I think the real question is who much MORE offensive would the pictures be other than the killing itself? I am pretty sure that the shooting of UBL is what offends the most.

That's what I meant to say indeed. :)

If that were real instead of the real speech, his approval would be twice what it is now

Last week, President Obama significantly out-Bushed Bush: We killed Osama Bin Laden. Judging by their top priority for most of the last decade, it would seem that most Republicans will now vote for Obama in 2012. Sure, Bush doubled the size of government and the debt. Big deal---8212;we were fighting a War on Terror. Sure, it---8217;s true that Obama is now tripling the size of government and our debt. But so what---8212;President Obama just killed the world---8217;s top terrorist! ---8220;Obama kept us safe---8221; might even be enough to carry the president through the next election.

I really liked this "What now?" analysis from American Conservative. Not a Pat Buchanan fan, but he's got some good writers over there.

Did you hear?
The CIA was living next door to bin ladens compound for two months and they say ??? that they weren't sure, but they listened and watched for him.

No voice was ever heard from him or clear picture of his face was obtained.

All they had was that a tall man was walking around and exercising, plus the carrier made two trips at the same time bin Ladens messages to the world were released.

I hope and pray that the followers of OBL take the money and run in fact we should give the $25 million dollars reward to them to stop fighting us ...

probably wouldn't work just like my other plan to drop 10,000 cell phones off to them by air.

When they call the only number avaiable for being able to use the cell phone they hear, "Hey! Whats your problem anyway? Can't we just sit down and talk about this"

I read that his wife is telling the pakis he barely left the room he was in, much less the house.

While the islamist press calls him a "lion" he seems to have been a cowed man, hiding in a bedroom. Guess he liked to "lead from the rear."

I'm actually thrilled to hear he spent the last 5 years literally in the same room he was killed in according to his wife. Without leaving.

I dearly hope this is true. It meant he was a broken man. Think about it, so afraid that you have a medium sized house, and you are afraid to leave a room in the middle.

He very much ended up like Saddam in the spider hole.

Also, I read that he stuck his head into the hall, and was fired at (shot missed). Nice to know he probably pissed himself in the moments before he was put down.

A couple weeks ago it would have been a funny joke to say that if Obama killed bin Laden, the right would still find something to complain about. And now it's happened. People are loons.

That Taiban offer was viewed by everyone at the time as just a stalling tactic. They were basically saying that if we stopped the bombing they would allow us to try and convince them that bin Laden was guilty enough to justify them handing him over. How likely do you think that was going to be?

As for your gems you'll also note that at the time Bush made them we didn't know where bin Laden was, or whether he was even still alive. What was Bush supposed to say? "I can think of nothing else?" A year ago it seems to me that Obama wasn't saying much at all about capturing bin Laden.

The fact is that bin Ladens hide wouldn't be nailed to Obamas door right now without George Bush so you Liberals are gonna have to learn to deal with it.

Strange how there's no consistency here. Obama inherits the worst recession in decades and the right wingers immediately start screeching about how he needs to stop blaming Bush. But now two and a half years into his presidency the majority of the credit for taking down Osama is due to a guy who hasn't cared about him for 9 years?

You can't have it both ways.
