   ==================   
      
   Rush was making sarcastic comments on the reporting of Obama getting credit   
   for singlehandedly  catching Bin Laden.   
   Even the LA Times got in on the sarcasm.   
      
      
   Osama bin Laden dead: Yes, SEALs were in on the raid, but aides hail Obama's   
   office bravery   
      
   According to another one of those White House briefings of reporters   
   designed to suck up all available credit for good news, President Obama's   
   homeland security advisor reveals that it was a really tense time in the   
   air-conditioned White House as unidentified U.S. Navy SEALs closed in on the   
   world's most wanted man after midnight a half a world away.   
      
   "Minutes passed like days," says John Brennan, who bravely stood with press   
   secretary Jay Carney before reporters and TV cameras today chronicling his   
   boss' weekend heroics.   
      
   The heavily-armed commandos flying in a quartet of darkened Blackhawk and   
   Chinook helicopters more than 100 miles into Pakistan were probably   
   listening to their iPods and discussing the NFL draft.   
      
   "The concern was that bin Laden would oppose any type of capture operation,"   
   said Obama's Sherlock Holmes. So U.S. troops were prepared "for all   
   contingencies."   
      
   In fact, this weekend was such a tense time in the White House that Obama   
   only got in nine holes of golf. But he still managed to deliver his joke   
   script to the White House Correspondents Assn. dinner Saturday evening.   
      
   Sunday was, Brennan revealed to his eager audience, "probably one of the   
   most anxiety-filled periods of times in the lives of the people assembled   
   here." Poor poor bureaucrats. Extra Tums all around. Did someone order   
   dinner?   
      
   There may have been a little anxiety aboard those combat choppers. Who   
   knows? We can't hear from them. And, as every day, anxiety in the kitchens,   
   hearts and mind of thousands of military families who put up with the   
   terrifying uncertainty of the dangerous deeds their loved ones have   
   volunteered to secretly do for their country.B During his 49 minute   
   presentation Brennan did squeeze in one reference to the mission's "very   
   brave personnel."   
      
   But the emphasis, with 2012 just around the calendrical corner, was on the   
   boss' valor. "There was nothing that confirmed that bin Laden was at that   
   compound," Brennan related as if such uncertainty is uncommon in war.   
      
   "And, therefore," Brennan continued, "when President Obama was faced with   
   the opportunity to act upon this, the president had to evaluate the strength   
   of that information and then made what I believe was one of the most   
   gutsiest calls of any president in recent memory."   
      
   According to early reports of the incident, detailed here in The Ticket, 24   
   SEALs rappelled down ropes from hovering Chinooks in post-midnight darkness   
   Monday Pakistan time with Osama security forces shooting at them. Brennan   
   didn't have much time to go into all that today, the goal is to elevate the   
   ex-state senator to at least a one-star commander-in-chief.   
      
   Here's something else that didn't get much recognition in all the street   
   celebrations or all-hail-Obama briefings:   
      
   The trail to Monday morning's assault on Osama's Pakistan compound began   
   during someone else's presidency. That previous president authorized   
   enhanced interrogation techniques which convinced folks like Khalid Shaikh   
   Mohammed to give up, among many other things, the name of their top-secret   
   courier, now deceased. His travels ultimately led the CIA back to Osama's   
   six-year-old suburban home.
