Obama to address nation at 10:30 EST

[ghengis86]

at least Ron can really push the "Let's come home already. We got OBL, let's declare victory and come home."

 

[Lovecraftian4Paul]

Still waiting for the Dear Leader to come on...well, at least it's something that doesn't affect anyone. I might just skip out and go to bed if the waiting goes on much longer. I was only concerned it could've been WWIII starting, an asteroid hitting the earth, or total armageddon on Wall Street.

I don't make a habit of watching the news, but my dad was interested enough to call me and say I should watch Obama's announcement. I'll humor it, but good lord is the news mind-numbing.

"This is a huge win for the United States and is the end of a chapter in the war on terror... BUT DONT THINK YOU ARE SAFE! YOU ARE NOT SAFE! THERE ARE TERRORISTS EVERYWHERE AND YOU SHOULD BE AFRAID! But what a tremendous victory this is."

 

[ApathyCuredRP]

U.S. Embassies on alert. U.S. military bases on alert in the Middle East as well. Reprisals anticipated. (OH BOY, here it comes)

You get that feeling that there will be an "attack" again in retaliation of getting Osama ... and thereby reinvigorating this war on terror?... Cause that is what I am feeling. Sickening isnt it.

 

[Ninja Homer]

Geraldo just called bin Laden a FOUNDING FATHER... of Al Qaeda.

Might of been a slip of the tongue, might mean nothing, but I found it offensive because "founding father" has a very specific meaning to me.

A couple months early lovecratian.

That's what I was thinking too

For sure.

 

[UtahApocalypse]

My concern at this point is how many sleeper cells this could be the trigger for. Remember the concept of blowback, WE killed him deserved or not. I fear this could cause something soon.

 

[FreedomProsperityPeace]

Aha! A mansion outside Islamabad! I knew he wasn't in some freakin' cave.

 

[pcosmar]

Gotta wait till it thaws.

 

[sailingaway]

Well, now that I know what it is I don't have to watch it. Thanks.

 

[axiomata]

Make that 11:15 EST

 

[specsaregood]

Gotta wait till it thaws.

but they have had a week now.

 

[mport1]

Pakistan was hiding him? Time to expand the war against them.

 

[tangent4ronpaul]

CNN was rambling on about how "this isn't the end to terrorism, just one faction of it, in fact we need to heighten our awareness....and expect some blowback from many elements around the world who consider him a hero"

How odd - that is almost verbatim what Geraldo just said on FOX

 

[ApathyCuredRP]

Over under on when another attack is going to conveniently happen for our establishment to "take advantage" of and drum the sheep back into order? 1 month, 2 ?

yep
