I was tempted to use Palin's new world dictionary, but resisted the urge in the headline. I also thought Condi was going to give longer interviews so I wondered if the Bin Laden PDB that she ignored would have been brought up, but it wasn't.
BEN-VENISTE: Isn't it a fact, Dr. Rice, that the August 6 PDB warned against possible attacks in this country? And I ask you whether you recall the title of that PDB?
RICE: I believe the title was, "Bin Laden Determined to Attack Inside the United States."
On the flip side Condi, why have you forsaken RushBo? Doesn't she know the consequences of never agreeing with the voice of the GOP?
ZAKARIA: We’re hearing some Republicans, people like Rush Limbaugh say Obama really doesn't deserve much credit for this. You know - the operation was a routine operation. You've been in the White House, do you think that the President at key moments had to make difficult calls, whether to use a drone, whether to use special operations?
RICE: I've been in the White House, and I've seen a president make difficult decisions. And there were difficult decisions in this. What that - what President Obama has done, indeed it was a - it was a brave decision. Now it is absolutely the case that the United States of America has been fighting this war for at least ten years, and really a bit longer. And so this is a victory across presidencies. It's a - it's a victory for having learned more how to fight the counter terrorism fight. But there's no doubt that as President Bush had to make some very, very hard calls that frankly helped to set this up, President Obama had to make some very difficult calls to bring it to conclusion.
She'll always defend her old boss, but defying Limbaugh's will could cause her incredible grief. Not only did she say it was a difficult decision, but that it was brave. Most Republicans that take on Rush always go on his show and back track what they say.
Limbaugh does his best of trying to claim Bin Laden was no big deal at all and the media is building him up suddenly. And it's not only Limbaugh acting as a Dead Ender, the entire right wing megaphone has it's freak on They even went as far as claiming Obama removed the American flag at the Ground Zero tribute.
One problem. It isn't true. Multiple photos show that the flag was on full display when Obama arrived at Ground Zero. Tapper's tweet was posted at 6:30 pm -- hours after the President had left. In all likelihood, Tapper was saying that the flag was being removed before his live shot for ABC World News when he made his tweet.
