Perhaps Obammy can open up the military a bit, by using that 5 million dollar reward money /s

I don’t think the Benghazi perps will ever be apprehended. They’re Muslim Brotherhood and know too many details about the event.

Captured who? Show me the body....which more than we ever got vis-a-vis Bin Laden.

Sounds like a distraction by Obungo to me.

When can we expect mac daddy to have a “I’m the hero here” photo to op for him to accept all the glory for something he has no clue about.

It looked like Obama wanted 2 captures on the same day for the photo-op. But if this is all true, then he got 1 captured and 1 killed.

If we have captured two terrorists today it means that Obama is not calling the shots.

Just heard they’re going to discharge me this afternoon
and transfer me to a short-term rehab center.
Hoping to get physical therapy there so I can transfer
in and out of bed by myself, then I can go home.

Woo hoo!!

Since we don’t know who did the second one, I wonder if that is a clue for who did it?

It’s time to kill Bin Laden again. It worked so well for Obama the first time.

I wonder if this is a second clue to who conducted the snatch?

“Navy SEALs emerged before dawn from the Indian Ocean to attack a seaside villa in a Somali town known as a gathering point for militants, while American troops assisted by F.B.I. and C.I.A. agents seized a suspected leader of Al Qaeda on the streets of Tripoli, Libya.”

If that's true, we'll have to kill him "accidentally" before he tells us anything.

Well, this is news. Will he be pardoned by the White House anytime soon?
