Bin Laden is dead.

At least that is what the twitter world and NY times is saying. Prez Obama is supposed to be making a statement in a minute. About damn time if its true.

Everything is better on the rocks.

If confirmed, he'll coast through his re-election.

It's interesting what happens when the effort was shifted away from Iraq and back to the region and person that started this whole mess.

F pakistan. I couldn't be happier that the US is behind his death. This doesn't mean everything is all better, I'm just satisfied that an American bullet went through his head. He earned it.

So, can we get out of Afghanistan now?

Political leaning aside, this is a great day. This is how we should deal with future issues. Screw a 10-year war, send in the best of the best. End of story.

Well done Seals!

My wife thinks they probably shot him out of a torpedo tube. She's been hanging with me too much lately.

Since the body they shot in the eye is a 6ft 4 inch body- much taller that the typical A-rab, the identification should be easier. But I would like to see some evidence.

They said no internet but the Seals supposedly got some computer hard drives out of there.

Also Video was taken- that would get a few You Tube hits.

"Bin Laden's body was later buried at sea, an official said. Many Muslims adhere to the belief that bodies should be buried within one day.

The official did not release additional details about the burial, but said it was handled in keeping with Muslim customs. "

"A senior national security official told CNN that officials had multiple confirmations that the body was bin Laden's, saying they had the "ability to run images of the body and the face.""

I would hope they cut a fingertip off or something. Otherwise I think many will call BS on this..Roswell...JFK II

There is no Seal Team Six!

It was reported they gave him a double tap for good measure.

Despite being unpopular Obama gets to puff his chest out on this one since the operation was completed during his term. A lot of Americans have been waiting for this day.

Can you imagine the guy that got to pull the trigger and take him out.....that had to feel good.


I would also invest in the Reynolds corporation......there's going to be a boost in reynolds wrap sales from the Tin Foil hats over this....
