Osama is dead

[777 fixer]

He's dead. The minutae doesn't really matter much to me or probably to most Americans...

During the Bush administration there were people who hated him so much they were willing to entertain the notion that he masterminded the 9-11 attacks. Just as there are people who have it in so badly for Obama that they are going to say the whole OBL is dead is just one big lie. The two groups have one thing is common, they are both equally stupid.

People jumping from the WTC. Now THOSE are the pictures that outraged me. Waiting 10 years to see bin Laden dead. Show me!

It feels like it was just yesterday when the news of targeted assassinations would unleash Leftist handwringing for weeks.

Do you honestly think the CIA is going to send it out to a lab and have their specimen wait in line with all the other DNA test or do you think they may have just run it in their lab at the highest priority? Which do you think is more likely? Enough with all the unsubstantiated paranoia already. It's getting tiresome.

Hey hot dog, came out today DNA results weren't back yet....... 😛

7 Minutes Vs. 16 Hours: How The Media Reports Delay​

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1383010/Osama-Bin-Laden-dead-Obama-took-16-hours-make-mind.html​

George Bush was relentlessly mocked for waiting seven minutes (actually waiting for his security detail to ready the exit and for his vehicle to be readied) before leaving the school he was visiting. He calmly finished reading My Pet Goat for the kids before going to his now-ready helicopter.

On the other hand, after Obama was told (most likely for the fifteenth time) that the CIA was really, really, really quite confident that Osama bin Ladin was at that compound in Abbottabad, he decided he needed to sleep on it.

Sixteen hours later (hours during which Osama might have fled-- bear in mind, his courier's name had just been outed by WikiLeaks), he made up his mind.

How does the media report this? Well, relying upon those in Obama's inner circle (that is to say, his political flunkies and spinners), we're told this:

"But the next morning after 16 hours, Obama summoned four top aides to the White House Diplomatic Room. Before they could speak, the president put his fist on the table and declared 'It's a go'."

...And the end run is a actual "mission accomplished," so who gives a sh*t?

Are you satisfied that OBL is dead or not?

Yeah? Half of the democratic members of congress and senate at the time still believe the same. Your liberal heroes no more I presume?

Yes, thanks to the legacy of Bush and Cheny.

If you study Saul Alinsky and his 'Rules for Radicals' and how the hate Bush campaign was waged, you will get some valuable insight into how the progressive mind works.

According to this, Obama had DNA confirmation that he was dead prior to announcing.

Either way, no body is needed, just a tissue sample.

I love how the right wingers are now taking credit for what happened two years later because of what Bush/Cheney supposedly did 10 years earlier (even though Cheney does not know for a fact that he did anything) but when someone on the left wing says that things done by Bush are relevant to what is going on now in regards to everything else that is going on, that some how is not true. How exactly does that work?

Bush closed the CIA unit tasked for hunting down Bin Ladin in 2005 (even though Bush pledged to hunt down Bin Ladin no mater how long it took) and as early as the first part of 2002 he said that he was not concerned about where or if OBL was hiding.

According to the current reports, when Obama walked in the door, he told the spooks to find the SOB and they did. Did Bush/Cheney have something to do with it? Yes they did. Just as they had something to do with the financial cluster screw up we are in now. It's not like there is a reset button when the new POTUS walks in the door.

Young liberals showing their intelligence. This is why public education indoctrination is so pathetic.

Who is Osama bin Laden??

Best commenter:
Don't blame the teenagers, blame the generation(s) before them that made it cool to be uninformed.

 

[dapoes]

If we redefine the killing of Osama bin Laden as a heartless murder/violation of international law, can we give Bush the leadership credit then?

 

[delldude]

What is more likely. Them getting their hands on a nuke but waiting for the right "time" to detonate it which runs the very real risk of it being discovered? Or detonating it as soon as they get their hands on it?

You are aware that the 9-11 gig was a go from somewhere in the mid nineties?
