Osama Bin Laden’s Pictures…

   …will not be released by the White House, as you may know.

   I myself see no reason to release the photo’s to the public just  to appease the wing-nuts and the rest of the conspiracy buffoons.  you cannot satisfy any of those idiot groups anyway, no matter what you do.

  One who is in disagreement with me would be Jon Stewart

The Credit That Bush Deserves For Bin Laden’s Death? NONE!!!

  Do yourselves a favor and do not listen to those factually-challenged Republicans when they tell you that former resident Bush deserves credit for the death of Bin Laden. the only credit that the fool deserves is the credit for stopping the hunt for Osama.

ABC News

The revelation that intelligence gleaned from the CIA's so-called black sites helped kill bin Laden was seen as vindication for many intelligence officials who have been repeatedly investigated and criticized for their involvement in a program that involved the harshest interrogation methods in U.S. history.

"We got beat up for it, but those efforts led to this great day," said Marty Martin, a retired CIA officer who for years led the hunt for bin Laden.

Mohammed did not reveal the names while being subjected to the simulated drowning technique known as waterboarding, former officials said. He identified them many months later under standard interrogation, they said, leaving it once again up for debate as to whether the harsh technique was a valuable tool or an unnecessarily violent tactic.

WASHINGTON, July 3 — The Central Intelligence Agency has closed a unit that for a decade had the mission of hunting Osama bin Laden and his top lieutenants, intelligence officials confirmed Monday.

The unit, known as Alec Station, was disbanded late last year and its analysts reassigned within the C.I.A. Counterterrorist Center, the officials said.

I know what my answer is.  I give Bush all the credit in the world for making certain we would not find Osama bin Laden or bring him to justice until someone else became President.  He did a great job at accomplishing that mission.       Steven D
