Obama's gutsy call to get Osama bin Laden was actually Valerie Jarrett's

The Daily Caller reports:

At the urging of Valerie Jarrett, President Barack Obama canceled the operation to kill Osama bin Laden on three separate occasions before finally approving the May 2, 2011 Navy SEAL mission, according to an explosive new book scheduled for release August 21. The Daily Caller has seen a portion of the chapter in which the stunning revelation appears.

In “Leading From Behind: The Reluctant President and the Advisors Who Decide for Him,” Richard Miniter writes that Obama canceled the “kill” mission in January 2011, again in February, and a third time in March. Obama’s close adviser Valerie Jarrett persuaded him to hold off each time, according to the book.

Considering that “killing bin Laden” is fully half of the given reasons for Obama’s re-election (the other half being “GM is alive,” which is only half-true), this could be a painful shin-kick for Obama’s campaign, or at the very least, yet another reason to question the official narrative:

@CrankyTRex I hadn't heard that. I think we need to edit Obama's movie about his gutsy call

Is it still a gutsy call if you canceled it three times before? #binladen #obama #socalledgutsycall

Some speculated it was just another sign that Jarrett is the one wearing the real mom-jeans at the White House:

@Snarky_Basterd @irishspy I hear that has been going on for a long time. What Valerie says OB does.Staff get access to Pres if she gives OK.

So Obama never really made that so called "gutsy" call to kill Osama, Valerie Jarrett did. Good to know the US is in her hands, right?
