The public doesn't need to know what? This doesn't make sense. Care to explain?

If George W. Bush had actually managed to kill Osama bin Laden, not a single person in this country, including those on the left, would have one word to say against a friggin' House Resolution honoring the troops who successfully carried out the mission.

What many of us on the left objected to with Bush, was his FAKE "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED" event that was nothing more than a photo op for no reason whatsoever. Nothing was actually accomplished.

I don't understand this, either, except that I guess you're just trying to turn the argument around. Though I have to say it was a pretty unsuccessful attempt.

Now, instead of using this as an opportunity to bash liberals, would you mind commenting on the subject of the OP? Do you agree that the House should not pass a Resolution in honor of the Special Forces Team 6 that took out the Most Wanted Man in the world?
