Bin Laden is dead, official

Also, they should have taken at least one prisoner for intel. The women should have been taken into custody too. Even if they are clueless, they could say how long UBL has been there, who the runners were, did they have visitors from Pak. gov't, where they were before, etc. These things would be worth knowing. They should have kept the news about the hard drives under wraps. I can't believe there were no weapons in the house; they might have been taken away. It sounds like UBL was very complacent, doesn't it?

I don't know if the article about Panetta is true or not, but alas, it sounds plausible. There will be some interesting books coming out about this in time.

Books, just wait for the next video games. They've made a fortune off these wars, nothing like new material. We'll all be shooting Osama by fall.

You could have called him any code name you like and someone would bitch!

If you said GayLord down?
The Gays would bitch!

If you said BlackLord down?
The Blacks would bitch!

Let them bitch I say!
If that is all they have to cry about?
They are not looking at things right and just bitching for attention.

And of course the Media will do several hours of nonsense covering the Cry Babies.

They should have made an airtight, carefully crafted statement after any after action reports, the first time around. Now their (our) integrity is compromised by the backpeddeling and correcting. So now, nobody will believe a damn thing they say.

Mr Panetta also revealed that the US Navy Seals made the final decision to kill bin Laden rather than the president.

Classic- Obama admin throws yet another group under the bus, this time seals.

Now I don't feel so bad about posting all that birther nonsense. Controversy seems to follow Barry no matter where/what he does. I kinda wonder if he really does have our launch codes, or does 'big Joe'.

Geez. Leave it to Obama to extract defeat from the jaws of victory, without losing a super-secret helicopter.

Just think, if they had codenamed him "Crybaby", the whole world would erupt

There's nothing Super Secret about it.
Those silent Black Choppers have been around for years now.

I think the average American voter isn't going to care about the minute details of who authorized what, what helmet cam was functioning or not, etc. etc. They're going to care that the son of a bitch is dead, and it doesn't matter how it was done. Just my opinion of course.

Would have been really cool if they called him...



What for it!.....................



SUBSIM!!

My cynical theory at this point is that Obama will keep to his high road of not releasing the photos, and yet they'll be somehow leaked anyway. He has moral superiority cake and eats it too.

Probably closer to truth than anything I've read in the news all day.

Leaked? Nah, I'll bet there are a dozen Freedom of Information Act applications in the mail already.

Its also used IRL. Tango means "Target". The Brits at one time used the term "X-Ray" but switched to "Tango" at some point.

I don't know how true any of this is but if so it's downright scary:

In the space of a day this changed from Patriot Games to Clear and Present Danger.
