San Francisco Chronicle's online front page headline:

Obama takes credit for U.S. airline bomb plot
- Borzou Daragahi,Greg Miller, Los Angeles Times

[Typical_Whitey]

Well considering that we are giving terrorists the right to remain silent I would say they got the headline right....

hmmm

[Pan_Yan]

What’s the old joke .... the only difference between Obama & Osama is ‘bs’?

The difference is Osama attacks us with his money and tells us he hates us. Obama attacks us with our own money and tells us it's good for us.

Obama sin Laden is an enemy of America.

[doug from upland]

Obama should get the credit, or blame, as it were. Our enemies around the world are being emboldened.

[April Lexington]

All done without a single shot being fired!

Except, of course...Fort Hood.

[Uncle Miltie]

Both want to destroy America.

So the mistake is understandable.

[Beloved Levinite]

LOLOLOL! TRUTH stranger than FICTION!?!?

[Moonlighter]

I’m sure it was just a typo. /s

Ah, there is still hope for the future of journalism.

Maybe it was an intended message to... ?? Sorry, I don’t trust Obama or the SF press.
