If nothing will convince you then nobody need waste their time trying.

No body no death.
If you go to Las Vegas and do the Haunted Vegas bus tour and get the old guy who used to be an undertaker, they show you a quick shot of a Tupac autopsy picture. Or so they say.

Maybe they'll have a Haunted Abbottobad tour someday.

Obama is not happy with the last 120 photoshopped pictures of Osama made by his administration, we wont be seeing them till Obama is totally satisfied that they look realistic.

I knew it. It's only been 2 days, and the loons are back at their antics.
What is wrong in wanting to see the pictures?

Why the name calling. "Loons"? really?

Are you one of those who believed Santa Claus too because someone told you so? What about the Easter bunny?

Give me a break.

I want to see the pictures. I am not a lunatic. Is that all you can come up with?

Let me guess, you are an Obama lover and everyone who dares to disagree or even doubt your God is crazy?!

More important than releasing pictures (which can be faked) is releasing DNA evidence of bin Laden's identity. The thing is, the wingnuts here will not know what DNA evidence means or how to interpret it even if their lives depended on it.

Default I want to see Bin Laden's body pics

I think it's good to question authority. I also agree that confirmation of a major development like this is important in establishing credibility. In all probability that information will be forthcoming.

But those who loudly proclaim fakery are doing so for simple-minded partisan purposes. They'll soon be shown to be foolish.

Where was the DNA test performed?

Is this what was used?

I don't know how true that is. I know of forums full of Democrats who believed that Osama was dead long ago.....or was simply the creation of the CIA. The strange thing is that on these same sights people are now cheering and praising the President for getting Osama. I think that the Partisan thing works both ways in that some republican people would believe this if Bush were the current President and you have Democrats who would not believe this if a Democrat was not the President.

What I find incredulous is that the government is said to be pondering whether to release the photos or not. Well......I think any reasonably intelligent person working for the government would have started pondering that decision as soon as it was learned that he was killed. They KNEW that they would need PROOF. I mean...who would not know that? The killing happened more than a week ago and you expect people to beleive that it takes that long to decide whether to release the pictures or not? BS! If they did not know what the publics reaction would be then they are incompetent......period. The released the photos of how they captured Saddam and of his dead sons. They know people need more proof than simply taking the governments word for it (not that a photo is proof). They say that photos are guesome but Americans see gore all the time at the movie theater.....as we are not that senstive about gore and those who are simply choose not to look. They claim that showing the pictures could inspire backlash from the Islamic world. Well, if they were really worried about that they would have just killed him and not announced anything.....thus preventing the backlash that could result from them killing him and Americans dancing in the streets over it. This is so much BS that it makes me scared. Why? Its like like if your spouse was cheating on you and doing it in such a way that made it so obvious that it meant that your feelings really did not matter anymore. This BS is so blatently full of holes that it means that those in power really don't care what you feel or think any longer, when they are that sloppy with it, lest its incompetence (which I doubt). If "they" no longer really care then something really bad is on the horizon. However....all that said.....truth is often stranger than fiction.

Why would you expect snopes to know anything about this? People need to stop trusting snopes so much. They are a mom and pop website that doesn't know any more than we do.
