The reaction of pro-Iraq, pro-Bush policy hawks to this successful mission led by Pres. Obama is one of the more interesting cases of cognitive dissonance that I've seen in quite a while. Fascinating.

Cognitive dissonance? Nah, I think they know they're spouting a bunch of false crap.
I'm looking at that quote Dakota posted. That guy is flummoxed by having to face the fact that Pres. Obama successfully led a game-changing military mission that his hero, Pres. Bush, was unable to complete. So instead of admitting that their pre-conceived notions about Pres. Obama were wrong, the reaction is "told you so" claiming that this is a victory for the Bush approach, evidence to the contrary.
To me that looks like classic cognitive dissonance.
I think that's classic cognitive dissonance.
