It was hardly a no-lose situation for the President. If the op went badly, it would reflect on him. Think Jimmy Carter and Desert One. Granted, the OBL op wasn't nearly as complex, but it didn't exactly go smoothly.
In any case, Obama is not 'evil', 'child-like', or a 'socialist'. That's just hateful language used by the far right.
I'm totally fine with the current 'regime' (another hate-loaded term) focusing on the economy and global destabilization. A strong economy is critical to this nation's health and safety. More critical than a few extra brigades or fighter squadrons.
And any President not focusing on getting re-elected in an election year probably shouldn't be President in the first place.
