I find it interesting that the left has Obama winning the election for killing Osama. Problem with that is this.
The death of Osama bin Laden isn’t going to pay off a dollar of our national debt, nor is it going to result in any significant lowering of our deficit.
Two bullets in Osama’s head aren’t going to create jobs in America or help Americans save their homes from foreclosure.
Osama’s burial at sea isn’t magically going to lead to a discovery vast new undersea oil reserves that will ease the pain of record-high gas prices.
Obama’s failure to find and deal with Osama (has)bin Laden wasn’t what brought him these negative approval numbers, and sending bin Laden to his eternal celestial waterbed is not going to permanently raise those numbers. The economy still sucks, the dollar continues to fall, business start-ups continue to be slow (or non-existent) due to the tax and regulatory burdens they face in this country. Obama continues in his belief that America’s greatness comes from government and that it is his role as our Dear Ruler to seize wealth from those who have produced it and give it to those who have not because that’s “fair”. Obama’s proposed budgets still call for increased spending in a nation that has spent itself to the brink of insolvency. In other words … the things that made Obama dangerous to the cause of liberty and our economic future haven’t changed one iota with the death of bin Laden.

Sure it did, it shows that he CAN and WILL bring death to ANYONE that DOESN'T see things HIS way....Well, alright, THAT was mean, but, since the SEALS had the chance to take him alive (he was unarmed) and BRING him to justice (military tribunal OR a more international court somewhere in Europe), he chose not to. What did the report say? 'Subject was UNARMED but UNCOOPERATIVE' I swear, that sounds EXACTLY like something you'd hear from the LAPD RAMPART DIVISION!

I think the only reason he gave the order to take out that garbage was to help his political numbers, plain and simple. His numbers will drop again, people are sick of these rising food and fuel prices.
