i knew it was only a matter of time before the whackaloon conspiracy theories took root.

See, that's what you get from getting your "news" from a bunch of Rightwing political shills. Obama's approval ratings are hardly "in the crapper". The RCP average - which keeps track of and averages ALL the major polls shows that in regards to Obama's approval ratings the country is just about EVENLY SPLIT (46.7 vs 47.7) and that in historical terms his ratings have held up very well indeed. In fact, over the last 50 YEARS, EVERY President except for JFK has had his ratings drop lower than Obama has.

RealClearPolitics - Election Other - President Obama Job Approval

Secondly, your whole premise is pretty silly. If OBL isn't dead don't you think that he could EASILY release a new video proving that- which would make making such an easily proven wrong false claim a pretty dumb thing to do.

I swear, folks on this board REALLY need to use some COMMON SENSE.

Geeze!

I'm thinking your post is a hoax, or maybe bought and paid for?!.....

Anyway, it's great that he's dead, but there are thousands more like him ready to take his place.
Nothing is 'over.'

this is the first evidence i've seen that photographic evidence exists.

The body was photographed before being buried at sea, although no images have been released by the Obama administration.

The Associated Press: AP source: US used 'multiple methods" to ID body

I long since gave up on that. Just had to check in to see if the wing nuts were still just that and my faith in human idiocy has been sustained. Out of here and keep on keeping on my friend.

The QUICK burial at sea and the QUICK burning of the compound(if THAT'S true) sure make it look phony....
They burned the black hawk helicopter, not the compound, which caused an explosion. Burning black hawks is standard procedure in order to prevent the technology from being stolen.

They had to bury him at sea as they couldn't take him on a Navy ship and expect 300 sailors to keep their mouths shut.

Believe it or not, there isn't a conspiracy in everything.

Well, nice to "see" you again - even if only briefly.

I have to admit I don't hang around here that much anymore myself either. The number of really stupid posts I see here all the time just erodes my faith in my fellow Americans too much.
