It’s all over the map, but yeah....there’s some joy there, too. The happy-dancers seem split between those who feel this will cinch his re-election, and those who are already spending the anticipated savings “now that the war on terror is over”! Crazy vermin. I don’t blame you for avoiding the site......5 minutes reading and you need a shower.

It's a real danger to politicize this

Exactly! It would be irresponsible for Obama to use this issue during a campaign. His hands are pretty much tied. If he talks about it too often he's inviting terror attacks (which are almost already guaranteed in retaliation).

That's not to say that MSNBC won't be doing it though. In fact, they may do it with hopes that a terrorist attack in the US will occur just so Obama can have his 911 moment like Bush had.

Democrats will accept many deaths in America if their party could win an election because of it.

And now Homeland Security will use this as an excuse to do anal searches of all US citizens along with video cameras on every block.

A Great Job done by them!

I am still angry with Pres Obama for granting citizenship to the three convicted Terrorists by Homeland Security ....which makes me feel very insincure.

I was ready to after the last few hours of watching the various L/MSM news on the killing of Obama, whoops, Osama, Hussein, whoops, Bin, whoops Obama, whoops, Laden. Hard for me to differentiate between them on a number of given planes, was ready to close all the browser tabs down and call it a night.
FR tabs where the last to close. It is 2PM ETA. Got your ping.
As you, I am angry over the kenyan usurper for a great number of things.
How can anyone that has in even in a cursory mode investigated this creep and all he stands for and all the small through large foundations, other, far left and even worse organizations he has been groomed in over the years have any respect for him.
NOW. He probably with good timing, has negated all the things around his fraudulent arise to power with the help of the L/MSM in the coming days.... nullified any traction that was being developed in pointing out he had no right to run for the POTUS and CIC.
It is weird in a way why none of us did not see such a clever timing of having our HONORABLE JSOC's teams who probably knew for weeks plus, perhaps more, that this was the place to take out the goon, and had been ordered to take UBL out much earlier.
The timing is almost incredulous. As the socialist FDR chuckled many years back.... nothing happens without a good reason.
With that Ernest and all late comers that read this post. I have to hit the rack. Do have a blessed and healthy upcoming day, all.
PS. Strange for me. Well before I joined FR. I had been involved in a Flight Simulator... X-Plane Forum. There, it was not to long after 9/11.... and a sub forum came about, I had intercourse with other x-planers.... and repeatedly told them all it would come to past that the goon would be found and taken out in some private compound somewhere far from the ravages of some cave. I joked about a nice hotel with a swimming pool and other finery. So it came to past.

There is such a delicious irony that it was on Easter Sunday that he was killed then.

Petraeus did not want the group that performed the act identified. It is perfectly possible that they were not regular troops. Obama hinted at this in his speech, crediting Leon Panetta. I read that Petraeus pressured Obama not to identify the group and that Obama reluctantly consented.

I’m thinking that this had something to do with the job switch between Petraeus and Panetta.

If anything, Duh-bama shot himself in the foot again. His premise for being elected is shot to hell through the vigilance of our armed forces.

Unlike the JACKASS party, you identified the terrorists and put us on a path to eliminate them.

Two real dangers out there :

Zawahiri is still alive

Obama will now be free to dismantle our military and use those dollars for his socialist agenda.

We have no "dollars". We have paper debt symbols. You are correct in that he will dismantle the military and pretend that there are real funds.

We’ll continue to feel insecure and to experience hardship and terror as long as this piece of mystery meat occupies the White Hut!!
