Nancy Pelosi, press conference, September 7, 2006:

[E]ven if [Osama bin Laden] is caught tomorrow, it is five years too late. He has done more damage the longer he has been out there. But, in fact, the damage that he has done ... is done. And even to capture him now I don't think makes us any safer.

Nancy Pelosi, earlier today:

The death of Osama bin Laden marks the most significant development in our fight against al-Qaida. ... I salute President Obama, his national security team, Director Panetta, our men and women in the intelligence community and military, and other nations who supported this effort for their leadership in achieving this major accomplishment. ... [T]he death of Osama bin Laden is historic....

It is unfortunate that many public figures are unable to view events otherwise than through a partisan prism. Osama bin Laden's operational significance had undoubtedly dwindled over the years, and al Qaeda, after nine years of relentless attacks, is a shadow of its former self. But bin Laden's death is obviously an important and helpful milestone in the long war against radical Islam. Congratulations to all who worked so hard for nearly a decade to bring it about.

Within 6 months of Pelosi being outed Bin Laden is allegedly killed.

What did Pelosi know, when did she know it and how many times did she tip off Pakistan?

Stupid Pelosi, the federal government has done and continues to do far more damage to America than Osama bin Laden ever dreamed.

Osama won. The federal government is doing the work he couldn’t.

The same people who insisted President Bush strictly obey the Law prohibiting political assassination. Suffer amnesia when the one violating the Law is a Democratic President. To a Democrat ANY evil done by their own is “ok” so long as it advances their “cause” in this they are so like the Muslim....or the Communist. The “mission” was authorized by the same person and for the same reason the purported Long Form Birth Cert. was released now— to assure the reelection of Osama been Obama.
