Title: The president must provide conclusive evidence of bin Laden’s death

The first reports of Osama bin Laden’s death told us that he was buried within 24 hours of his death, and "at sea,” because “finding a country willing to accept the remains of the world's most [notorious] terrorist would have been difficult.” So we would assume there would be physical evidence of the death if there is no body. That would presumably be photographic identification or DNA evidence. During the Vietnam War, the military on the ground was notoriously unreliable about physical evidence in combat.

Because if I have this right, “the sea” is at least 800 miles from the Abbottabad region of Pakistan where reports say bin Laden was killed. How did they get him from there to the sea? Did they drop him out of an airplane or travel by land convoy 800 miles with the six-and-a-half-foot corpse? Then other reports said the body was delivered to Afghanistan. Did they bring him to Afghanistan and then bring him to the sea? That would have been more than a thousand miles to haul the corpse.

Other reports said that he was or would be identified by DNA evidence. Results of the DNA tests should be available in the next few days, “the official” told Reuters. But then WCVB in Boston reported, “The death of a sister of Osama bin Laden at Massachusetts General Hospital allowed the United States to confirm bin Laden's death, ABC News reported.” So then it won’t take a few days, like the Reuters report claimed? Did they or did they not know through DNA evidence that it was Osama bin Laden they had killed? Especially important since the corpse might have been disfigured in the shooting, so photo evidence would not be conclusive.

What’s it gonna be?

The president needs to clear this stuff up pronto because credibility in crisis is of vital journalistic importance. And precisely at these times you don’t want mischievous and false myth to awaken, like did we fake the moon landing, what really happened at Roswell, where are Biggie and Tupac, was Obama really born in the United States and is Osama bin Laden really dead? This kind of pesky misinformation and seditious and nihilistic propaganda can plague the tabloids for decades. Especially with a press and populace like Fox Mulder, that wants to believe.

While the logistics of removing bin Laden's body are relatively straight forward, I have no problem if they just kicked his carcass out of a C-130 flying over the ocean (laughing).

We'll learn most of the details by the end of the week I suspect.

If John McCain became President, Bin Laden would be alive today.

In July 2008, CNN's Larry King interviewed then-presidential candidate John McCain. The host asked the Republican senator, "If you were president and knew that bin Laden was in Pakistan, you know where, would you have U.S. forces go in after him?" McCain said he would not.

"Larry, I'm not going to go there and here's why: because Pakistan is a sovereign nation."

That line of criticism didn't work for you in 2008, you might want to find a new one before 2012. The bottom line is that Obama accomplished in just over 2 years what Bush couldn't do in over 7.

Owe-bama authorized an assasination of a criminal, in a country allegedly an ally, who we now know gave said criminal safe haven for the past six years. Further, he now says we should continue to pay this nation billions of dollars per year, even though he's bankrupted our nation.

And at the same time tells us 'waterboarding' - which is the only way we came to find said criminal - is 'bad', although there is no documented example its ever caused lasting harm to the person its performed on, let alone caused a single death.

And you on the Left wonder why so many think your insane, huh?

Really?

John Brennan appeared on Morning Joe this morning and countered the claim that has been widely spread since Osama Bin Laden's death on Sunday: namely that waterboarding resulted in intelligence that lead U.S. forces straight to Osama's door.
