Here's hoping he/she took the argument elsewhere. It appears so.

Is that how the DoD denial reads to you? "The U.S. Department of Defense denied reports by Iran's official IRNA news agency Saturday that al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden has been captured."

Yes. I remember that thread and the speculation. I guess it was determined that the reporter usually covers the Pentagon and Rummy. But, something is going on with Osama. Either there is something to this "rumor," or they believe he is surrounded, or dead, or about to be. I don't know. We need more from Giganator.
To: Fenris6
Just got home from work. No word on OBL capture has got to me.
But the Admiral did seem unusually happy to be at work on a Saturday. But that could be the result of one of our ops coming up a winner too.
Still keeping my ears open on any official word.

Darn, darn, darn. I'll be back soon if I can't sleep.
Still holding-out hope. Makes sense to me that our State Dept would deny it until later in the day.

Didn't see the White House, but I did see the sunrise over the Capitol building via EarthCam about an hour ago. :)

I truly hope the rumors are correct. However, I won't believe it until Mad Addy Notsobright confirms it.

"The U.S. Department of Defense denied reports by Iran's official IRNA news agency Saturday that al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden has been captured." Well, that pretty much sums it up.
To: Hillarys Gate Cult
Good point. When you compare the terrain of this area to Tikrit, it may take a while to secure bin Laden. With Saddam's capture, we had one of his palaces commandeered just across the river.

(If Clinton is the answer, it was a stupid question.)
Iran's state radio, quoting an unnamed source(MOBY ), said that US Defence Secretary Donald H Rumsfeld's visit to the region this week was in connection with the arrest.

Hmmm - All I'm seeing is multiple media outlets all running with the Iranian story...

But it doesn't deny that he was killed.

Well, if it is true, I guess I'll be hearing about it soon enough. 'Nite, all.

When they took him into custody, was he rambling on about health care?
