Donald Rumsfeld, former Secretary of Defense to President George W. Bush, took to Twitter to criticize the White House for touting President Obama’s decision to go after Osama bin Laden while suggesting Mitt Romney wouldn’t have done the same.
The “special operators” Rumsfeld refers to below are presumably the Navy SEAL units that carried out the operation.
The special operators who have every right to “spike the football” are too professional to do so. The White House might follow their lead.
