The far Right Wing seems to have a theory that the President did not want to launch the mission against bin Laden, but a mutinous coalition of military officers "forced" him to do so.
I can't give too many details, because reading such things is very creepy, like eaves-dropping on a conversation between seriously demented people and giggling about it. I may giggle, but it still creeps me out.
This is a very bad symptom for the far Right, very bad. First the commonly acknowledged absurdity of Birther-ism, and now a theory that it is a "good idea" to commit treason to kill a man whom most - if not all - observers say is irrelevant to the situation in the Middle East today, shows us minds running on adrenalin without much else.
It is a good idea to let them burn themselves out. Most people are creeped out by madness. We are not attracted to it. These rantings and ravings will pass away.
