Obama to speak in 30 minutes - or in an hour or two (Live Thread)

Posted on 05/01/2011 7:11:45 PM PDT by ConservativeMan55

Geraldo just announced Obama will make some sort of statement in 30 minutes. Geraldo says this is unusually late and figures it has something to do with Libya.

I guess not at whichever college is within walking distance of the WH.

That's certainly a rent-a-mob, but you usually don't see them waving the Stars and Stripes. :)

I don’t know how they did the DNA tests then. It has to take longer than a day, even with all the power and might of the US military and/or intel agencies.

If our Navy Seals shot him, they could have flown the DNA to DC and asked Abby Sciuto to put a rush on it

That might be the response from the Muslim street. Officially Pockeeston will say something appropriately trite and self serving.

Here is what I think happened.

The story was going to be we got him a week ago and just got back the DNA results.

But then something happened behind the scenes..and they decided that story is going to be a problem - for whatever reason- diplomatic issues, whatever..

so an hour goes by while they decided what to do..
and now the story is we got him today.

What average Americans are paying at the pump is one huge deal....and of course, NO JOBS......people could care less when they haven’t money to buy gas...and who is suffering the most...blacks......

Watching al Jazeera. They are covering the demonstrations in front of the WH. I am sure the WH does not want these demonstrations at the WH. It will inflame the Muslim world, if there is such a thing. I would not want to be at one of our embassies today. We will be at high security alert for some time to come.

IF Obama gave the order TODAY as he said in his speech...yet the DNA is done and we killed him last week.......did he really ever give the order? If he did the timeline shouldn’t be so confusing with conflicting accounts.

Yes he did. It was an uncharacteristically good speech.

The idiots cheering outside of the White House should be cheering outside the Pentagon.

The White House is closer, they can walk there from GWU.

His speech-writers have probably been slaving over that one all week.

Don’t think it is a factor. maybe a 3 on a scale of ten. Certainly doesn’t hurt, but if the economy is still in the toilet, there will be a new President in 2013.

As a reality point, this is a great event, but really not overly significant. It is unlikely the guy had much at all to do with AQ operations. Obama hasn’t mentioned OBL anytime in my memory since the campaign. It is a positive event, but doesn’t get anyone a job or fill their gas tank or grocery cart.

CNN analyst just said that killing Bin Laden is the end of the global War on Terror. I guess we won!
