The head of the CIA admitted yesterday that there was no live video footage of the raid on Osama bin Laden's compound as further doubts emerged about the US version of events.

Someone suggested earlier today that it’s a satellite photo of Osama bin Laden’s compound, and it’s been digitally blurred so the high-resolution photo capabilities of U.S. spy satellites isn’t revealed to the public.

Based on other photos I have seen of the day, I believe Panetta is the navy jacket to the far right (next to Clapper). There is a different photo of him and he is wearing that jacket, that tie, and that belt... I could be wrong

OH, MY GOD!!!! :-P :-P :-P

Darn the luck! Now THAT would have been a 'game changer' for sure, if the SEALs had changed their minds the other way!

It IS amazing how this story keeps changing. And another thing.. with no proof made public in the form of photos or video footage of a dead Bin Laden, any reference to his being “killed” or “dead” should include the words “allegedly” or “reportedly.” So far, only the words of Obama`s regime, the Pakistanis and the state-run “media” are all we have.

Verification. It`s not a difficult thing... it`s the RIGHT thing.

Well, he is rumored to have 23 kids. I figure at least a few of them may look like him.

But you are right. We most likely will never be treated to the truth.

Seems to be how things are anyway.

Oh well, Obama won’t be able to ride this story too long. People are losing interest. After all, it has been a long time since Bin Laden was actually news.

Kill mission, no, kill or capture mission, no, wait, CAPTURE or kill, wait one, now just capture mission.

And here is out supreme reader making that very decision....

Huddled with a group of senior advisers (those old balding white guys for those in Rio Vista)

Flips coin......

So, what was it was The Marxist Onada and his “security staff” in the WH Situation Room were staring at in the photop pic that ran a couple of days ago?

Can this imbecil occupying the WH do nothing right? Can he not, for once, simply tell the truth? Obviously rhetorical questions.

Whoa, Whoa, Whoa, He strode out on that red carpet, down the long hallway, strutting like John Travolta in Pulp Fiction. Took the mic, and said, “Obama is Dead!” *yeah!* “And, I killed him.” “I gave the order.” “I was directly involved in every step of the way!” *YEAH!* applause applause applause........ And now, he says he didn't do it? That he wasn't responsible? mmmm mmmmmm mmmmmm Barack Husein Obama! That is going to be tought to back out of. There are dozens of quotes from the Messiah himself saying ‘I did it!’ No possible way he can weasel out of this one. He stuck his out way, way, out too far to deny now. Unless he want to be a laughingstock...no way. he will not get away with it.

Where will his 9pt bump go?

“Our National Security team is a disgrace.”

Until now, I just thought the biggest example was Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, now it’s our president who just jammed his foot in his mouth and can’t get it out.

They sure look like they are watching something? I think they are watching a live video. Look how shocked Hillary is? Must be gruesome to watch. So this does not line up with their statement that there is no video.

I might hesitate over that decision.

LoL!

I was thinking the same way and checked out the weather that day in Islamabad. They did have thunderstorms rolling through the area at various times in the afternoon and evening. Islamabad Weather on 4/30

“I don’t know why the WH has screwed the PR on this up.”

Agree, apparently they had a year, or most of a year, to plan this, you’d think they’d have information/disinformation down on this.

Maybe they are trying to create, not doubt, but conspiracy theories, like with Barry’s BC saga.

Or, being Democrats, maybe the first impulse is untruth. Like the four or more stories of where Chelsea Clinton was on 9/11, or how Bill got the lump on his head, or the corkscrew landing and sniper threat.

They wont release the photo. No photo. No body.

They flew the body directly from the site and dropped it in the ocean. Ergo, no physical evidence. How do we know it wasn't a dummy? How do we know anything?

THEY KEEP LYING TO US, HOW DO WE KNOW ANY DETAIL OF THIS EVENT IS TRUE?

There are 500 conflicting stories on the time line and events and what happened during the fight (oh, and now we have a blackout in the mix)...mmm mmm mmm

Dam! This is huge! I think we have witnessed the biggest hoax ever pulled on the World. Are you sure Obama isn't from Nigeria instead of Kenya? lol

“This is going to get the conspiracy crowd rolling.”

That just might be the plan. Fully riled up conspiracy theories keep people busy, and out of trouble, not doing research into voting records, economics, past public statements, and all the other things that the Internet lets us do that threaten Official Reality.
