...here we have a group of people, all of whom claim to be "former U.S. intelligence and Special Forces operatives" who suddenly have sprung spontaneously from the fertile political turf (in Delaware, of course) to raise complaints that Barack Obama should not be taking credit for the killing of Osama bin Laden and is risking the lives of American troops through the callous, politically-based leaking of classified information...

...it is likely a simple coincidence that the president of the Special Operations OPSEC Education Fund Inc organization, Scott Taylor, is a former Navy Seal who ran unsuccessfully for a Republican congressional nomination; it is undoubtedly simply a quirk of fate that Chad Kolton, onetime spokesman for the office of Director of National Intelligence in Gee Dub's administration, is a representative for the OPSEC group. They're just a bunch of guys...Concerned Americans, you understand, who just happen to have banded together into a 501(c)4 organization because of their CONCERN. They also, it is noted in the linked piece, have at their immediate disposal a million dollars and the wherewithal to have already produced a 22-minute mini-documentary. Beyond that, there are, one would gather, can/bottle drives and bake sales forthcoming to come up with the funding to run anti-Obama ads in the battleground states of Florida, Virginia, Ohio, North Carolina, Colorado, and Nevada...

...what they don't seem to have is a web site or any apparent independent intertubes existence detectable by my feeble googling skills. If I may be so bold (ahem), this suspiciously looks to be an effort to try to twist Obama's courage at giving the 'go' command to the highly trained Seal team that got OBL into a negative and a weakness by saying, in effect, "you didn't kill the guy". It's kind of a bizarre place to try to plant one's flag in the case of either of this shadowy group's arguments, really, in consideration of the facts that:

1) the GWB administration was a virtual sieve of (mostly manufactured) classified information in its effort to gin up an invasion of Iraq, and,

2) there wasn't going to be any killing of OBL unless the President of the United States said "yeah, let's fly a bunch of Seals into a Sovereign Nation without invitation and kill some people living in that Sovereign Nation, including Public Enemy WhatEverHeIs"...

I didn't actually see this coming, which is probably a pretty powerful indictment of the political acumen that I was once so proud of. It is an interesting teaching point, however, as to the power that some people invest in the whole Swiftboating concept...
