Chain Email Says Obama Hypocrite on Bin Laden

The gullibility of folks is quite astonishing, especially since this email is absurd. It seems people would have better things to do, better things to think about. The growing, collective ignorance of this country is concerning.
Politifact thoroughly debunks ALL of the quotes attributed to Obama in a chain email that tries to counter the fact that Obama succeeded where his predecessor did not. Even I (with my daily Obama postings since 2008) can tell you with 100% positivity that this email is 100% false.
Obama would never ever say: ‘Navy Seal Team 6 is Cheney's private assassination team.’ Obama is an adult. That is language that would NEVER EVER EVER come out of his mouth.
He didn't say this: ‘I put together Seal Team 6 to take out Bin Laden.’
Everyone knows Obama didn't put together Team 6 (they were founded around 1980). That's just ridiculous.
And this: ‘Bin Laden is innocent until proven guilty, and must be captured alive and given a fair trial.’ It's definitely not anything Obama would say. It wouldn't be anything anyone would say, at least not in America.
What's astonishing is that there are people who would believe something that came in a chain email, especially this email because it really aims for the low hanging fruit, perhaps the dumb dumbs already lying on the ground. Whoever originated the email didn't try very hard.
Politifact:
Here’s the full text of the version we received:

"Here are the facts, you be the judge. These words were spoken by the same man in 2008 and then again in 2011.

"Short and sweet…

"OBAMA'S OWN WORDS TRAP HIM:

"2008: ‘Navy Seal Team 6 is Cheney's private assassination team.’
"2011: ‘I put together Seal Team 6 to take out Bin Laden.’

"2008: ‘Bin Laden is innocent until proven guilty, and must be captured alive and given a fair trial.’
"2011: ‘I authorized Seal Team 6 to kill Bin Laden.’

"2008: ‘Guantanamo is entirely unnecessary, and the detainees should not be interrogated.’
"2011: ‘Vital intelligence was obtained from Guantanamo detainees that led to our locating Bin Laden.’

"I HOPE THIS GETS SENT AROUND TO PEOPLE WHO CARE ABOUT THE TRUTH!"
