Obama to speak in 30 minutes - or in an hour or two (Live Thread)

Posted on 05/01/2011 7:11:45 PM PDT by ConservativeMan55

Geraldo just announced Obama will make some sort of statement in 30 minutes. Geraldo says this is unusually late and figures it has something to do with Libya.

Might be the version you are using, I just went to Google Maps via Google Search Engine (using that towns name), hit the map, and then zoomed in accordingly, finding those other landmarks around that place.

Jonny, that badge will be in GWB’s presidential library. It’s already in the preliminary museum of artifacts from his presidency. I hope Mrs. Howard is well and still with us to see our brave Navy Seals get that bastard at last. :)

Yes, that is the Bin Ladin compound in Abbotabad, including the large lawn (that was probably used for helocopter landings)....

Perhaps. I’m just saying if they could have gotten him alive that may have been better. Presumably there was some point at which our guys had him in their sights and someone fired the kill shot. I’m just saying maybe it would have been better to go for his knees or some other non-lethal force. Maybe have some taser type weapon to knock him out. I understand if they couldn’t. Who knows maybe one of his own bodyguards took him out when they saw how close we were(he had said he’d never be taken alive and his guards had orders to kill him if he was in danger of being captured-of ocurse we’d never admit the real story).

But I was just thinking of some of the intel he took with him that we’ll never have access to.

thanks, i found it. it’s actually now listed on google maps as “Osama Bin Laden’s compound” a bit easier to find. Right near the golf course and the movie theater.

I’m somewhat surprised he’d be somewhere that stood out so easily.

It's not just about the Donald. Ninth circus Court case is tomorrow. Trump is aware of what they are presenting. Three extra lawyers and an document expert were called in recently.

They've had this information for some time and have been practicing. They could have planned it at another time. Just too coincidental that the BC case is less than 12 houses from the announcement of USAama’s death.

Also consider that Will and Kate (who didn't invite him to their wedding) postponed their honeymoon because of this. BO also "controlled" their activities. He is such a control freak. I I I I me me me me.

LoL!

I'm sitting down, watching TV. I am not on my knees. President Obama delivered good news to the nation on Sunday evening and he looked presidential.

Just a ping to all fellow freepers... Please note the qualifier in the post by this individual

"I did not vote for him in 2008 and I most probably will not vote for him in 2012."

This person did NOT vote for OBIE in 2008.

OKAY.. good...

and MOST PROBABLY will NOT vote for him in 2012!!!!

Does anyone else see the problem here???? So there MIGHT be a PROBABILITY that this person WILL be supporting OBAMA in 2012!!!

Just what does it take to constitute being a troll on FR these days???? Inquiring minds want to know?

Secondary criticism of bad graphic which took me a moment to see ostrich with head in sand so I guess many freepers who look at obama the same as I are head in sand according to this genius.

Former President George W. Bush released a statement after he received a call from Obama:

“Earlier this evening, President Obama called to inform me that American forces killed Osama bin Laden the leader of the al Qaida network that attacked America on September 11, 2001.

I congratulated him and the men and women of our military and intelligence communities who devoted their lives to this mission. They have our everlasting gratitude.

This momentous achievement marks a victory for America, for people who seek peace around the world, and for all those who lost loved ones on September 11, 2001. The fight against terror goes on, but tonight America has sent an unmistakable message:

No matter how long it takes, justice will be done.”

As always, his ever present and unwavering resolve and love of country. God bless him.

He is the ever gracious leader. While the other one, “I gave the order -—” Yeah, right. It took him 3 days to decide to give the order to fire on those Somali pirates.

Obama just said he was killed today... am I hearing this wrong?
“He just contradicted all the early reports. Lots of water carriers are going to have to back track.”

Not to worry. The media will cover his ass and not even mention the contradictions. They did`nt mention them last night after the ears-in chief`s victory dance.
