Top Obama campaign adviser Robert Gibbs defended a new ad that argues Mitt Romney would not have launched the raid to capture Osama bin Laden last year.
Gibbs said the advertisement, featuring former President Clinton and questioning whether Romney would have ordered the mission to kill bin Laden, one year after the raid was “not over the line.”
“Look, just a few years ago. President Obama, then a candidate said in a speech that if we had actionable intelligence of a high-value target in Pakistan we’d go in and get that high value target,” said Gibbs on NBC’s "Meet the Press" on Sunday. “Mitt Romney said that was foolish, he wouldn’t do such a thing. They wouldn’t move heaven and earth to get Osama bin Laden.”
