Osama bin Laden is dead

[wombat2u2004]

Bush had his chance and he didn't get him.

Nah uh. Bush had nothing to do with "not getting him". Bush was constantly on the back of the CIA to bring home the bacon, right up until his term finished. The CIA never came good at that time.

SPEED to hell, you piece of garbage!!!! (I'd say God Speed but that would be disrespectful to our Lord)

Do I think they should post pictures of his dead, mutilated body????Hell yeah!!! We need closure. Now let's bring out men and women home safely.

Don't be like that Donna, it's not nice.
He really did value life you know. As evidenced by the fact that he tried to hide behind one of his wives.

Now let's be fair - something that lowlife knew nothing about tho.

I heard it reported that it was his wife that took it upon herself to step in front of him to try to shield him. Who really knows tho, besides the ones that were in that room......

Saying he was killed earlier, US has his body and has done DNA testing.
Wonder what we had to compare to for that test?

OBL was on the Jerry Springer show earlier this year when on of his wives accused him of cheating. He gave the DNA sample then.

While not a huge fan of politics? I find the 'blame game' as to who should get credit/no credit for OBL's demise to be rather entertaining. Apparently the pundits have assured that this is a huge 'win' for BO and makes him a shoo in for the presidency in '12.

Hog poop.

While I do care about that son of a gun (OBL) getting his proper due? what about the jobless rate in the country? Government spending? Budget woes and all the OTHER problems here in the country? I think that after the Ding Dong Osama's Dead high wears off, the political landscape and the general unease of the population regarding the WHOLE political/economic will go back to being what it was before May 1.

Hmmmm...I heard he actually stepped behind wife number.....errr....not sure, but it must be somewhere between 1 and 20.
That's what I heard and I'm sticking to it.

It has been decided not to release the pictures of Osama's body.
I am so glad. I think this is a wise decision. As Obama said, "no good
would come of it".

I think this is a wise decision, too. Potentially more harm might have come from it.

I heard on news radio that bin Laden's sister had been treated for cancer in the U.S. and the government was able to get a sample of her brain tissue for DNA comparison.

Growing up with the threat of Communism & Nikita Kruschev threatening to bury us was a very real thing back in the 1950's & 1960's with the cold war is what they called it. If was a relief when the Berlin Wall finally fell. That is what I got to grow up with at the time the threat of Nuclear bombs & the threat of Nuclear War.

I can see why youth & adults celebrated the death of bin laden. It is a weight off of their shoulders. A good 23 years of al Qaeda terrorizing the world has been enough.

Do you really think it's over and done with??? IMO - not a chance. Just because one man has been eliminated, doesn't eliminate the problem.

Well it is a darn good start! You can run but you can not hide because eventually you will get caught up with.

We can only hope that any other Binny's out there will think twice before they act.

You can cut off the head of the snake, but it will live - for a while anyway. There are many more of his wannabe honchos out there, ready and willing to carry on in his name and for his "cause". And they will act, as they have no regard for life - even their own. I think it will be a long time before they can be stopped.

Bush didnt have a chance, he was out of office while they where still gathering intel. Bush also would not have taken credit for a successful operation and would have kept the specifics from the public for the safety of the military members and their families.

Obama is putting his ego ahead of the safety of others.

You're kidding, right? Mr. Mission Accomplished televised from an aircraft carrier? He "took credit" for finishing a war that still isn't even finished today!

This is what scares me. I wonder if al Qaida will ever be completely stopped.

I also heard that the government of Pakistan was not notified in advance that this would be taking place and some people who live in the area felt that the U.S. forces involved should not have done what they did in a country that was not their own.
