From the way people are celebrating, it was clearly a big priority for the people of America. Bush gave up in about 6 months. Obama got shit DONE. This isn't just about intelligence. The COMMANDER IN CHIEF runs the SHOW.

Why should this be turned into Bush bashing?

Because you should be getting laid, aka bashing on some Bush.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

I'm actually not a fan of the big, public celebrations in the street. They remind me too much of how the muslims in the middle east were celebrating 9/11.

This.

Yea, I hear that. Except we're the good guys, right?

Speculation on al jazeera just now that pakistan actually turned him in after protecting him up until now.

Pakistan is terrified right now. They've just been shown to be complicit with Al Qaeda while collecting money from us.

Now would be a great time to host the Indian Prime Minister for a State Dinner to send a little message.

 

[maxiep]

I think you have to give the President credit for doing the right thing and ordering a strike inside another soveriegn country. If this wasn't bin Laden, it's an act of war. He took a big risk, and the military rewarded him for it.

As I've said, let the military do their jobs.

Sure, but there were folks in our intelligence agencies toiling for years to track this bastard down and 40 SEALs that risked their lives. I wouldn't give President Bush much credit, either.

Well I would hate to see this event trigger WWIII, in my mind that would only give more power to a now dead asshole. Instead I would use this as leverage behind closed doors to squeeze the shit out of the Taliban and any remaining cells of AQ in Pakistan. This is an opportunity for US intelligence to turn the ISI into an asset rather than a more entrenched enemy. Basically we were taken advantage of financially, but in the end we got the guy we wanted.

Do you really believe that the Bush Administration just stopped looking for him? Really?

Ah. Well then by all means continue.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Yea, I hear that. Except we're the good guys, right?

In our eyes, we are.

Yep. I'm certain there are some very uncomfortable conversations going on between US officals and the Pakistanis about putting up or paying the price.

Was there ever proof that he had something to do with the 9/11 attacks. I thought it was an over whelming majority of terrorist were from Saudi Arabia. Kinda' like all the WMD that Iraq had. Regardless, glad to have this dirtbag off our planet now!

 

[Run BJM]

Hell no. That would have been HUGE for Bush who as we all know, took shit relentlessly for the wars that resulted in little success. He wanted it BAD.

Can't get over how fishy Pakistan smells right now though. I can't imagine Obama got clearance from Pakistan, if he let Pakistan know I can't see it staying under wraps like it did.

Interesting to look back now

Bin Laden is from Saudi Arabia.

Wow, that picture gave me chills.

Bush specifically said it was not a priority back in 2002. You're only as good as your leader. Obama made it a priority and got it done. It was part of his platform. Get the fuck out of Iraq and go after the guys responsible for 9/11. Two years later, he kills bin Laden.

 

[KingSpeed]

Wow, that picture gave me chills.

Me too. Just saw it at nytimes.com. Awesome.

 

[MrJayremmie]

Excellent point from Fox in between their praising Bush:

bin Laden saw the US as a paper tiger. Thought that they had no stomach for a long war. Saw that after his attacks that they kept pulling out. And today, we proved him wrong.

LOL! From Obama's press conference last week about his birth certificate,

“We do not have time for this kind of silliness. We have more important things to do. I have more important things to do."

That was interesting. A nice spotlight on both the high points (strategy vs. Pakistan) and low points (dueling bracelets) of politics.

It's not like they were going to give us a pass if we didn't kill bin Laden. If they've got it, they'll fire it.
