What a small little man he seems to be....
That is what I noticed too. He appears to be the shortest person in the room.

How long after General P twisted Zero’s arm was this taken?
He really hated having to sign the “Shut up” agreement.
Biden looks lost.

Only one military guy (Air Force)? And he seems to have the nicest chair.
To: nhwingut
As other posters have said... and considering I hate how this guy has lead our country and really have not agreed with him on any topic imaginable... this picture is pretty cool. I will not lie about that.
To be honest, If it were Bush, I would have had it framed.

Are we sure that’s not a picture of them watching November 2010 election returns? Nope. Or NBA Finals. Or a Predator or gunship attack like you can find on weaselzippers.
And what, exactly, are they watching? Remember that movie, I believe it was "Navy Seals" with Charlie Sheen, where they watch an IR video from a satellite of a Seal raid on a desert compound where they kill everyone in the building?
Wow, what a coincidence with what you're supposedly looking at here.
The cruder the cover story is, the more I typically suspect Hillary's hand. And look at the photo - Obama looking like a little boy, while Hillary is both in a command position, and sensitive, at the same time. It was made for Oprah and the Oxygen channel! "Sensitive strong woman gets the job done while being properly horrified, while wimp-boy cowers in the corner." Blech.

Bash to dude all ya want, but he is under tremendous stress in that photo.
He would take the blame/success of the operation.
Obviously, the operators did all the work, but Obama would have to explain another Desert One.
Hillary, looks horrified. Dunno, if she would have made the call.

Exactly. Not a great photo for the Dear Leader.
It looks like he walked in late from the golf course.
Oh. Wait. He did.

The WH released a photo only (no audio or video) because Obama kept asking “Now, which ones are our guys?”

That’s a great photoNo, it's a great caption! What if it was taken while they were watching Rosemary's Baby ?
To: nhwingut
Good photo. There is nothing quieter than warriors going into battle. There is nothing more sobering than watching them get ready, facing their own thoughts.
This photo reflects the highest level that human drama can reach. They see steely-eyed men, grim, and desperate to resolve their mission, going together into the night against the enemy. Not knowing their fate, taking a walk with God.
Bless our warriors.

CLASS shows. None of them has it.
To: Carling
That’s a great photo. I’m as opposed to the Obomba agenda as any poster here, but watching that live feed must have been nerve-wracking.
That was my thought, too. I'd probably smoke four or five cigars over the course of the forty minute raid.
