Not exactly. He didn't really have a choice of being in theatre or not, and getting reports and making command decisions is not the same as directing the war. That was left up to the Generals Scott, Burnside, McClellan, and Grant (among many others).Originally Posted by genpop
Because that's not what that word means. If President Obama makes a similar decision to affect health care, will that make him a doctor?Why? Because some confused liberals will think that Obama flew down out of the chopper himself and shot Bin Laden? You people constantly say that liberals think the American people are too stupid to think for themselves but here you are blasting CNN for giving the President too much credit because the people might forget who actually pulled the trigger.
For what it's worth, it's equally dumb when they use it to describe an athlete or musician. I believe that topic has already been discussed on here.
If you are too stupid to see how ridiculous the statement is, then I have no more patience to explain it. I just know if they would have called Bush a warrior president, we would have heard you whine and make reference to it for a week. Since it is your booty buddy Barack, you love it.Why?

100% correct!
Maybe you're the one that's stupid. I'm sure that CNN is giving praise to the President's role in an accomplishment (capturing Bin Laden). What exactly did Bush do to warrant that type of praise? And if I remember correctly, Bush and Guiliani were given all kind of titles (by your standard ridiculous ones). Were you on here whining about Bush being given credit for rallying the country against the terrorist? I highly doub it.

I had to look up the definition. I'm not sure I agree with the definition, but that's what it is.
1. a person engaged or experienced in warfare; soldier.
2. a person who shows or has shown great vigor, courage, or aggressiveness, as in politics or athletics.
Not a bad place to put this one.
