Re: We got him!!

Many thoughts from Forrest ...... Just came back from Kent State University KSU where at 12:28 PM , 5-4-70 ; 41 years ago we had four students shot and killed. AT THAT TIME , I was sort of in agreement with our Government, I do wonder what would they have accomplished had they lived.
Only one was a bit of a radical, but he still had the right to protest the way he was doing it. Oh well, I will never have the answers and we sure will never have World peace till we all realize that we are "Earthlings" ..... our area is still a swamp, airport is closed again till probably Monday. I am very happy we got Obama ; OR did we??

Did you mean Osama? Does anyone, besides me, find it odd that the "liberals" are applauding what the intellignece and military units did. They usually are against these groups.

Re: We got him!!

I don't find it odd at all! In fact, Harry Truman, a liberal, created the CIA and also the Department of Defense. Currently , a liberal, Leon Panetta, is the head of the CIA, and was ordered by President Obama to GET Benladen. He DID. I also remember the liberal, triple amputee, Max McCellan, (Vietnam Vet.) who Saxby Chambliss called a "Commie", lied about him and beat him in a run for Congress. (You spelled intelligence wrong.) (P.S. McCellan currently holds a top post at the Veterans administration.) Same for John Kerry who VOLUNTEERED for swift boat duty and was lied about repeatedly while the President at the time refused service in Vietnam and refused to serve his full term in the air guard even though it cost over a million to train him as a pilot. (He had to sign a CONTRACT before he was allowed pilot training.)JC

If you've got the time, take a look at Restrepo. It's a really good documentary of what US forces have faced and are facing in Afghanistan as we sit here on our couches and flip through the channels.

How come Obauma is getting the praise for doing this is what I wanna know.

Re: We got him!!

He is trying to get his ratings up. He says he does not want any publicity from this, so why is it on the news 24 hrs a day and him making speeches of how he doesn't want this to be political. Looks to me like if he can stop The intire world from seeing death photos of Bin Laden he should be able to stay off the news and keep the media from bring it up. I would say the media is doing what they are told right now. Marv

Re: We got him!!

The WHOLE truth will come out . I did make a slip up on the names, ( hmmmmmm or did I?)
Leon Panetta did a lot of masterful manuvering to convince the President to allow these actions to take place. I am sure if there was a failure, the President would not have agreed that he was at the forefront of the action. They should ahve just looked at Google Earth in the beginning:

Re: We got him!!

Could it be that the 25 million dollar reward had something to do with it? Some higher up in the Pakistani intelligence or military has gotten the 25 mill reward offered after tipping us off and has been flown out of the country? Makes sense seeing as the entire ruling class over there is corrupt. I agree that the big story WILL eventually come out. Personally, I'm sure of nothing other than the former President stated that Ben laden was" no longer of interest" and that the current President had the balls to go for him, and GOT him! If it had failed, President Obama would have HAD to accept responsibility as HE is the only one who could have ordered the mission.JC
