I wonder if Obama is also in charge of his death certificate? USA! USA! USA!
-
Outstanding! I would love to buy the man who pulled the trigger a beer!
-
I wish I had killed him myself.
If there is a hell he is busting it wide open. And boy will he be surprised.
He is only one. Kill them all.

Good.
Was hoping it wasn't going to be renal failure. Way too good for him.

I think we should find the man responsible and give him 72 virgins.

9+ years too late, but good riddance!!!

Obama's speech - YAWN.
Would have been much better if it was just this:

Obama absolutely RUINED the moment.
We aren't at war with Islam! Why? Because he's one of them. We are at war with Islam. Have been for 600 years.
What a grandstanding piece of shit. "I authorized." "I determined" I, I, I, I, I, I.
It's days like today that I miss Ronald Reagan most.

It really was terrible.
Sadly, I'm used to hearing him selfishly take credit for everything positive and place blame on others for everything negative.
And that pissed me off about the Islam shit. I'm not saying we should declare war on Islam, but it was totally unnecessary to include that in the speech.
-
The #2 guy in charge (whomever it is), will take Osama's place. Unless they give up, nothing changes as far as the war on terrorism goes. I'm glad that we finally got him, but we'd better not let our guards down.

Terrorist Alert has been placed.

We all have friends, or know people that have lost individuals trying to find this fuck. Trying to fight the wars we're waging. I'll raise a glass to those who gave all (and those still in a path before them that might have the same fate) while defending all of us against motherfuckers like that.
Like Kaos said though, he's only one. They ALL need to die.

I love how he took credit it for it, as if he were out in the field gathering the intel, and he was the one that took the shot.

For real. Now the news is "how this is a boost for Obama". A boost, seriously?! This is aint got shit to do with Obama. Hell, it was crazy ass Bush that built the foundation on the whole Osama hunt.
Anyway, big props to the baddest military and special forces on the planet. Take that biatches!
-
Why does "buried at sea in accordance with Islamic tradition" bother me?
Why should we give a fiddling fuck about his Islamic tradition? Why is Obama even aware of Islamic tradition?
Without a bullet-riddled body and visual confirmation, who's going to buy the story?
Throwing the fuck off the side of a boat just opens the door for him to be deified by the prehistoric fucksticks who followed him.
This was an instance where they needed to show his ugly ass death mask.
Obama -- bowing and scraping to every culture but American -- fucked this up too.
To be honest, I was glad they'd killed him at first. But as I watch that miserable excuse for a president try to make it about his own political advantage... I don't know.
-
One thing I like about it is without an actual burial site, his crazy assed followers have nowhere to pay homage to.

Okay, what exactly does the bullet to Osamabamabalama's brain mean? Other than the fact that he's...well...dead. Was he more of a figure head or was he really that much in control? I always had my doubts about the latter because how much can you really have your hands on things if you're tucked away at some remote compound for years at a time? I say that because it would seem a fairly easy thing to pinpoint someone's location....even in the hills of Afghanistan if he were communicating with an entire organization like Al Quaeda (sp?) or the Talleyban or whoever he's supposed to be the head cheese for.
Does this really strike a blow....and I hope it basically castrates the whole lot of em'....or is some other Mujibar Akhmed Alamabad ready to step in. Or the better question...is this just going to piss them off and we need to duck?
And the most important question....why did they dump his body in the ocean? Seriously, am I missing something here?

Point of parliamentary procedure!
It strikes a blow...I liken it to assassinating a president. Yes someone is going to step in and take over, but it is a major deal. He was their figure head, and the talk was that it was never going to happen. How much was he involved still? I have no idea, he could have been the MAN or he might have been Bobby Bowden. I would suspect, he was still a major player.
It also shows that not only did we do what we set out to do, but that if you fuck with us, we will hunt you down. I don't know if these types of guys get scared at all, I doubt they fear dying, but it still sends a message!
Also the way we did is a "HUGE" fucking deal. I am sure our local armed forces members could expand. I do give Obama props for signing the paper,and sending the SEALs rather than a guided missile.
Is terrorism gone...not by any stretch of the imagination, but we are one less leader today...and that is GREAT!
-
Great point. However, the first thing that came to mind when I heard that is cover up...something's not right here. Have no idea what and maybe I just have no clue what the real reason is for that. It's like BANG...you're dead...dump his ass in the ocean. Probably the most infamous, despicable, most wanted individual on earth and they dispose of the body in a heartbeat.
Obviously, this is a decision made long beforehand?

Curse you quote function. Curse you I say

Yes...but they HAD the body this time. I know we would never stoop to this level but it seems you'd want to hang that biatch up in the town square. Show the world what happens when you F with the U.S. of A. etc. With this, it's like...."We got him...dumped the body...move along, nothing to see here." Literally, nothing to see here.
-
l but it seems you'd want to hang that biatch up in the town square.
I'm down with this but hey I'm an asshole. They don't seem to mind using their own folks as pinatas so why can't we?
-
I told the wife last night that Obama should have walked out for his speech, with Bin Laden's bloody head on a pike. If he would have done that, I would have straight up voted for him.
-
BTW I heard they dumped his body in the ocean because of the smell.
-

Seriously. Not saying there was any kind of conspiracy. It seemed odd to handle it that way and I feel somehow deprived of some sick, dimented joy in seeing his bullet-ridden body. Is that weird?
And again, KUDOS to all you military people who actually have the stones and skill to pull something off like this. While these guys were dropping from choppers, engaging in a firefight and taking out the most evil man on the planet in the middle of nowhere....I was drinking wine and fine burrbinz in Destin, Florida. Pretty cool that I have that opportunity.
-
Crucify him in the middle of Washington?
I, too, am one that is not on board with making him shark food.
But...
Jesus was crucified over 2000 years ago. You hang this miserable bastard up in the square and you give them a chance to make him an even greater martyr.
They should have taken photos, done a video, something. And then shown him being tossed overboard like a rag doll. Too bad Roy Scheider and Robert Shaw are dead. They could have chummed for a couple of hours to draw in the bigger sharks.
BTW? My determination to vote against Obama was reinforced by his grandstanding last night. He is the most narcissistic bastard I've ever seen.
And on another note? Our people celebrating in the streets reminds me too much of the street rallies I see Muslims do. Chanting and cheering and flag burning... oh well.

The US officials are saying that no country wanted to except his body and give him a burial mainly because of what Sani said. So, his burial site became the Arabian.

Obama watched with popcorn.
President Obama watched live video of the raid on Bin Laden's compound yesterday, a source tells us.
In operations like this, our source says, soldiers and pilots often carry helmet cameras, and screens in situation rooms can carry live images from all of them.
We doubt the US will release video or photos of the Bin Laden raid, but in this age of Wikileaks, anything's possible.

Should have buried him here, let’s say out in the desert. And shoot every motherfucker that goes to see it. Don’t have to hunt them down when they’re coming to you.

Hell yeah.
Or even bury his ass in the center of a pig farm. You know they will come close but no too close. From that point, Snipers could take around the clock positions for target practice.

"Allah Damnit, Ak..." Splat
WASHINGTON (AP) - At a briefing for reporters at the Pentagon, a senior intelligence official said that before the burial the U.S. used multiple means to positively identify Osama bin Laden.
The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity under ground rules set by the Pentagon, said a woman believed to be bin Laden's wife identified him by name during the U.S. raid that killed him in Pakistan.

So... within an hour of waxing his ass, Obama has called every single country in the world and said "Hey, we whacked this Obama.. Osama.. guy and were wondering if you had a cemetery that could hold his moldy ass? What? No? Okay thanks, Allahu Akbar... Uh.... see ya later, litigator!"
And then he's called the ship and told the captain to spray some Axe body spray (scented oil) on him, wrap him up in a bedsheet and dump him in the ocean.
Sorry. I'm calling horseshit. It doesn't make sense to me.
Why did we have to adhere to Muslim tradition? Are we a Muslim nation? Would they have adhered to Christian tradition if they'd captured Obama... oh, wait, bad example.... If they'd captured GW Bush? No.
Throwing him in the ocean is a bad move. Fuck Islamic tradition.
We are at war with Islam. Been at war with Islam since the 1400s.

White House Officials Debate Releasing Photographs of Bin Laden’s Corpse
May 02, 2011 10:55 AM
The Obama administration has photographs of Osama bin Laden’s dead body and officials are debating what to do with them and whether they should be released to the public, officials tell ABC News.
“There’s no doubt it’s him,†says a US official who has seen the pictures and also reminds us that OBL was 6’4â€.
The argument for releasing them: to ensure that the public knows and can appreciate that he's dead. There is of course skepticism throughout the world that the US government claim that it killed bin Laden is true.
The argument against releasing the pictures: they’re gruesome. He has a massive head wound above his left eye where he took bullet, with brains and blood visible.
In July 2003, the US government released photographs of Saddam Hussein’s dead sons Uday and Qusay Hussain but not until after they’d been touched up by a mortician, making them look not quite real.
For more on the raid that killed bin Laden, see my Good Morning America report:
I say, lets see the damn photos.

Hell no they wouldn't have given two shits about Christian tradition. Thats easily proven by the countless Christians taped being beheaded for nothing more than being Christian. Honestly I have no clue as to why the US went to such great extent but again Sani brings up a good point about not giving those rag heads a martyrdom site for Osama Be Noddin. Now they will have to sail their little shit can fishing boats out in the middle of the waters for than kind of shit.

Capturing bin Laden 'would unleash hell'
00:37 AEST Tue Apr 26 20116 days 13 hours 1 minute ago
The mastermind of the 9/11 attacks warned that al-Qaeda has hidden a nuclear bomb in Europe which will unleash a "nuclear hellstorm" if Osama bin Laden is captured, leaked files revealed.
The terror group also planned to make a 9/11 style attack on London's Heathrow airport by crashing a hijacked airliner into one of the terminals, the files showed.
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed told Guantanamo Bay interrogators the terror group would detonate the nuclear device if the al-Qaeda chief was captured or killed, according to the classified files released by the WikiLeaks website.
Sheikh Mohammed, the self-professed mastermind of the September 11, 2001 attacks on the United States, has been held at Guantanamo since 2006 and is to be tried in a military court at the US naval base on Cuba over the attacks.
His nuclear threat was revealed in Britain's Daily Telegraph newspaper, one of several media outlets which have published the classified assessments of detainees at Guantanamo.
The German weekly Der Spiegel, also citing WikiLeaks, said that Sheikh Mohammed had told his interrogators he had set up two cells for the purpose of attacking Heathrow in 2002.
The aim was to seize control of an airliner shortly after take-off from Heathrow, one of the world's busiest airports, turn it around and crash it into one of the four terminals.
Sheikh Mohammed said one cell had been formed with the aim of taking flying lessons in Kenya, while the other had been tasked with recruiting participants.
He said the plot had been discussed several times at the highest level of al-Qaeda. One component had involved the infiltration of ground staff at the airport, according to Der Spiegel.
Another attack given the green light in late 2001 would have targeted "the tallest buildings in California" with hijacked airliners, Der Spiegel reported.
The attackers would have gained access to the airliner cockpits by setting off small bombs hidden in their shoes, it said.
Sheikh Mohammed, captured in 2003 in Pakistan, also claims to have personally beheaded US journalist Daniel Pearl in 2002 with his "blessed right hand" and to have helped in the 1993 World Trade Centre bombing that killed six people.
Der Spiegel noted that his "confessions" should have be treated with caution as they could have been extracted through torture. Sheikh Mohammed is known to have undergone the method known as "waterboarding".
Former US president George W. Bush claimed in his memoirs published last year that using the interrogation technique - which simulates drowning - helped prevent planned attacks on Heathrow and London's Canary Wharf business district.
He also told the London Times newspaper in November that it was "damn right" that he had authorised use of the method on Sheikh Mohammed

I didn't understand the "proper burial" either at first. No need to throw fuel on a raging fire. It won't help relations, but there's no need to throw fuel on an already raging fire. Besides we're better than them.
They have plenty of proof of his death, and enough will be released to satisfy Americans, and make the point to the terrorists. But, yes, they do need to release it pretty soon.
Fuck BO...we got this piece of shit, and now he'll become shark shit, crab shit, etc., and no crazed religious zealots will have a body or grave to make a shrine to.

A couple of things.
Why deserve an 'atta boy'? Because he is the current commander in chief. He refocused the US efforts to Afghanistan & Pakistan, instead of dicking around in Iraq. He authorized the attack on Bin Laden's compound.
I mean, I'd buy the guy that pulled the trigger a beer first, but I wouldn't follow it with a kick to Obama's face.
Can we not, as a country, just fucking be happy together for once? Do we have to divide the country with this type of petty bullshit?
To me, this country is a complete reverse of where it was shortly after Septemeber 11th. Right wingers are the new Cindy Shehans. You hate your commander in chief so much that absolutely nothing they do deserves anything but contempt. To me, you're no patriot if you hate the President of the United States so much that you can't just celebrate shit like this. I said it to liberals when they were less than overjoyed when Saddam Hussein was killed. Now it's conservatives that would rather see America fail than to give the President any credit for anything positive.
This is the same guy that many of you were saying was going to be such a foreign affairs pussy that surely we were going to have the Taliban headquartered here in the US. Fuck that. He just finished what we never could under Bush. Take out Public Enemy #1. The man most responsible for 9/11. That deserves praise.
As for being pissed that his body was disposed of within 24 hours because it adhered to Muslim standards, first of all, they're not happy with the fact that he was buried at sea, and secondly, while it's cute to say we should have wrapped him in bacon and fed him to pigs, that is not the message we want to send. This is taking care of business. Anything more flagrant would be no better than Al Queda themselves. And we're an actual country, not a terrorist organization. If that's the standard you want to be held to, join the American equivalent, the Westboro Baptist Church.

I mean, I'd buy the guy that pulled the trigger a beer first, but I wouldn't follow it with a kick to Obama's face.
Can we not, as a country, just fucking be happy together for once? Do we have to divide the country with this type of petty bullshit?
To me, this country is a complete reverse of where it was shortly after Septemeber 11th. Right wingers are the new Cindy Shehans. You hate your commander in chief so much that absolutely nothing they do deserves anything but contempt. To me, you're no patriot if you hate the President of the United States so much that you can't just celebrate shit like this. I said it to liberals when they were less than overjoyed when Saddam Hussein was killed. Now it's conservatives that would rather see America fail than to give the President any credit for anything positive.
This is the same guy that many of you were saying was going to be such a foreign affairs pussy that surely we were going to have the Taliban headquartered here in the US. Fuck that. He just finished what we never could under Bush. Take out Public Enemy #1. The man most responsible for 9/11. That deserves praise.
As for being pissed that his body was disposed of within 24 hours because it adhered to Muslim standards, first of all, they're not happy with the fact that he was buried at sea, and secondly, while it's cute to say we should have wrapped him in bacon and fed him to pigs, that is not the message we want to send. This is taking care of business. Anything more flagrant would be no better than Al Queda themselves. And we're an actual country, not a terrorist organization. If that's the standard you want to be held to, join the American equivalent, the Westboro Baptist Church.

BTW, I just watched GWB's speech from September 11.
People don't give him enough credit. Perfect tone, a fantastic address. Brought tears to my eyes.
What Obama did Monday? A narcissistic abomination.
I'm sorry, Chizzy, it was what it was. It is what it is. Chairman Maobama had an opportunity to hit one out of the park. He failed.

I understand the desire to put partisanship aside and come together during this moment, but I feel like that's exactly what Obama didn't do. "Look what I helped accomplished." "Look what happened under my watch."
I heard the pronoun "I" more in his speech than "We" and "Our."
And I'm no right winger. I'm no left winger. I don't even like to be called a moderate or an independent since those seem to have meanings beyond their definition.
I'm simply commenting on what I heard and saw the evening of a great American military success story.

Really need to actually listen to it again. There were more "We" in that speech than "I". People hear what their hearts want them to hear. Also, who fuckin' cares if Pres. Obama knocked outta the park with his speech...the message of the speech was what people should've been listening to. Obama's not a actor. Again, listen to the speech. Listen to the message. Post all of the "I" usage. Former Pres. GWB started the fight, Pres. Obama finished it.
Wait....his tie was slightly crooked. BOOOOO!!!!!!! We want a Leader Not a Loser!!! BOOOOOOO!!!!

I heard what was there, Prowler. There was no we. There was a shit-ton of I, though.
I care if he did the speech right. It was a significant opportunity to send a message to the world. Instead, it was framed as a political opportunity for the Narcissist in Chief.
Even beyond the self-indulgent mugging for the camera, the worst of it was the "make no mistake, we are not at war with Islam" line. It was unnecessary.

I don't have ANY love for BO. I personally don't expect him to ever be "presidential". So last night was no surprise. That said, I don't think it's a big deal..."WE" did get that mother fucker.
I got no problem with the way Kaos is thinking either. Some folks NEVER gave GW any credit, and no matter what he said, he was made fun of, poked at, called stupid...EVERY FUCKING time. From some quarters he was shown NO respect.
So, BO gets some of the same. Tit for tat. I hate BO gets to claim it as his victory, but I'm glad we got the victory.

That was kind of my point. It drove me fucking nuts when the hippies were treasonous, and it pisses me off just the same that the conservatives are now. Maybe even a smidge more due to the hypocrisy of the so-called "patriots".

You are aware that there are Muslims in America, right?
Ones that pay taxes, love being Americans, and in no way wish any ill will upon their fellow Americans.
I'd be willing to bet you don't know one personally, so it's easy for you to make such a broad generalization.
I hate to be this blunt, but that type of thinking is purely ignorant. Sorry. We are/were at war with the Taliban. With Al Qaeda. With Hezbollah. With Terrorists. Not with the Islamic religion. To think that we are, or should be, is on the same hateful ignorant wavelength as those we are at war against.

Let the nitpicking begin:
Good evening. Tonight, I can report to the American people and to the world that the United States has conducted an operation that killed Osama bin Laden, the leader of al Qaeda, and a terrorist who’s responsible for the murder of thousands of innocent men, women, and children.
It was nearly 10 years ago that a bright September day was darkened by the worst attack on the American people in our history. The images of 9/11 are seared into our national memory -- hijacked planes cutting through a cloudless September sky; the Twin Towers collapsing to the ground; black smoke billowing up from the Pentagon; the wreckage of Flight 93 in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, where the actions of heroic citizens saved even more heartbreak and destruction.
And yet we know that the worst images are those that were unseen to the world. The empty seat at the dinner table. Children who were forced to grow up without their mother or their father. Parents who would never know the feeling of their child’s embrace. Nearly 3,000 citizens taken from us, leaving a gaping hole in our hearts.
On September 11, 2001, in our time of grief, the American people came together. We offered our neighbors a hand, and we offered the wounded our blood. We reaffirmed our ties to each other, and our love of community and country. On that day, no matter where we came from, what God we prayed to, or what race or ethnicity we were, we were united as one American family.
We were also united in our resolve to protect our nation and to bring those who committed this vicious attack to justice. We quickly learned that the 9/11 attacks were carried out by al Qaeda -- an organization headed by Osama bin Laden, which had openly declared war on the United States and was committed to killing innocents in our country and around the globe. And so we went to war against al Qaeda to protect our citizens, our friends, and our allies.
Over the last 10 years, thanks to the tireless and heroic work of our military and our counterterrorism professionals, we’ve made great strides in that effort. We’ve disrupted terrorist attacks and strengthened our homeland defense. In Afghanistan, we removed the Taliban government, which had given bin Laden and al Qaeda safe haven and support. And around the globe, we worked with our friends and allies to capture or kill scores of al Qaeda terrorists, including several who were a part of the 9/11 plot.
Yet Osama bin Laden avoided capture and escaped across the Afghan border into Pakistan. Meanwhile, al Qaeda continued to operate from along that border and operate through its affiliates across the world.
And so shortly after taking office, I directed Leon Panetta, the director of the CIA, to make the killing or capture of bin Laden the top priority of our war against al Qaeda, even as we continued our broader efforts to disrupt, dismantle, and defeat his network.
Then, last August, after years of painstaking work by our intelligence community, I was briefed on a possible lead to bin Laden. It was far from certain, and it took many months to run this thread to ground. I met repeatedly with my national security team as we developed more information about the possibility that we had located bin Laden hiding within a compound deep inside of Pakistan. And finally, last week, I determined that we had enough intelligence to take action, and authorized an operation to get Osama bin Laden and bring him to justice.
Today, at my direction, the United States launched a targeted operation against that compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan. A small team of Americans carried out the operation with extraordinary courage and capability. No Americans were harmed. They took care to avoid civilian casualties. After a firefight, they killed Osama bin Laden and took custody of his body.
For over two decades, bin Laden has been al Qaeda’s leader and symbol, and has continued to plot attacks against our country and our friends and allies. The death of bin Laden marks the most significant achievement to date in our nation’s effort to defeat al Qaeda.
Yet his death does not mark the end of our effort. There’s no doubt that al Qaeda will continue to pursue attacks against us. We must –- and we will -- remain vigilant at home and abroad.
As we do, we must also reaffirm that the United States is not –- and never will be -– at war with Islam. I’ve made clear, just as President Bush did shortly after 9/11, that our war is not against Islam. Bin Laden was not a Muslim leader; he was a mass murderer of Muslims. Indeed, al Qaeda has slaughtered scores of Muslims in many countries, including our own. So his demise should be welcomed by all who believe in peace and human dignity.
Over the years, I’ve repeatedly made clear that we would take action within Pakistan if we knew where bin Laden was. That is what we’ve done. But it’s important to note that our counterterrorism cooperation with Pakistan helped lead us to bin Laden and the compound where he was hiding. Indeed, bin Laden had declared war against Pakistan as well, and ordered attacks against the Pakistani people.
Tonight, I called President Zardari, and my team has also spoken with their Pakistani counterparts. They agree that this is a good and historic day for both of our nations. And going forward, it is essential that Pakistan continue to join us in the fight against al Qaeda and its affiliates.
The American people did not choose this fight. It came to our shores, and started with the senseless slaughter of our citizens. After nearly 10 years of service, struggle, and sacrifice, we know well the costs of war. These efforts weigh on me every time I, as Commander-in-Chief, have to sign a letter to a family that has lost a loved one, or look into the eyes of a service member who’s been gravely wounded.
So Americans understand the costs of war. Yet as a country, we will never tolerate our security being threatened, nor stand idly by when our people have been killed. We will be relentless in defense of our citizens and our friends and allies. We will be true to the values that make us who we are. And on nights like this one, we can say to those families who have lost loved ones to al Qaeda’s terror: Justice has been done.
Tonight, we give thanks to the countless intelligence and counterterrorism professionals who’ve worked tirelessly to achieve this outcome. The American people do not see their work, nor know their names. But tonight, they feel the satisfaction of their work and the result of their pursuit of justice.
We give thanks for the men who carried out this operation, for they exemplify the professionalism, patriotism, and unparalleled courage of those who serve our country. And they are part of a generation that has borne the heaviest share of the burden since that September day.
Finally, let me say to the families who lost loved ones on 9/11 that we have never forgotten your loss, nor wavered in our commitment to see that we do whatever it takes to prevent another attack on our shores.
And tonight, let us think back to the sense of unity that prevailed on 9/11. I know that it has, at times, frayed. Yet today’s achievement is a testament to the greatness of our country and the determination of the American people.
The cause of securing our country is not complete. But tonight, we are once again reminded that America can do whatever we set our mind to. That is the story of our history, whether it’s the pursuit of prosperity for our people, or the struggle for equality for all our citizens; our commitment to stand up for our values abroad, and our sacrifices to make the world a safer place.
Let us remember that we can do these things not just because of wealth or power, but because of who we are: one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
Thank you. May God bless you. And may God bless the United States of America.

I....I'm sorry....The Prowler guesses that some people would've rather heard Pres. Obama speak in third person. Again, not that many "I"s in his speech. The Prowler did hear a lot of "WE", "OUR", "US", "THEY" in it though.

Chiz.
Christians have been at war with Muslims since (and I was wrong on the timeframe before) the 1000s.
Don't be naive.
Please don't pull out the tired old "I bet you don't know any Muslims" argument. It's as trite and pointless as the "I bet you never played any football" argument.
Care to guess how many NFL coaches played in the NFL? Not that many.
No, I don't spend my weekends in mosques. I don't spend a lot of time in synagogues either.
You can think it's ignorant all you want, but I'm not an ignorant person. Hotheaded? Yeah. Can be. But not ignorant.
Sure there are some members of the Islamic faith who want peaceful co-existence. There are probably some Klansmen who want that, too. But as a general rule, peaceful co-existence isn't on the Muslim radar.
We aren't going to agree on this, so there's no point in continuing to discuss it here.
I think you are wrong and have a myopic/narrow view. You think I'm wrong, am painting with a broad brush and am ignorant.
I'm okay with that. We need both viewpoints.

Okay. Well the bolded parts are all it took. This is where it went off the rails and became an orgy of self-love. You can choose to see it or choose not to.

That's not how good coaches coach and it's not how good leaders lead.
How pissed off would you be, Prowler (et. al) if Gene Chizik had made the same speech in the aftermath of the win over Alabama this year?
I directed Gus Malzahn to unleash the offense and made scoring points in the second half our chief directive. I was briefed repeatedly by our assistant coaches as we attempted to determine the best course of action to overcome the 24-point deficit. I finally determined we had enough information to make an effective plan and this week I authorized the use of multiple down-the-field passes and a defense determined to stop the run and pressure Greg McElroy.
Today, at my direction, our players unleashed a second half from hell and completed an amazing comeback. After a firefight, they killed Big Al and took custody of his bloated body.
Think about that a minute. And tell me honestly. Is that how leaders lead? Would you accept that from Chizik?
Why, then, would you accept it from the Narcissist in Chief?

As a formal soldier of the greatest military on this planet, ever, I still feel obligated to show respect for my Commander and Chief. Listen, I'm not a Obama supporter but I have grown tired of the same old Republican bullshit. The death of this piece of shit Osama has nothing to fucking do with politics. Sure there will be those trying to make gains from this in a political sense but for me its about the greatest county in history saying don't fuck with me unless you want death knocking at your door. I am not gonna let politics fuck this is up for me, just like I'm not gonna let a rainy day get me depressed. This is bigger than politics, this is a nations healing ten years in the making. FUCK YOU AL WTFEVA, HHUUUAAAHH!
This is for New York, DC and the "Airline heros". Fuck you Bin Laden.

Glad he's dead, wish they hadn't thrown him over the side of the damn boat because that's going to leave "Elvis is alive" questions for decades, but... still glad the murdering fuck is dead. Wish I'd been the one to kill him. Hope he's enjoying his 72 virgins. Virgin men with 10 foot dicks.

My issue with the idiots dancing in the streets is that there will now be a Roh Tahd and a War Eagle in the next Al Quaida recruiting video. That was stupid and juvenile - yes, I know they are college kids but Fox and other networks are allegedly run by grownups that did not have to show that, much less that moron Geraldo egging them on. This was a monumental day, but show a little gravitas - this was not "Ding Dong, the witch is dead", you dancing munchkins. You looked just like those fuckers who danced in the streets on 9-11, less the shooting guns in the air, and the ululations.
Since no one else did this, I will **EDIT, Kaos did too... delayed in posting...**
Chizad, there is NO WAY you can say that this was not the most one-sided statement EVER to come out of a president in relation to a military action:
And so shortly after taking office, I directed Leon Panetta, the director of the CIA, to make the killing or capture of bin Laden the top priority of our war against al Qaeda. I guess the CIA/NSA/CTG just closed down after Bush left office and Obama had to crank them back up again? Seriously? All he had to do was REAFFIRM what GWB had already set into play - I mean, OBL was already #1 on the Most Wanted List. How can Obama take credit for this?
Then, last August, after years of painstaking work by our intelligence community, I was briefed on a possible lead to bin Laden. It was far from certain, and it took many months to run this thread to ground. I met repeatedly with my national security team as we developed more information about the possibility that we had located bin Laden hiding within a compound deep inside of Pakistan. And finally, last week, I determined that we had enough intelligence to take action, and authorized an operation to get Osama bin Laden and bring him to justice. Once again, HE determined this? Were his boots on the ground? Was he sifting intelligence for days and weeks on end? Or was he still hanging on to his election rhetoric criticizing the CIA and other counter-terrorism organizations for procuring the information in distasteful ways? Because, yeah, we got this info from Khalid Sheik Muhammad - and I am sure he did not spill it voluntarily. But it paid off, didn't it???
Unbelivable. Yes, he gave the final order to go ahead and take the bastard out. Like he had a choice??!?!? If it had leaked out that he had a chance to get OBL and didn't take it, he would be DONE. I would hazzard a guess that some of the delay in moving on the intel was so they could weigh the political pros and cons. His liberal base is already pissed off at him for not pulling out of Afghanistan - now he is violating Pakistani territory to pull this off. We are supposed to be all touchy feely One World One Love, baby...
I am glad "HE" did it :rolleyes:, but color me shocked and surprised that he had the balls to do it. HIllary probably pushed him into it - her balls are the biggest in the Administration.
Dear heavens, I am praising HIllary Clinton...

First thing from your quote, there are a couple of typos I gotta go fix. Secondly, I don't want anyone to think I am questioning their fire for this country. In your argument, I heard Obama make his statements and my first thought was he was gonna do exactly what he did and use for some kind of political gain. Anyone who thinks this is not what he did is being blinded. My point is that my indignation for this motherfucker being shot in the fucking head goes far above and beyond ant of these cocksucking politicians can claim fame to.

Here's a thought from a local Houston blogger:
How do we reconcile our president (a) holding a press conference to claim credit for killing Osama bin Laden, while at the very same time (b) maintaining a policy against targeting Mumar Kadafi?
-
Yes, The Commander in Chief does give the final order/go ahead in this and other instances. So, he can say I all he wants to because it's proper English. Also, if he would've "brought it home", there would've been people that would've had a problem with that too. It's the Cam Newton Effect.

I don't like Obama, but I'm also not one of the ones that always looks for something negative in anything he says, or anything like that. However, I also did not appreciate his tone for some of the speech. I didn't like how much he involved his actions in the speech, and how it seemed like the mentioning of our armed forces was but a footnote to the success of the mission. Yes, we know that as Commander in Chief, you made some decisions to make this happen. That's something that is understood that goes without saying. So let our armed forces have this one.

A couple of things.
Why deserve an 'atta boy'? Because he is the current commander in chief. He refocused the US efforts to Afghanistan & Pakistan, instead of tooling around in Iraq. He authorized the attack on Bin Laden's compound.
I mean, I'd buy the guy that pulled the trigger a beer first, but I wouldn't follow it with a kick to Obama's face.
Can we not, as a country, just effing be happy together for once? Do we have to divide the country with this type of petty bullpoop?
Take it easy there, Sweatpea. I think that everyone is thrilled that the Obama authorized the attack and that we managed to kill Bin Laden under Obama's watch. Nobody is questioning that. Congratulations to everyone, including the President. To hell with a beer, I'll buy these guys a bottle of McAllan 25 year Scotch.
To me, this country is a complete reverse of where it was shortly after Septemeber 11th. Right wingers are the new Cindy Shehans. You hate your commander in chief so much that absolutely nothing they do deserves anything but contempt. To me, you're no patriot if you hate the President of the United States so much that you can't just celebrate poop like this. I said it to liberals when they were less than overjoyed when Saddam Hussein was killed. Now it's conservatives that would rather see America fail than to give the President any credit for anything positive.
After all of the horse squeeze rhetoric spewed by the Left campaigning against GWB's policies, you don't "feel" that we're playing nice when we take a jab at the President for continuing the policies that he vowed so vehemently to change? Cindy Shehans??? No patriotic American wants to see the country fail. Yes, we do want Barry to fail, but Barry's failures to implement his espoused values and policies is a success for America. He continued most of GWB's policies in the War on Terror, and we found and killed Bin Laden. Excellent job!
This is the same guy that many of you were saying was going to be such a foreign affairs pussy that surely we were going to have the Taliban headquartered here in the US. eff that. He just finished what we never could under Bush. Take out Public Enemy #1. The man most responsible for 9/11. That deserves praise.
I'm certain that everyone who is reasonable praised him, but does that mean we cannot continue to be critical? I mean seriously; if this guy implemented the policies on which he campaigned, this would not have occurred. Then, he has the balls to give a speech virtually praising himself... I, I, I, I... He's likely to have a helluva time winning back his antiwar constituents with that, but again, congratulations to him.

If that's the standard you want to be held to, join the American equivalent, the Westboro Baptist Church.
If you can't handle a little playful banter about a murdering SOB who deserves no respect by anyone, go play on the Advocate's forum where you can rub cocks and toss salad with your like-minded brothers. Most of us aren't serious, so your holier-than-thou judgement is naive and unnecessary.

How about this?
After Obama had signed off on the operation, CIA Director Leon Panetta gave the official order around midday Sunday for the operation to commence, the Times reported.
"We have rid the world of the most infamous terrorist of our time," Panetta said in a statement Monday. "We gave President Obama and his team accurate, relevant, timely intelligence -- providing the information and insight they needed at key points as this mission developed."
But... but... but... I thought Obama made this decision all by his lonesome? And that the CIA was de debil??? Like RWS says, let the CIA and the military have the credit they deserve.

A couple of things.
Why deserve an 'atta boy'? Because he is the current commander in chief. He refocused the US efforts to Afghanistan & Pakistan, instead of dicking around in Iraq. He authorized the attack on Bin Laden's compound.
Oh, he refocused our efforts overseas. Because Bush said "fuck it, we're not hunting Bin Laden anymore", right? Even though the lead that ultimately led us to OBL was generated in the Bush era by all those mean ol' tactics authorized by the Bush administration at Gitmo. The same Gitmo that Obama pledged to close. Not saying this is all thanks to the Bush administration. That would be just as silly as saying Obama himself is responsible for killing OBL. Just saying, apparently the Bush administration was actively doing something.

"He's speakin' all...Uh...proper and junk."
"Yeah, he's talkin' like....Uh....like a fag."
On a serious note, The Prowler is mad that Pres. Obama didn't thank former Pres. George Washington.
-
Meh...I see more "we," "us," "our," "United States," America(ns)," etc., than I do "I," "me," "my," and so on. And most of the usages of "I" seem pretty factual to me. I mean, he is the one at the podium reporting this, isn't he? He did call President Zardari, didn't he? As Commander in Chief, he was the one responsible for making the determination about this military action, wasn't he?
Now, I will agree that stating the operation was carried out at "his direction" was rather misleading. Contextually, I can see where he was likely referring to the fact that the decision to take on this military action was his, but grammatically, it was poorly delivered. Similarly, calling it "my" team is rather odd.
But let's be honest...he's the Commander in Chief. When a military briefing occurs, it's for the President's benefit so that he can make a decision based upon the advice and information from military advisors and officials. Kudos to the United States military for being world renown bad asses, but the decision to put them to use had to come from somewhere.
I'm not saying that Obama should be praised for that decision, as I'm pretty sure it would have been a simple decision to make:
"Sir, our intel has informed us of Bin Laden's location, and we've got all of the bad assery we need to kill him."
"Go."
Let's not forget that it was very clearly stated that "the United States has conducted an operation that killed Osama bin Laden," that a "small team of Americans carried out the operation with extraordinary courage and capability," and that "we give thanks to the countless intelligence and counterterrorism professionals who’ve worked tirelessly to achieve this outcome."
Perfect speech? No, but I certainly don't think all of this "me, me, me" blame being put on Obama is warranted.

So while some of you are running to the Obama's rescue from those baaaaad-ole-right-wingers, even the Left is recognizing the administration's selfpromotion campaign. Perhaps, much of this "I-and-me" is factual, but they did take advantage of an opportunity to take more credit than ordinarily appropriate or deserved in a situation such as this.

Well, it seems that the Muslim community isn't happy with Barry's interpretation of Muslim standards either...

Muslim clerics said Monday that Osama bin Laden's burial at sea was a violation of Islamic tradition that may further provoke militant calls for revenge attacks against American targets.
Bacon may have been a better idea afterall.

Umm, Andrew Malcolm was the press secretary for Republican Governor Marc Racicot, and was deputy communications manager for the Bush presidential campaign.
But regardless of who is complaining about Obama's speech, I still don't see it, aside from a couple of sentences. For the majority of the speech, he focused on "America" and "we," and explicitly gave praise to the military forces for their success, not his own. Again, not a perfect speech, but everyone is overreacting as if he just jerked off to his own photograph on stage or something.

I will give Barry props for calling President Bush to let him know. But he called Clinton too, so that is kind of a wash - and kind of unnecessary since you know Hillary had already told him...
-
I don't like Obama, but I'm also not one of the ones that always looks for something negative in anything he says, or anything like that. However, I also did not appreciate his tone for some of the speech. I didn't like how much he involved his actions in the speech, and how it seemed like the mentioning of our armed forces was but a footnote to the success of the mission. Yes, we know that as Commander in Chief, you made some decisions to make this happen. That's something that is understood that goes without saying. So let our armed forces have this one.
Politicians-
Mission goes bad- There were mistakes that were made. I will find out where.
Mission goes good- I made Decisions

Well, harumph, harumph, harumph... I really don't see where everyone is overreacting. I mean, aside from a couple of sentences, you gurlz are whining louder in here than what I'm hearing and reading elsewhere.

On a smaller scale, take our fire department for example.
In any leadership/incident command/fire officer type classes you take, they teach you alot of things. One of the things they teach you is basically, the art of mind fucking.
..insert movie quotes here..
Anyway, one of the things they teach you is to never take credit for shit. Especially in front of your people. And if the situation is unavoidable, you reflect as much of that back on your people no matter what. Even if they didn't do shit. Your people were the ones that made this accomplishment happen, not you. You avoid using "I" as much as possible, and pour on the "us" and "we". Using this approach with your people builds rapport in their minds, and it makes them more eager to work for you. It makes them want to follow you.
Like I said, the only two issues I really had with his speech was the way he seemingly patted his own back for half of the speech, and made our armed forces a footnote, or afterthought. We know you made some decisions. You're the Commander in Chief. We get it. No reason to tout that when you could just as easily say "Intelligence was presented to us in August, and through due diligence, that intelligence gave us the opportunity to find OBL, and carry out a successful mission today."

Who's the Other Islamic Militant Nabbed This Year in Abbottabad?
In January of this year, in the same Pakistani town of Abbottabad where Osama bin Laden met his demise, a senior Indonesian militant named Umar Patek was arrested. One of the leaders of the al-Qaeda-linked Southeast Asian terror group Jemaah Islamiah (JI), Patek is believed to have helped coordinate the 2002 bombings on the Indonesian tourist island of Bali, which killed 202 people. Since then, Indonesian authorities had tracked down nearly all of the major Islamic extremists associated with that terror attack. Deemed Southeast Asia's most wanted terrorist, Patek, like bin Laden, had been on the run for nearly a decade.
Indonesian authorities are currently negotiating with their Pakistani counterparts to have Patek extradited back home. The Indonesian's wanted poster shows a gaunt man with bushy hair and beard, a camouflage-printed cap on his head. An ethnic Arab native of the Indonesian island of Java, he embodied a militancy that ran counter to the moderate, syncretic form of Islam largely practiced in Indonesia. But homegrown radicals, some of whom want to establish a region-wide caliphate, have managed to carry out a series of religiously inspired attacks across the country, with bombs targeting nightclubs, hotels, restaurants and the Australian embassy in capital Jakarta, among others.Even as Indonesians celebrated Patek's arrest, which was only announced in late March, Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono warned of “a radicalization movement in this nation with religious and ideological motives.†Although a moderate himself and a proponent of the country's prodigious efforts to nab and kill terror suspects, Yudhoyono has been criticized for allowing faith-based sentiment to flourish during his two terms in office. Terror attacks have also stepped up recently. Last month, some 30 people were injured when a suicide bomber detonated his deadly charge at a mosque located inside a police compound. Separately, Indonesian counter-terrorism officials announced that they had foiled a massive bomb that would have targeted a church ahead of Easter holidays. In recent weeks, bombs hidden in books have also been mailed to various prominent Indonesians, ranging from a former counter-terror chief to a liberal Muslim academic. None have managed to kill their targets.
Although Indonesian authorities have tied the book bombs to JI, a report released last month by the International Crisis Group cautioned of a rise in Indonesia of “‘individual jihad' aimed at local targets undertaken by small groups acting independently of large jihadi organizations.†The watchdog's analysis put in worrying context a world in which groups like JI or al-Qaeda are no longer needed to coordinate violence. Now, with bin Laden dead and concerns of retaliatory killings mounting, Indonesia has raised its terror alert. Given its bomb-strewn recent history, the world's most populous Muslim majority nation has good reason to be alarmed.
