They did. In fact, chances are, we won’t find something so radically new from this. It’s not about principle, it’s about trying to stifle a news network as one of many on the market. Cronyism at its best.

The Pentagon does too much obola ass kissing. Go with it.

Wait just a damned minute here; I thought it was Obama that killed Osama. Somebody else is trying to steal the valiant Barack’s valor?

To be clear, there is a difference between a “cover story” and an outright lie.

In a “cover story” all elements are nominally true, they are just not complete.

I would suggest the shooter is the designated team bean spiller. The team wants the story recounted.

He will not be visually identifiable. Perhaps his voice will be altered. He will not be subject to being founf by the bad guys.

Keep in mind that the president is a disreputable tyrant that deserves no respect.

I guess nobody would be interested in a show about the Obama/Biden miracle that saved GM. LOL!

“Zero Dark Thirty, which was controversial for its insinuation that waterboarding was an effective tool in gathering intelligence.”

What is “controversial” about the truth?

We DID obtain critical intelligence from waterboarding.

Does this mean my husband is now free to tell me all about the classified missions he went on way back when? Most of it was probably routine, and not very exciting to hear, but some of it might interest a TV audience. Oh what the hell, let’s just void all those oaths of secrecy.

Who cares anymore? As long as he’s dead and stays dead, I don’t care. We’ll never know the truth and maybe shouldn’t know the details. All this rehashing is turning it into another grassy knoll and is keeping his memory alive in the minds of terrorists.

I’m with you. Fox is supposedly Obama’s mortal media enemy; he rails on them whenever he can. Yet, the network he despises has been on lockdown regarding Obama’s phony/shady biography and now they plan to thwart the weak objections of the Pentagon to highlight something which just so happens to be Obama’s sole “achievement?” Looks like a don’t throw me in that briar patch situation to me.

I don’t know the truth of what did or did not happen in Abbottabod, but .gov certainly can’t be trusted and I’m not so sure about Fox.

frankly. I’ve had a difficult time in believing this Administration’s story with respect to the disposition of the body and in the manner it was so quickly accomplished.

A proper Muslim "burial at sea!" Who would have thought?

I shot a 17 point buck last week, but darn, I forgot to get a picture of it before I wrapped it up with boat anchors and threw it in a deep lake.

None of those that died in the Chinook crash were on Operation Geronimo. I have that from both the Pentagon and a source I trust.

I tend to agree with you, but it gauls me to know that it was okay to give a movie inside access to the details of the mission right before the presidential election.

“gauls me to know..”

At least you’re Franc about your opinion.

I thought Obama killed Bin Laden.

I would normally agree. But not now.

The Pentagon is trying to protect the CinC. I understand that.

I would love to hear this guy say it was supposed to be a snatch and grab that went bad.

Personally, I think Bin Laden died years ago, but that seems to be a “nut job” conspiracy.

Sometimes going public could be self-preservation, who knows? I just remember GWB saying he wanted BinLadens head in a box. I think he received that gift shortly after Tora Bora.
