It shows Obama is really just an empty suit.

He claims a leadership role, “he ordered this”, yet goes golfing. Needs to leave a little early from the golf course.

Count me as one of the doubting Thomas also. We are talking about a administration that blatantly play with the jobless numbers and such.

Maybe I won't doubt it if photo evidence is ever produced. The immediate burial at sea makes one wonder.

I can hear this exchange between (!)bama while on the golf course and the Navy Admiral in charge.
(.): Now, I want your personal guarantee, this is absolutely solid correct no mistakes.
Adm: Yes Sir, we have confirmed it three ways.
(.): I am not talking waves here, I want to know if there is any surprise coming, like you don’t have a death certificate.
Adm: Death Certificate, Sir? This is the best we can do from the scene of the engagement in hostile territory.
(.): I am not curious about what or where, I only want one answer, he is dead right, I don’t want some surprise from Donald Trump.
Adm: We are almost 100% positive,sir, Yes.
(.): You are talking to me, the President here, I don’t want any waffling...now, when is it I gave the order to go ahead on this?
Adm: Sir, these were our standing orders from the CIC for ten years.
(.): Forget that, you got it, when you get a new CIC, does he not contramand all orders given before him for which he does not agree?
Adm: You mean like DADT sir?
(.): Don’t be cute, did I cancel this order from my predecessor about killing OSL? Since I did not, this will be my order if you are asked, period.
Adm: Correct sir. Sir, do you want to know what the actual order was?
Click buzz.

Obama's use of I and Me during the news conference was sickening. Had Obama's promises of ending water boarding and other "enhanced" interrogation, closing Gitmo, giving and terrorists civilian trials this would NOT have happened.

While I am happy Osama is now in hell where he belongs, the war of terror is NOT finished and I would expect that terrorists groups world wide will seek retribution.

Obama had to be conflicted over this:

- Kill a brother at the risk of upsetting other brethren?; or,

- Kill a brother and reap the political benefits at home?

Solution: A round of golf to help clear the mind.

Bottom line is the SEALS took care of the business. They deserve the credit along with the rest of the military and the CIA that collected the intel. The timing of all this seems a little fishy given the totality of the circumstances. During Trumps show, we were given notice that programming was going to be broken into. Then it took an hour to find the TOTUS and program it for what to say. I am happy that OBL is wearing a ham hat now, but who got fired on the Apprentice???

It will change nothing, gas is going to $5, the dollar is worth less every week, and people live in fear of what's going to happen next.

This will be milked by them for a week, and unless they find a perpetual motion energy machine the greens will allow us to build, we're still in a heap of trouble, and so is the rat party.

The Times Square would be bomber was from the same town as where OBL was hiding in plain sight.

O probably has him relaxing in a posh NYC hotel awaiting trial.

Announcement comes on May 1st. Is Obama simply kicking off the May disruptions that we’ve been hearing about...taking down the banks, riots, etc.

How many times did O have to say "I" and "ME" during his little speech?
Always to the glory to O.

“I’m a lot more concerned about my own back yard. “My own back yard” being Free Republic and the amazing numbers of lunatics who have already developed “That’s not John Wilkes Booth” type conspiracy theories.”

I guess I’ve been called worse than lunatic; nevertheless it’s an inescapable truth that we can’t trust anything our government people say - especially Barack Hussein Obama.

Well, the thought about how the attempt to have this happen on MAY DAY has crossed my mind...

THANK YOU, I could not find the word to describe how I feel, but you nailed it: nonplussed. There are no cheers in my heart.

It was only hours before the Obama media got into full swing along with all Democrat operatives after Obama made the announcement. The party line will be to crush all criticism or questioning of Obama in a big time effort to give a big boost to Obama being reelected in 2012.

It begins: “New DNC chief: Obama deserves credit for bin Laden killing.” A Huffington Post reporter gloats: “Chants of ‘four more years!’ in front of WH.”

obambi will get a dead cat bounce in the polls, and the euphoria will last until the next time you drive into the gas station and drop $50 - $100 in filling up your tank, or over to the super market and pay $ 200 for what you paid $ 100 a few months ago.

No inflation if all that you count is the price of a house, but don't count fuel or food, two things that you really don't need.

We have a very very odd reaction to the death of the guy. The display in front of the White House last night just felt weird. This morning the news nerds are acting kind of weird too. Especially Geraldo.

It's not weird...it's the media and the libs celebrating because they see this as giving Obama a lock on four more years and reversal of the gains by conservatives.

The fact that the polls were tanking for Obama meant that he had to do something pretty drastic to save his sorry ass like play the card that had probably been held back.

I'm glad that bin Laden is dead but I'm disgusted that this gives Obama a bump towards 2012.

I feel the same way.

This is a minor distraction. OBL as a player was finished a long time ago. His apex was 9-11-01.

I am not celebrating. The story is changed so much in less than 12 hours, I fell like just waiting to see if it is real or if we are being played.

There better be pictures and DNA tests made public.

And where is Mullah Omar and al-Zwahiliri?

We must have known that OBL was in Pokeestan for some time. Makes you wonder why now?

Oh yeah, Zero’s poll numbers were at the lowest point in his Residency.

A fake birth certificate showed him how gullible the American public is.

Color me skeptical.
