(Newser) – President Obama will thank in person tomorrow members of the elite Navy SEALs unit that killed Osama bin Laden, reports AP. The president is expected to meet at least part of the squad when he visits Fort Campbell in Kentucky. Dont' expect a parade or even a glimpse: The so-called Team Six is a highly secretive group.

Really--a bit gross. The whole reason Special Ops is special is cause they don't need recognition. Eagle Claw--remember that piece of bullshit--that failed cause of the helicopters and not the men but nine of them died and Carter didn't go see them. They're black ops. They got a black budget that you will never know about and they train for crap you can't think of. Dumb ass move to please a country getting dumber by the minute. You don't go visit the hangman and say good job. In a firing squad there is one blank so no one ever knows--stop it. This isn't normal stuff. Leave it alone. Obama isn't going there but it's sickening that he has to say he is cause this country is about as dumb as the Soviet Union when it fell on its idiot ass cause there were no birthers but no one there gave a shit about a thing cause if I gotta turn off the reactor for a bonus I will and then oops, Chernobyl. Best country in the world--you got shit that other people can't even imagine and you still aren't happy.
