Did anybody really think he would be? Even Trump? Or did people just like the way he stood up to Barack? Well, it’s a moot point, as Public Policy Polling explains: (more)
Jack Shafer at Slate seems to think so. He says releasing the clip of Bin Laden channel-surfing through news reports about himself is exactly what Barack claims he wants to avoid: (more)
1.) Pakistan is really upset about the whole Bin Laden thing, wink, wink — Pakistan has been complaining that the United States violated its sovereignty by killing Osama Bin Laden. As it turns out, this is part of the plan. According to The Guardian, the US and Pakistan made a secret agreement after 9/11 that if we found Bin Laden on Pakistani soil, he was all ours: “The deal was struck between the military leader General Pervez Musharraf and President George Bush after Bin Laden escaped US forces in the mountains of Tora Bora in late 2001, according to serving and retired Pakistani and US officials. Under its terms, Pakistan would allow US forces to conduct a unilateral raid inside Pakistan in search of Bin Laden, his deputy, Ayman al-Zawahiri, and the al-Qaida No3. Afterwards, both sides agreed, Pakistan would vociferously protest the incursion.” So Pakistan saves face after Bin Laden loses his. Fair enough. (more)
I don’t know about you guys, but I was so happy about Osama Bin Laden’s starring role in Feeding Nemo that I spent an entire weekend not thinking about politics. In other words, I sat around watching TV all weekend, and now I’m going to try to get a blog post out of it. If you don’t care, the scrollbar is over there on the right, and the URL field at the top of your screen also works. (more)
When last we heard from Keith Olbermann, he was saying even more creepy things about yet another woman who’s way out of his league. Now there’s word that Keith might be having trouble making the transition from his old MSNBC show, Countdown with Keith Olbermann, to his upcoming Current TV show… um, Countdown with Keith Olbermann. (Hey, if it don’t work, why fix it?) (more)
Yesterday at 4:36 PM, Daniel Halper at The Weekly Standard posted the following blog item (emphasis mine): (more)
I didn’t watch last night’s GOP debate, because it was a debate. But judging by the reaction today, Herman Cain made the biggest impression. (Admittedly, in this crowd that’s not saying much.) Amanda Carey: (more)
It took over 65 years, but as of today, the United States’ total demoralization of Germany is finally complete. Germany, remember them? Made a lot of noise in the ’30s and ’40s. Self-styled rulers of the world, Third Reich, Master Race, that sort of thing. Fairly arrogant, if you ask me. (more)
But who isn’t? Also better-looking, although that doesn’t directly relate to what follows. Bear witness as Scary Larry mewls helplessly at his instructor about what really happened in Iraq: (more)
Actually spiking the football over killing Osama Bin Laden! (more)
We’re now being told to believe two important things: 1) Obama is an awesome wartime president who’s strong on defense, he kicked Bin Laden’s ass, eat it George Bush, Rambo Patton Hoo-Raw; and 2) If you want to see the pictures they took of the event, which they told us they took and told us we’d see, you’re a bloodthirsty jingoist who just wants to “spike the football” and you should be ashamed of yourself. I guess I’m having a bit of trouble reconciling these two new truths. (more)
It’s been less than 72 hours since President Barack Obama announced that U.S. Special Forces “a small team of Americans” had killed Osama Bin Laden. Since then, his administration has been hard at work screwing the whole thing up. (more)
Here she is in May 2009. Take it away, Nancy! (more)
Here’s Brian Williams interviewing Leon Panetta. Starting at the 3:45 mark, they talk about how the U.S. obtained the information we used to track down Osama Bin Laden so a Navy SEAL could blow a great big hole in his skull: (more)
Hey, guess what? Pakistan sucks! (more)
As if it weren’t ironic enough that the Nobel Peace Prize-winning, staunchly anti-war President Obama is taking personal credit for killing Osama Bin Laden, he actually sent the Naval Special Warfare Development Group, AKA DevGru, AKA Team Six to do it. (more)
At least that’s what the Twitter is telling me. The White House announced an emergency press conference at 10:30 tonight, but it keeps getting pushed back. (more)
