This all reminds me of the Wizard of Oz. As teh house fell upon the wicked witch of the east, an even wickeder witch arose from the west to take her place. Hmmm...Lets all see how long it takes for that "WICKEDER WITCH TO ARISE" to take Osamas place... and what will that mean for america(ns)? Oh and BTW how much more will the TSA searches become after the new "witch" surfaces?

US warns of anti-American violence after bin Laden


   
MATTHEW LEE, Associated Press Matthew Lee, Associated Press – 1 hr 16 mins ago

WASHINGTON – The State Department early Monday put U.S. embassies on alert and warned of the heightened possibility for anti-American violence after the killing of al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden by American forces in Pakistan.

In a worldwide travel alert released shortly after President Barack Obama late Sunday announced bin Laden's death in a U.S. military operation, the department said there was an "enhanced potential for anti-American violence given recent counterterrorism activity in Pakistan."

"Given the uncertainty and volatility of the current situation, U.S. citizens in areas where recent events could cause anti-American violence are strongly urged to limit their travel outside of their homes and hotels and avoid mass gatherings and demonstrations," it said.

The alert said U.S. embassy operations would continue "to the extent possible under the constraints of any evolving security situation." It noted that embassies and consulates may temporarily close or suspend public services, depending on conditions.

Yeah the political implication is OBAMA WILL BE RE-ELECTED IN 2012

Osama Bin Laden death: Political implications


   

Chris Cillizza Chris Cillizza – 41 mins ago

Los Angeles – The news that Osama bin Laden has been killed in a CIA operation will have a massive — although yet-to-be-fully determined — impact on the political landscape of the country.

The simple fact is that there is and will continue to be a huge desire for the details of how, when and where he was killed as well as analysis of what it means for American foreign policy. Media coverage for days — if not weeks — will be dominated by the news.

That landslide of coverage/attention will force anyone operating in the political space to respond to it. So, while this news is not political, it will cause major reverberations in the political world.

What we know in terms of the impact of bin Laden’s death is far less than what we don’t know. And, it’s easy in the moment to draw overbroad conclusions about the political meaning of these sorts of major events. (Remember that many people — and political strategists — insisted that then President George H.W. Bush was unbeatable in the 1992 election following the successful Gulf War.)

But below are a few likely near-term outcomes.

A partisan putting-aside: Bin Laden’s death will almost certainly serve as a symbolic bookend to the decade-long struggle against terrorism that began with the attacks against New York City, Washington and Shanksville, Pennsylvania on Sept. 11, 2001.

In the wake of that terrorist attack, there was an extended period of bipartisanship — or, perhaps more accurately, non-partisanship — in the political world.

The early reaction to bin Laden’s death suggests a similar putting aside of partisanship as a rallying effect takes hold in the country. And, Obama encouraged that sentiment in his remarks tonight; “Let us think back to the sense of unity that prevailed on 9/11,” said the president.

Whether — and how long — that spirit lasts is unknowable.

* Obama as leader: While the work of tracking down and catching bin Laden was a decades-long process that involved three presidents — not to mention thousands of people — it was President Obama who made the order today that put the operation in place that killed bin Laden. It was President Obama who announced bin Laden’s death. It was President Obama who, in his remarks tonight, used the killing of bin Laden as evidence that America can accomplish anything to which it sets its mind.

All of the above — not to mention the surge of patriotism in the wake of bin Laden’s death — will strengthen the image of Obama as a leader. It will also complicate attempts by Republican presidential candidates — at least in the near term — to attack Obama on any topic.

Former Minnesota governor Tim Pawlenty’s statement on the news is indicative of what’s to come; “I want to congratulate America’s armed forces and President Obama for a job well done,” Pawlenty said.

* It’s (still) the economy: Yes, this is giant news. Yes, this will be a defining moment of the Obama presidency. No, it will not likely fundamentally alter the over-arching issue of the 2012 election, which is, and is nearly-certain to remain, the economy.

In the coming weeks, the economy will take a backseat to the unspooling of the details of bin Laden’s death. But, the story will — at some point — lose steam and begin to move from the top of peoples’ minds. (To be clear: it’s not likely to disappear entirely given the magnitude of what the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001 meant to the country.)

When that happens, gas prices, the unemployment rate and the general direction of the economy will reassert themselves as major issues heading into next November.

240 is going to be spraying pro-Obama cum all over his monitor when he sees this.


SPLOOOOOOOOOSH!

Okay, any predictions on Gallup numbers over the next 3 weeks for Obama?

Coicidental timing that he knew OBL was in a pine box 7 days ago - BUT - he released the birth cert FIRST.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I hate Obama almost as much as Osama but not quite.

This is big for Obama ( the only good thing that has happened on his watch in 2.5 years) but if the economy is in the tank, it won't mean much overall.

This is a victory for America. I don't care about who the President is for the time being.

For today at least, I am very proud of our Communist and Chief and my country.

"WASHINGTON – Osama bin Laden, the face of global terrorism and architect of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, was killed in a firefight with elite American forces Monday, then quickly buried at sea in a stunning finale to a furtive decade on the run."

"The U.S. official who disclosed the burial at sea said it would have been difficult to find a country willing to accept the remains. Obama said the remains had been handled in accordance with Islamic custom, which requires speedy burial."

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_bin_laden


I call BS on this one!

Were these "elite" American forces Muslims?  When Bush had Saddam's sons killed, their bodies were displayed for days as proof.  What proof is there now that Bin Laden dead?  Oh, the government said so.  Therefore it must be true.

No, just because we hadn't heard anything for a long time and our government long ago dropped using his name to justify our occupation of Afghanistan. Simple logic.

Well, if we had the body for years, why not stage the kill in Afghanistan?

Simple logic.

Obama killed Bin Laden, after Bush failed.

Shitty troll gimmick attempting to politicize this.

Protip: This is the culmination of something that started over 4 years ago.

LMAOOOOOO--- Obama personally walked into the American taxpayer funded mansion Osama was staying at, and shot Osama. Bush tried to do the same thing repeatedly, but failed. I see.

Did an ied or roadside bomb force you to land on your head, or were you always this stupid?
