CBS Runs to Obama's Defense Over Card Games on Night of Bin Laden Raid

Norah O'Donnell and Charlie Rose acted as apologists for President Obama on the 15 August 2013 edition of CBS This Morning after former presidential assistant Reggie Love revealed the Democrat's apprehension to monitor the Navy SEAL raid that killed Osama bin Laden. O'Donnell worried that "some people are going to take that headline out of context today", and quickly asserted that it was "clearly a tension-filled day."

Rose was even more blatant in his defense of the President: "I want the President to do whatever he needs to do to clear his mind, so he can make the most effective decision he can."
