far as taking credit for good laws that passed over their opposition.

(1,076 posts)President Obama did a great job and the rethugs don't like it, so what. McCain needs to shut up, nobody cares what he has to say about anything. The President did the right thing. He had the right team in the right place at the right time and he got Osama. As for me, Thanks Mr. President for a job well done and keep up the good work.
