Pakistan to Return U.S. Chopper Tail

By TOM WRIGHT and MATTHEW ROSENBERG

ISLAMABAD – Pakistan has agreed to return the tail section of a U.S. helicopter used in the raid that killed Osama bin Laden earlier this month.

Sen. John Kerry, who met Monday with senior Pakistani civilian and military officials in Islamabad, said the gesture was among a number of steps both countries had agreed to take to rebuild shattered relations.

Will he, who bypassed Bambi, be around if there should be a next term for him?

If not, Bambi will have free reign to accellerate his destruction of the country.

Don’t worry, most of the parts were made in China anyway, like so many products nowadays.

"They allowed the chicoms to inspect it and take samples."

Fox reported it as it was happening.

So, who gets the credit? Bammy, or Senator “Did you know I was in Vietnam?” Kerri?

Kerry was in Viet Nam? You'd think he'd mention it more often.

The chicoms want to see all of us dead. We will have to fight them one day... if obama does not surrender first.

Right after the ChiComs, Ruskies and anyone else got a good look.>>>>>>>>>

Probably numerous electronics removed from it and software ripped off but we won’t say anything because it will tarnish the image of “gutsy” Commander Obama. We will get back 90% of that tail section.
