One of the most hated men in history has been killed by our troops by a Commander-in-Chief who has done everything in his power to demean, de-fund, impose demeaning homosexuality and restrict the ability of our troops to fight terror, including pursuing civilian trials for captured would-be terrorists.
Let's be fair here, the average American hasn't a clue what century the French & Indian War was fought in and probably cannot tell you who who Joe Biden is, so the mainstream media will run with this for all its worth. The Media will give 100% credit to Obama and mark my words, the RINOs will kow-tow even more and the Dems will be emboldened.
The moronic college kids and their Commie professors will forget all their anti-American, pro-terror rhetoric just enough for Novermber 2012 to come around. The media is fully invested in Obama and cheered and lied for him even when to most Americans he was failing. This single act is their inverted Pearl Harbor, they will fly the "Obama killed Osama when Bush Couldn't" forever.
This moniker will follow Obama forever, like how Watergate will always be tagged to Richard Nixon and how Bush I will be credited with toppling the Iraqis in 1991.
This will be forever spun by journalists and a crowning moment, a reason that Obama is tough and another way to let him have his way with the economy, jobs, climate change, unions, Libya, nuclear power, Obama Care, homosexual marriage, gun confiscation, tax hikes, gas prices, educational failure, amnesty...the butter will be softened forever for Obama, he will not need a steak knife, merely a butter knife to get things done. Look for the EPA, FDA, FCC and every other attack dog regulatory agency to become hyper-aggressive in the coming months and years.

All the more reason that we must obtain a veto-proof majority in congress. Unless we have that advantage, he will be emboldened to finish what he started; fundamentally transforming our (once) great nation.
Obama bin Biden has the media on his side. Until we can beat the liberals in the news room and the college classrooms, logic will not have a place in American politics.
Good Lord, why are you bringing this up now!!?
The death of Osama will give Obama a one week spike, if that. No one thinks TOTUS was the reason, no matter how hard they flog that dead horse.
But Daddy, the pRes still has no clothes....
obamasama-in-cheif has zero chance of winning another 4 years no matter that our military killed osama. zero.
do you remember bush first after first Gulf war and stratospheric levels of popularity he enjoyed for the decisive win in that war? What happened to him??? He lost, that’s what happened!!!
If this was september of ‘12 perhaps he would have some residual advantage, but believe me, no matter what this charlatan does, American people have already made up their minds. He is a goner and the progs know it.
DUDE! LOL!
Obama will struggle to be re-elected due to the weak economy, just as George Bush Sr. won the Gulf War and then lost relection.
I agree with the original poster. This seals the deal for Obama in 2012. People keep citing the approval ratings of Bush Sr and Bush Jr. but the difference is they did not have the media in their pocket (including Fox News ) the way Obama does.
The truth is even before this Obama had to be considered a strong favorite to get re-elected given his GUARANTEED 100 % black vote and 70% hispanic vote are nearly impossible to overcome given the current racial make up of the USA ( it wont be long before blacks and mexicans out number whites) so it wont get any better for future election cycles.
Now you have this ... The media will give ALL the credit to Obama.
I would be shocked if Trump ran after this. Why would he waste all his own money on a losing cause, and ditto for Romney. I believe we will be left with some 3rd string candidate like T-Paw just because somebody has to run, and they will probably lose 45-47 states.
Sure go ahead and call me a troll but anybody who thinks I am wrong is living in denial.
Come on the liberal trolls are out in full force tonight they want to demoralize you into inaction.
And I care what you think because, why?
‘that’s why the Lefty Media could never slam Reagan’
Very funny! You certainly have a dry sense of humor!
LOL, sure, sure and I recall when Geo Bush one had an approval rating of over 90% right after the Gulf war (1) and how did that work out?
Anyone here remember the phrase that sunk Bush? “It’s the economy, stupid”
Expect to hear the libs now declare victory in the wot and demand we pull all troops out of Pakistan, Libya, Iraq and everywhere else we are currently fighting.
The GOP couldn't lose 45-47 states if we dug up Nixon and ran him. Do you honestly think the South, Texas, Oklahoma and Alaska would ever go for Obama?
You don't know much about electoral politics.
IMHO bambi is gone.....Osama is old news and gas is $4/gal on the low end....toast.
Are you NUTZ? This will not ensure Obama’s reelection (the fecklessness of the Republicans might do that-but that’s another story), The death of Osama will give Barack Obama some popularity in next few weeks; then the news cycle will move on, the American people will forget/and get back to life under Obama’s economics.
Obama’s popularity will peak for a while, but this will become yesterday’s news. The first President Bush was believed to be unbeatable immediately after Operation Desert Storm.
Posty note on a gas pump.....
Usama Bin Laden is dead
But our budget is still in the red.
He got shot in the ass
But we’re still paying $4.00 for gas.
Hopey Changey my ass !!!!
Zero’s popularity will last until Americans fill their gasoline tanks again today and go to the grocery store and see the prices up for another day. Or, those that will receive their pink slips this week.
Reality is that Zero had absolutely nothing to do with OBL’s death. Thank our troops. The arrogant Dictator is trying to take the credit. Slime personified, IMO.
And thank President GW Bush for putting policies in place that allowed this to happen. And remember that Obama is on the record of wanting to dismatle those policies. I am glad he gave the order, but suspect it had a lot to do with his internal polling.
