W comments on UBL takedown
"I was eating souffle at Rise Restaurant with Laura and two buddies," Bush said when asked what he was doing when he received the call from President Obama, according to an ABC News contributor who attended the event.
"I excused myself and went home to take the call," Bush said. "Obama simply said 'Osama Bin Laden is dead.'"
Bush said Obama described in detail the secret mission to raid bin Laden's Pakistani compound and the decision he made to put the plan into motion. He told Obama, "Proof again that even the blind squirrel finds a nut on occasion." "Good call."
