Bin laden killed

The decision to not release the pictures is the right one in my mind. If you don't believe he's dead, then will a picture really make you believe it? Probably not, most skeptics would then just scream "photoshop".

I'm OK with no pictures. Pictures will just bring out more nut-jobs.
CIA, Special Forces, Navy Seals - I trust to hunt the bad guys down. When the White House brags about it, well the truth isn't so clear!

This is just another chess move by this administration. I personally think he was killed a long time ago . I do not believe any thing that comes from the AP.

I am no homer for either side, and really do not believe either can affect us positively at this point in the game. I keep it to myself for the most part cause squawking about it does zero good. We got this motherfvkkr, finally. The USA did it. All of us have claimed a victory for our way of life. Let it rest for a few, and give credit where it is due.

Mike, While I agree with your sentiment and am glad to see the guy turned into fish food, the whole thing was turned political as soon as it was announced. I dont believe any president has ever used the word "I" as much as our current narcisist in chief. Obama wanted us to believe that he was responsible for this happening, but if you look at his record he did nearly everything he could to prevent it. The intel that started the trail to Osama started years ago with information from interogations the CIA performed in overseas prisons. These have been shut down under Obama. Truth be told we will probably not be able to catch Osamas replacement due to the changes the Obama administration has made. The announcment could have been made by the military or the whitehouse press secretary. Obama says we "dont spike the ball" right after he did in his speech, and then he sure set up a victory parade in New York in a hurry. He must be livid that he only saw a 1 point bump in the polls.

I agree with Ryan and Dave. this is the biggest show I've ever seen by our POTUS. I think it's funny Slick Willy and W wanted nothing to do with it.   

Everyone says what a gusty call it was. He had no choice, we knew he was there, we couldn't drop bombs in the residential and military area (and have no prof he was dead), so it was either do nothing (which slick willy did years ago when OBL was offer to him) or pull the trigger.

The plot thickens with the campaigner in chief.

I was taken back by the number of times Obama said "I" in his speach, but you got to give him credit for letting the military do its job and as Obama is the president, he will be credited with "getting" bin Laden in history.

As far as the jihadists and their dedication to their cause, it's pretty amazing that with a $25M reward on his head, no one dropped a dime on him in 10 years.

Hopefully the information seized from his "Lair" will lead to more "Head shots", Trial by Fire, "Gun Fire" that is!!

Whatever intel came from that house is only going to be good for a short while, we need to ramp it up right now and get it done. Al Zawahiri must be next, that nutjob is bad news.

of all the funny moments and things on the internet the funniest might be   osamas last face book message ..   B.R.B someones at the door.

I would love to hear you guys if it was Bush who made the call, on the others side of the coin when you say Healthcare, the first words out of your mouths are "obama". lol, give him some credit.
I would bet because of his close ties with the Saudi's, Bush had a no kill order for OBL.
What happened here is a good reminder of the intelligence available, it was in place back then as it is now, and we knew every move that guy made, and thats why im convinced Bush knew where he was

Eric, I quess I need resume making more political posts, you are sliding back left big time. When you site healthcare, that was a total Obama thing, Other than the prescription drug bennifit bush pushed through healtcare was not on the table during his presidency and I assure you he does not want any credit for it. Obama continually reminds us that the current economy is Bush's fault ignoring the fact that dems were on a two year spending spree and have suggested new taxes on everything plus carbon regulation. Obama has had a strong influence on the economy, and after two years it is his. THe war on terror has been significantly weakend by Obamas positions, he has closed our foriegn prisions, stopped water boarding, and if he had his way we would be issueing maranda rights on the battlefield. Tracking down Osama began with information from interogations in foriegn prisons, but Obama (I-Me-MY) went and on national TV and told us how he ordered that this capture should take place. The guy is a hypocrite looking for political gain. Notice that Bush turned down the invite to NY because he felt there is only one president at a time ad this was Baracks moment. That is class.

It's obvious O is only a puppet, but trying to find out who is pulling on his strings is the problem. This is an interesting take on what happened.

at the end of the day, one to the head and one to the chest, on his order.
im not hopping back on the bandwagon, its just funny to watch the finger pointing and when something good arises everyone balks. 20 years from now we all will be saying Obama got Bin Laden, plain and simple. at the time when Obama was elected one of the biggest factors that he is in there is because the economy tanked under a republican president, AKA Bush. it was a milestone 2 bucks from hitting a depression. 20 years from now thats what he will be remembered for.

really my thoughts are, gas is cheap, very cheap, and el presidente does not have much control of crude prices prices, nor does he have control of any commodity prices, if he could he would slap a 2.00 or 3.00 dollar a gallon tax on it....then we would really bitch. we all want the best of both worlds but dont want to sacrifice.

why dont we research housing prices or our 401's where it really hits you in the pocket book, nobody seems to mind. but gas shoots up a nickle and the 12 mpg crowd starts to bitch, once again economy cars are shooting up in sales, but you know the cycle will happen again, gas will hit a low spot and Cadillac Escalade sales will sore again. viscious cycle, and investors, anyone that has mutuals , IRA's or even 401"s expect to see a return on investments.
Obama had alot of negatives going into office and you know i probably wont vote for him again, give him this one
