Osama bin Laden is dead.

[Ritty77]

That's the breaking news. The President of the United States to speak soon.

[Ritty77]

Andrea Mitchell on MSNBC:

Obama has done what two previous American presidents failed to do.

[Ritty77]

[Doug Loss]

Ummm...this is bull. Bin Laden's been dead for years. Obama just needed something to take credit for and this was a convenient time to make the announcement.

[twinder]

I don't care how grisly they may be, I want to see pictures of his dead body. I want to see video of him being dumped, not buried, as if it were some ceremony, but dumped like trash into the ocean.

We all know such photos or videos exist. So, show them.

[leisuresuitlarry]

That whole burial at sea thing pisses me off. Screw muslim tradition! If any muslim deserved to have their religious rights violated it was that scum-bag. His body should have been taken to NY so folks could buy tickets for $1 each to get in line and take a piss on the body - all funds raised going to help survivors of 9/11. For $5 you get to take a crap on him. Once that wrapped up then further desecrate the body by dipping it in pig excrement and blood, then who knows... let the crows have it maybe.

I want to see pictures too, even video would be nice. I'm sure those SEALS were wearing helmut cams and the whole raid was documented. I want to see the head shot.

Geez Larry, does this make us racists for wanting vengeance?

[relenemiller]

I never fail to be amazed at ignorance! If the American people fall for this....what am I saying....fall for this??? They fell over two years ago for "change" and they will fall for this one too. Doug's right. Osama BL has been dead for probably more years than we will ever know...or not yet...but....this coupled with the longer form of the COB last week is political rhetoric. Gotta give the guy's PR team credit for a clever one. Now, they have DNA positive? When they can't get DNA tests back on anyone for weeks? You can fool some of the people some of the time and in America, you can fool all of the people all of the time

[relenemiller]

And.....even if this were true........and this person doesn't believe it is.....but, even if it were......even shark have discriminating tastes so the body should eventually wash up on shore

No, I think the kooks, like those at the nest, would label it "Islamaphobe" because obviously in my comment above I express how afraid I am of the evil muslims, right?

Hilfirnuts typing as CHayes already called me an islamaphobe in on of the comment sections over at the SG.

They wouldn't have anything if they couldn't put labels on everyone and classify you and me and everyone else as some kind of phobe or racist or whatever.

'Double-tapped' to the left side of face...

Literally, the last thing he saw was a bullet.

[Doug Loss]

Jose, when they scream "Islamophobe," just answer back with "Ameriphobe!"

[leisuresuitlarry]

It would fall on deaf ears though. You know how closed minded and stupid they all are.

[Ritty77]

As the story unfolds, this looks like some long term tailing and espionage over the better part of a decade or more. It's good that they could work together and keep focused even through changes in administrations.

This is the good part of government. Money well spent.

[twinder]

We should immediately sever all ties with Pakistan, stop any further financial aid to them, and recall any ambassador or embassy staff there. No questions asked, no warning, just get out and tell them to F off.

Next, we should remove all our troops from Afghanistan and Iraq. Bring them home and do it now.

Lastly, send that same group of NAVY Seals into Libya and end this crap with Moamar.

[Doug Loss]

You don't call them Ameriphobe to get them to self-reflect, Jose. That's a lost cause; they're much to narcissistic to ever believe anything bad about themselves. You call them Ameriphobe to make clear to observers that they are fundamentally unAmerican.

[leisuresuitlarry]

Gotcha. I like some of the comments at SG directed at JH by valves. Pointing out his leftism and mental illness.

[philunderwood]

Way back in the fifties I was stationed at the amphibious base at Coronado, CA. What were called frogmen back then had their own section on the base, but we were aware of them and watched them work out. To say we were impressed would be a gross understatement.

I’ve since read what I could find about them and I believe they deserve every bit of their reputation.

[leisuresuitlarry]

So the whole thing is a shame huh? They now say they are not going to release any photos to prove to the world that the scum bag is dead. So Obama's administration made the whole thing up to garner popularity for his re-election bid? That must be how things are done in Chicago. They couldn't put pics of Abu Grab out quick enough in an effort to embarrass the Bush administration, so don't tell me it's out of concern for our troops. Our troops can take care of themselves and why would it be such a bad thing to smoke a few of these jihadist out so we can blow them away anyhow? You'd think the powers that be would want us to see and know for sure what our glorious leader has accomplished.

[Doug Loss]

It's like they actively want the world to question the results of this action. The refusal to release pictures, the multiple contradictory stories, the hurried disposal of the body...all this coupled with the Obama regime's demonstrated penchant for lying and stonewalling are gradually increasing the number of people questioning every aspect of this action. They either are incompetent about public relations or they're so arrogantly (and deludedly) self-assured about their believability that they can't even see the problem.
