    That picture was apparently staged (the original, that is) anyway.

    Nobody knows what they were all looking at, but it wasn’t video from Pakistan.

    Basketball, maybe?

    @ lobo91:

    Probably took an older picture of a group watching something very tense going down and said “this is what concern and suspense looks like – okay, everybody! Take your seats and let’s shoot this puppy.

    Maybe a studio still from “24″ and Bammy doin’ his best Jack Bauer.

    I still can’t believe they actually released a picture that makes it seem that that Obama is sitting in the little chair at the kid’s table.

    Basketball??? Oh nice, basketball & a Black Man!
    Don’t you know that it is racist to notice that
    Obama plays basketball, even when he flaunts it?
    I am tempted to report this to Charles, or go right to the top Iceweasel.

    @ Nevergiveup:

    I know, really. And frankly, considering the way they are now changing the story about the raid on OBL’s house – what are we up to now? Version 354? It’s starting to have more twists than a soap opera….”Tune in again tomorrow for “Days of Our Jihad….”

    He was sulking because Panetta told him to get off the damn golf course and get his lazy ass in the White House. And “No, we are not going to call off the operation. And if I hear one more word from that stupid bitch Jarrett, I am going to send her up on charges that she is a spy for Iran.”

    For once, Obambi might be getting some real blowback from voting ‘present’. He’s not used to claiming responsibility for anything, just putting blame elsewhere. Taking a seat away from the action looks good on him. He’s nobody. Using this KID, Carney, as a mouthpiece shows exactly the level of incompetence Obambi chooses to surround himself with. Bad dog!

    Isn’t it interesting that Mr. Abu-Ghirab-Photos-Must-Be-Released, and Mr. I-Me-My-Mine-Ain’t-I-Decisive-And-Presidential is acting like he’s weary granny panties when it comes to releasing a photo of the dead piece of shit?

    With the Clinton, they lie simply because they can. I believe it was William Safire that called Hillary a “congenital liar.” He was right.

    Yesterday, they claimed that there was no video, yet here’s a picture of them supposedly watching it.

    Stole this from someone at ACE:

    Dear Muslim friend,

    I’m taking a moment to write to you in the aftermath of a serious turn of events which I’m certain you’ve heard of by now; namely, the death of Usama bin Laden.

    As you may also be aware the American political class is involved in a deep, internal debate as to whether or not it would be appropriate to release photos taken that fateful night of Mr. Bin Laden after his life had been lost.

    There are abiding concerns that you, our Muslim friend, will be upset, inflamed, enraged or any one of a number of negative dispositions.

    YOUR FEELINGS IN THIS MATTER ARE IMPORTANT TO US

    If you find yourself offended, saddened or otherwise upset by recent events please take a moment to register your thoughts with us by filling out the simple form below:

    @ Nevergiveup:
    HotAir commenter has a link to Gizmodo that said:
    Navy SEAL dogs are badasses, yes. But did you know some of them have titanium fangs, designed to rip through enemy protective armor?

    That titanium grill runs $2,000 per tooth. The end result, US military dog trainer Alex Dunbar tells The Daily, is that being bitten is “like being stabbed four times at once with a bone crusher.” Hard. Core.

    They live well, too. They get special air-conditioned kennels on the larger FOBs.

    The handlers live there, too, which is a nice bonus for them.

    @ Buffalobob:

    I loved Ace’s comment on why George Bush didn’t attend the victory lap at Ground Zero. Basically he said that Bammy has a way of inviting you to his party and then bitchslapping you in front of the guests – as Paul Ryan and the Supreme Court can attest. Pretty soon no one’s going to be accepting Bammy’s invitations.

    I hear he invited Bill Clinton too — and Clinton refused. Hell, now even his OWN people are going “nah, I don’ think so.”

    I have no trouble believing that Bammy would have found a way to deliver a dig at Bush and in his narcissism believed the crowd would have eaten it up. Anyone else have a feeling Engine 54 would rather have cooked for Bush rather than Bammy?
