Second is the killing of Osama Bin Laden; What President wouldn’t have made this call? What 10 year old wouldn’t make this same call?? BUT he is the only President I know of that was sooooooo quick to brag, and give Hollywood “unprecedented” access and in the process gave them the real HERO, Dr. Shakil Afridi who is now serving 33 years in a Pakistani prison and leaving his family in anguish. NOT only is that bad enough but because of this ‘gaffe’ it has left our intelligence community at risk and ruining our reputation, who would trust us now? There is no measuring the damage this bragger has done to our intelligence community…Barack Obama ‘LEFT a man behind’, Dr. Shkil Afridi should not be forgotten he and the SEALS are the real heros…

I looked up the definition of the word “Fluch.” Here it is…..

Fluch: n. curse, malediction; execration; oath; cause of evil, curse…..adj. under a curse, accursed…..accursed, execrable. n. accursed fate…..blasphemer; bad swearer.

As Mel Allen used to say “How about that!”
