How did Pres BO turn the killing of OBL into another display of narcissism?

How did The White House mess this up so much?

How did the killing of Osama turn into another example of Pres BO's narcissism?

It starts with too much "Obama".  Too much concern about approval ratings had the mission failed.  Too much about our "courageous" president and not a word about the Navy Seals and everybody else who contributed to finding OBL.

Do you think that General Eisenhower would have made a presentation like that following the surrender of Germany in 1945?  Or Pres Truman taking all of the credit for forcing Japan to surrender?

Someone needs to tell Pres BO to stop talking about "himself" and be more presidential by giving the Navy Seals, and all of those intelligence analysts, the credit for this.  (Leaders get the credit when they praise their subordinates for a job well done)

Pres BO also skipped anther important detail:  We got the info by shaking up 3 terrorists in GITMO.   Former AG Mukasey told Paul Gigot about it:

"We got troves of information from all three. We arrested Hambali, Ramzi bin Al Shibh, a whole array, a whole rogues gallery of terrorists who were prepared to carry off attacks. Mike McConnell, the director of....

GIGOT: Former national director of intelligence.

MUKASEY: Correct. Said that there are people walking around today who would not be walking around today if those techniques had not been used."

We are now learning of a Plan B, or the plan that would have protected Pres BO if the raid had failed.  According to news reports, The White House was ready to blame Navy Admiral McRaven had the raid failed. 

We repeat that this is just more evidence that we have a narcissist rather than a leader in The Oval Office.  

How did Pres BO turn an American victory into another display of narcissism?
