So a lot of Freepers, kooks, blog pimps, and others have thrown out some conspiracies about the timing of killing Osama bin Laden and Obama's announcement. Figured I throw my hat into the ring:
(1) The petty: Haven't seen anyone else mention that Obama announced his press release just in time to cut off the end of Trump"s "Celebrity Apprentice." And then Obama waited an hour to actually speak. This is trivial, except it shows how that yup, Obama and his media sychophants really are that petty.
(2) Obama conveniently gave the OK just in time to counter some NASTY press and polls. The smart option would have been to plant some deep insertion sniping and intel guys there, snoop all the data and faces/names possible, and then snipe Osama if he ever tried to leave. Of course, the fact that bin Laden was basically "hiding" on top of a Pakistani military outpost might have made that tough. Comments?
(3) All that said, Obama did give (or at least ineffectively try to stop) the OK for Osama bin Laden to be sent to his deity in H#ll. Well, gotta give props to Obama for that. Now I'm going to throw up and have a stiff drink. And no, as something of an lay "expert" at reading body language, Obama was NOT happy. Enraged is word that best describes his posture.
I did. Last night. Then I heard it was Sunday/Monday. This morning I heard it was "last week" again.
Then the wife as a shield.
I heard that. Then I heard it was another male on scene. Then I heard it was OBL again.
You'd imagine these details are part of a "fog of war" but we're more than 24 hours from the announcement. The press and White House should have its story straight.
Maybe it was last week. They wanted to get the intel and use of it.
I get that.
But why lie?
Now it seems like they wanted it politically timed. Handle the BC last week. Announce Sunday night to own the week’s news cycle.
Or was it yesterday the raid happened? News said that tonight. Always “fog” from this administration.
They “leaked” Saddam hanging pics. Sure that’s next.
Very unflattering photo. He’s the small man.
“Did anyone else here the last week reports?”
Got 2 hours of it as it went down, on my DVR.
“Multiple high placed sources”/feeds and a military guy on FOX:
_Killed last week_.
_DNA tests already completed_
But then, all the ‘changes’ came along.
Killed Sunday.
Killed while lying in bed.
Killed while putting up a vicious fight.
Used wife as human shield.
Wife threw herself across his feeble, prostrate body to protect him.
And on and on and on.
Write all the ‘versions’ on a board and chuck darts at them and make up your own.
I feel like I’m kid playing “Mad-Libs” again.

Oh, and the young royal newlyweds sure canceled their honeymoon on a moment's notice, didn't they?
I understand if it did go down last week and they wanted to extract info and do all they could to damage the network BEFORE going public.
But why... tell one story and then change it.
Maybe there’s just complete chaos and incompetence running the show?
I just heard that now there were -23- kids and -9- women in the OBL hut.
Maybe they just found them all hiding in the closet.
My head is spinning.
I’m sure Will just had a headache and didn’t feel like traveling.

I wouldn’t bet a dollar on anything, right now.
I’m not even sure that *I’m* real, at this point.
This can’t be happening.
LOL!
Ah yes, the wedding that the Obama's weren't invited to. That would definitely to go under the "petty" category.

How can Rasmussen have had time to register Obama’s bump—or lack thereof?
“How can Rasmussen have had time to register Obamas bumpor lack thereof?”
I dunno. Probably got punked on that one — saw a post earlier saying that, took it on face value. Oops.
Marxist protege, he held his announcement until May Day.
Yeah, I saw that—good news.
