Taking Bin Laden out in Pakistan by Seal Team on the ground without informing the Pakistanis was all on Obama and his team, it was a gutsy move that Bush's cosy relationship with Pakistan (for reasons I don't understand, they were always more enemy than friend) would have made impossible, had Bush been in power Pakistan would have been asked, Osama would have bugged out twenty minutes later, and then a joint US Pakistani strike force a week later would have found an empty house.
