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.

Lots of people here claiming the highs of OBL’s death will only last a week. I dissagree. I think it will last 2 or 3 weeks.
The Seals deserve a ton of credit for this.
I celebrate our victory over the evil OBL.
Now, let’s work on getting Obama out of office in 2012.
>people have short memories, <
BINGO!!
Whomever “SWIFT BOATS” the other opponent in the last 3 months of the election will win the election.
Were living in the 24/7 news cycle: people will forget this next year UNLESS the MSM keeps harping about it...and they will do their best.
About an hour ago I went to Afghanistan family run Seven Eleven in my neighborhood and told the guy about the news he was surprised and then laughed with joy. I asked him if he was from Afghanistan and he said "No, I'm from Iran and Bin Laden killed many of my people. He made many bombs and used them against my people."
And he gave me a high five
Obama`s stock has gone way up as a result of the bin Laden kill. Watch for opposition to his policies to drop off markedly. Political capital is a valuable commodity, and the bin Laden kill gives him boatloads of it.
Yep, $7.00 gas will trump (scuse the pun) Osama.
And yours is the tactic of an Alinskyite!
Obama will get a bump similar to (or a little bit larger) that after the Giffords shooting. By the end of May, stories about gas prices will dominate the news again.
Yep, the MSM has been working hard to shorten the American attention span and that is to our benefit this time.
No one but an Obamabot is going to make him the hero of this. This was a win for the military and for all of the US to the average citizen. Obama gets credit, as do countless others. IMO, he shares in the credit for two reasons, he was the CIC and was involved. Secondly, he wisely continued and extended our efforts in Pak with more drone attacks. This is no great feat, as most anyone in the WH would do the same, but he did the right thing. That said, all other issues remaining the same, this is just one small blip of good news from an otherwise disastrous time.
It's called Ronald Reagan's 11th Commandment. You might want to try it. We may have a better chance to win in 2012
No so sure.
he MSM will go on about this for the next year or so.
Oh, it will be a much bigger bump than that. But we're not even close to the year 2012. I'm not wishing bad for America but if things continue as they are now, that bump will wear down long before the election.
Calm down FRiend.
Look, tonight I even said to my kid “let’s give Obama some kudos in a good heart, for the one time we will probably ever be able to do that. So let’s do it, in a good heart, because we’re conservatives and that’s what we do, we’re better than them”
And then I told her “no matter about this, vote Republican in 2012”
And she agreed on all points.
It’s good OBL got deaded, and to some extent we must give the big O credit for that (for surely we’d give him blame if OBL was seen lolling on the French Riviera or whatever), but at this point I don’t think it cements his re-election.
I certainly hope and pray not too.
>> Does not make sense.
It does if you consider the incremental attempt to destroy Christianity by the Left, and seize control of their assets.
The properties in the US territories are a big prize for the Left. The Left doesn’t want it destroyed by terrorists. The goal is to take it away from the Jews and Christians that are now in possession.
Egypt and Libya are test cases.
Your exactly right, it’s the economy,jobs, gas prices, food prices and everything else...If gas continues to rise, all are gonna go higher and then Bil Laden won’t matter at all!
“Thank G*d this didn’t happen a week before the election”
Amen to that, better early than late!
Here is my CYANIDE CAPSULE, take it, you sure need it more than I do!
Your panic is unwarranted.
All he has to do now is drill ANWR and it’s all but over
