I am not a Bush supporter or an Obama hater ... I was just put off a bit by all of the references to what "I" did to get Bin Laden.

And if you look at the text of Bush's 2003 "Mission Accomplished" speech (8 years, to the day, prior to Obama's speech), you'll see that Bush used "I" about 6 times, "we" about 35 times and "our" about 30 times. That speech lasted about 2-1/2 minutes.

If you remember, Bush's speech declared that we had "prevailed in Iraq" - despite the fact that an additional 3,400 US service members were still to die in that conflict.

No Americans were killed in the action described by Obama on this May 1st.
