THE CLAIM TO THE DEATH OF OSAMA BIN LADEN

Remember "Dubya"? Yeah, that's right, the last President. He was the one the Progressives and the Democratic party in particular, mocked every chance they got. But when Dubya managed to have Saddams boys killed and Saddam himself captured, America and the world was able to see their pictures and eventually Saddams trial and death; Obama, on the other hand went on TV and told the American audience that "Special forces, at my direction, killed Usama, yesterday", and we discharged his body into the ocean.

Obama ran for the office of the President of the United States and on his way there he promised to close "Gitmo", stop the tortures in Gitmo, put an end to Military Tribunals and fight the just war where the real enemy is.

Gitmo is still open; the Military Tribunals will begin to try it first combatants soon, with others to follow and Obama was able to capitalize on the information obtained through those dreaded "tortures" the rest of us call agressive interrogation, and tell the world he authorized the killing of Usama Bin Laden, otherwise known as UBL, whose whereabouts were obtained from prisoners at Gitmo.

So now we have Dubya vindicated, and secondly Obama can claim to have had killed, the man responsible for the deaths of thousands of Americans. But, maybe I'm a little skeptical, why didn't Obama "parade" the evidence of the death of UBL in the progressive news media like MSNBC, ABC, CBS, CNN, or any one of those organizations that would have made a hollywood production out of the actual filming of the death of UBL and the many camera views they could have produced to make his killing a reality TV production for America and the rest of the world to see?

It just strikes me as curious that Obama didn't take the advantage of having his picture placed along side of UBL's body for future political campaign propaganda.

So, do I doubt that UBL is actually dead? Honestly? I hesitate to accept it. I want proof. We had proof of Saddam, give us proof of the death of UBL. This is no simple matter. We have waited a decade for this to occur and we all want to feel a sense of satisfaction that this country made a promise to capture or kill the man responsible for 911 and has fulfilled that promise ..... but I want proof!

Politics being what it is; you just can't accept what one man says, no matter who he is. I can assure you that if I were the president I would want national TV and world wide coverage of the greatest event in modern history .... the killing of UBL, and if I couldn't make that happen I would want to provide as much evidence as I could to leave no doubt in anyones mind that America has done what it promised to do; no matter how long it would take, we will bring the person responsible for the heinous destruction of human life on 911, to justice.

Was there an autopsy to verify that it was an American bullet that killed UBL? Could the autopsy prove that UBL was indeed wounded previously by an American soldier, and did UBL suffer kidney damage or some other major ailment that kept him sequestered for a decade? Did dental records verify who this person was? DNA takes 24 days to verify, so THAT couldn't have been done.

You do see why I have concerns here, don't you?
