Osama died in Tora Bora years ago.
This is just another scheme by Obama for a ratings boost.
I say
HOAX !!! HOAX !!! HOAX !!! HOAX !!! HOAX !!! HOAX !!!
If you will recall, the official position for any high level kills was that the body would be prominently photographed and the body put on display so that the bad guy’s followers and the common people would be able to see that the bad guy was dead and would never bother them again. Only after this would the body be disposed of.
They did this with Saddam’s sons and torture buddies; they did this with al-Zarkawi, why not Osama?
This is too convenient, and, comes at a time that Obama needs a boost in the polls to deflect the birthers, the economy and the daily sky rocketing oil prices.
Give me a break. Buried at sea? And before the official announcement? This just reeks of HOAX.

Maybe OB can have the kids whip out a death certificate for OBL. Then if the deceased were to make a surprise appearance, they could just claim that OCR software and scanners are not to be trusted!

Zero has zero cred...

If it is a hoax...

It will prove to be one very darn dangerous announcement to make. With all the unrest in that area of the world...a hoax announcement of this scale?

Maybe they(we) are setting 0bama up for removal from office due to insanity? /sarc

So, after the decision was made to take the life of Osama bin Laden, out of respect for his religious tradition the evidence of his death is destroyed? That strains credibility.
.
And what exactly was gained by “respecting his religious tradition”? Will that cause “the Muslim street” to forgive the taking of bin Laden’s life? Having taken bin Laden’s life, would not “respecting Muslim burial customs” cause significantly more anger on “the Muslim street”? And just where in “Muslim burial customs” is disposal at sea?
.
One must remember we are not dealing with the most transparent Administration in history, nor with the most trustworthy of Presidents. Skepticism is not inappropriate. While it would be a plus if bin Laden were gone, these are nagging questions that diminish the sense of closure one would hope to have at this moment.
