If you’re not paying attention, you may miss this AP story about the American-born al Qaeda spokesperson getting captured in Pakistan. As this development is a major coup for the Obama administration and represents the fact that it is more successful fighting terrorism than the preceding Bush administration, the “liberal media” will probably not give it much attention. After all, the Obama administration is refusing to take the War on Terror “seriously” and anything that indicates otherwise is to be ignored. (F U Cheney!)

The capture of Adam Gadahn by Pakistani intelligence officers indicates that Pakistan is now a cooperating partner in the War on Terror, and not just giving us lip service as they accept billions of our tax dollars to provide the Taliban (and Osama bin Laden) safe haven inside its borders. How many al Qaeda were captured when Shrub was President? And remember all that harsh rhetoric of Obama’s regarding Pakistan that he was criticized for on the campaign trail? You know, the same rhetoric that supposedly showed how “inexperienced” he was to be President? (Meanwhile, his “experienced” rival can’t seem to remember if he is for or against cutting Medicare.) Well, it appears that such rhetoric has had an effect, as Pakistan is forced to work in partnership with the U.S. in the capture of al Qaeda residing within its borders.

But, as I said, as this reflects well on the Obama administration’s efforts to fight terrorism, it will be probably ignored by the media. The inevitable push back by the conservative media has all ready occurred. FOX News, the propaganda wing of the GOP, is claiming that a different associate of bin Laden’s was arrested in Karachi, with limited information available. (What did you expect? An acknowledgment of a job well done to the Obama administration?) I can’t wait for the inevitable post by that retard Sarah Palin’s Facebook writers suggesting that the capture of Gadahn makes our country ‘unsafe’.
