OBAMA: Plenty of credit for all

| May 8, 2011 10:00 PM

Our military deserve our thanks and gratitude for a job well done; as does President Obama.

This is not a time for political points but a time for our country to reflect and breathe a sigh for something that has been 10 years coming. It felt like we had some form of closure as President Obama visited ground zero. I especially liked it when Obama said it didn't matter what administration was in charge, but that justice was done... as Americans we glowed with pride watching our military and our president show the world what we can accomplish with the right leadership. From FDR and the second world war, to JFK and Cuban missile crisis, great leaders always seem to show their mettle, and President Obama certainly did... Thank you to our military and to our president.
