The wife says he never left the house the past five years, now someone says he was in and out of the house. That means someone is fibbing.
I understand your sentiments exactly....and to an extent I share them.
But another part of me argues on behalf of accurate history.
Historians have the reputation of being dull, academic wonks and nerds, overly-striving for accuracy, detail, even minutia in their search for truth to pass down to posterity.
But, thank God for these "nerds" and their efforts throughout the centuries to bring us detailed and accurate accounts of what happened in their day.
Even today, readers appreciate and study the smallest details about the lives, careers and deaths of historical figures such as the Borgias and Napoleon, for example.
Therefore, all data about the death of the mass murderer, OBL, should be accurately reported and recorded despite the offhand, understandable "who cares" attitude of many of us.
An attitude of not pressing for accurate details is exactly what the D.C. thugocracy surrounding Obama wants.
The Obama administration wants today's history, including the unvarnished facts of OBL's death, to be distorted, obliterated, revised.....and above all to be entirely about the daring feats of Obama, not the Truth.

I heard this morning that bin Laden had never been spotted going in or out of the house and that they were not 100% sure of him being there?
You are “right-on” again, my friend!
Oh, so you believe everything Obama & HIS new media tell you? Well, I don't!
