4. The possible death of Osama has been all over the news all day.

Don't know how you could have missed it. There's multiple threads about it here on DU as well.

7. Grading papers -- no wonder you're frazzled!

5. Unconfirmed, but If OBL is dead

then pound it home at every opportunity that he died a free man.

In spite of tortured captives, OBL died a free man.
In spite of thousands of dead in Iraq, he died a free man.
In spite of countless illegal wiretaps, he died a free man.
In spite of a War President and mission accomplished, he died a free man.

8. And the response will be "but he's dead, who cares."

Don't you love narrow, conservative thinking. Big picture means nothing.

9. They will care, in spades, if OBL is, indeed, dead and the spin begins

Bushco needs to massage this one through the echo chamber. Have your talking points lined up.
