blueblood Posted May 2, 2011 Report Posted May 2, 2011 This is going to be all over the morning loop on tv, the net, the radio, and people chatting about it at the polls. Could very well help harper.

Moonlight Graham Posted May 2, 2011 Report Posted May 2, 2011 How does this affect the election? I'll bet this will lower voter turnout at least very, very slightly because this story will dominate the news tomorrow and some people will forget to vote.

jbg Posted May 2, 2011 Report Posted May 2, 2011 So, how long until Donald Trump asks to see Osama's long form death certificate? Look, Trum is not a major force in U.S. politics. Get it?

msj Posted May 2, 2011 Report Posted May 2, 2011 Look, Trum is not a major force in U.S. politics. Get it? Well, if Trump can produce his own official death certificate like he produced his own official birth certificate for the outing of Obama's long form birth certificate then I will certainly agree!

maple_leafs182 Posted May 2, 2011 Report Posted May 2, 2011 America can shoot any man in the face when we put our minds to it! When we work together towards wonderful goal. God Bless America! Yes, we live in a fucked up world where killing other people is viewed as being an achievement. Go Team! I also believe this is a good thing for the Conservatives, I think they do better at the polls because of it. Godsmacked, if this a conspiracy, I think influencing the Canadian election would be the reason for it. If the big corporation are in control such as the Military Industrial Complex, it would play into their favour having a Canadian government that would support America's military actions. I am not saying there is a conspiracy but there may be, war is very profitable.

Pliny Posted May 2, 2011 Report Posted May 2, 2011 I don't expect too much celebrating in Washington State, Bonam. Perhaps, if anything, a sigh of relief. Times square on the other hand is buzzing. I didn't see anyone saying they crap on the American flag either. Wonder what those guys are doing now? All in all, it's an objective achieved and a happy time for most Americans, I believe...oh....and kimmy as well, I see!

Topaz Posted May 2, 2011 Report Posted May 2, 2011 I'm not 100% sold on this story, partly because this was done a week ago, buried at sea quickly, and I did find a picture of THEE dead OBL, until you get to the bottom of the story that says its a fake. Remember, who we are dealing with the US and the CIA, which is capable of creating anything they want and make it appear true. OBL was/is a former CIA agent and I don't believe he is responsible for 9/11 and I still believe in the "inside" US help. After reading other forums today, people are not believing 100%. So, if its true or not, US and its leaders, have put another target on their backs because revenge will be on the minds of others and things could get worse for Americans. http://blogs.reuters.com/russell-boyce/2011/05/02/bin-laden-is-dead-prove-it/ Quote

This wasn't done a week ago, he was killed yesterday according to Obama. Does anyone believe he was buried at sea? I dunno, i can see them hanging on to him for awhile.

What evidence is there that OBL was a CIA agent? This whole story is going to bring conspiracy theories, like he's alive & stuck deep in Gitmo or something.

But when you live in a mansion in a military city in Pakistan, they damn well knew where he was. A 6-5 man standing among a bunch of short Pakistanis? The Pakistani intelligence agencies and their military knew exactly where Bin Laden was. And now I think we see the resone why the USA drones were no longer needed in the area, the hunt for him is over. Bhutto also claims he died years ago, but her life was cut short when she was campaining for president of Pakistan when Mushareff stepped down (he was probably told to gtfo by the US) And really, Rick Berman was able to interview Osama and throw that up on CNN, but yet the military could not find him. Uh huh. Personally I think Osama was killed at Tora Bora in Afghanistan. Something is brewing. Quote
Avro Posted May 2, 2011 Report Posted May 2, 2011 (edited) It's funny, Bin Laden killed by Obama. A a spooky black socialist Kenyan Muslim does something no Republican could. Bush 0 Obama 1 Not only that, the CIA under Obama found the douche bag and kept it secret since August. Can't wait to see Republican'ts struggle with this one.....isn't that right Mr. Trump?

Sir Bandelot Posted May 2, 2011 Report Posted May 2, 2011 Yeah they claim he was buried at sea. I think it's a little odd. But what else would you do with the dead body, parade it around NYC? Quote

I think they could have nailed him any time they wanted from December 2001 on and the powers that be waited until the right moment in someone's re-election campaign. George W. Bush didn't need it to win in 2004 and knew, given the Lehman debacle, that it wouldn't help McCain much.I find the timing convenient and suspicious.

Pliny Posted May 2, 2011 Report Posted May 2, 2011 (edited) Can't wait to see Republican'ts struggle with this one.....isn't that right Mr. Trump? Struggle? Really, I think they will be quite pleased. Of course, the first words out of Obama's mouth that I heard were...."Today, at my direction...." I hope the mainstream media picks up on Topaz's take and runs with it. They probably would have if Bush had accomplished the objective. Since it happened under Obama's direction it will be pretty straight forward in the press and those conspiracy theories will remain on the fringe. The 9/11 inside job did catch the MSMs attention and it took a long time to drop off their radar - at least until after the election in 2008 and when Obama failed to ask the CIA for their UFO files.
