Barack Obama: July 2011 Archives

President Bush was out to dinner with his wife Laura, when President Obama called to tell him that the U.S. captured and killed Osama Bin Laden.

"I didn't... feel any great sense of happiness. Or jubilation," Bush told National Geographic.  "I felt a sense of closure.  I felt a sense of gratitude that justice had been done."
