1. Good questions to ask regarding any government story

2. some more questions from the article:
"Was Osama bin Laden intentionally shot? Weren't they all sleeping at 1am local time--and why couldn't the small number of people in the house have been immobilized with gas or stun technology? What was the internal policy on how to handle the ultimate hot potato--and what were the real preferences in terms of 'dead or alive'?

"Why did they first tell us that he 'resisted' and therefore had to be shot? Surely, the SEALS and their commanders knew at the time what happened--and communicated that well before Obama's speech. How did the story get screwed up initially?

<...>

"Why, exactly, did he have to be tossed into the sea? Why not say he was given a land burial, per Islamic law, in an undisclosed location--but do so in a location where his body could be exhumed were additional forensic work deemed necessary at a later date?

<...>

"Can those who were tough on Bush apply the same standards and skepticism to the Obama administration, or is everything partisan and self-serving now?"

7. please list out all the lies obama has told us. and do not start in on the campaign stuff
with bushco there were many many clear lies. would we be fools to believe a damn word he said? absolutely not.

but before i color someone as a liar, i have to at the very least, experience some of his lies. so, since obama has gotten into the wh, when have we caught him in a lie, with things he has done or is doing.

8. I find it hilarious that people here are worried about retaliation...

As if Al Qaeda was ever as large of an organization as the Bush-era fairy tales would have you believe. He was responsible for some vile acts, yeah... but I never believed Al Qaeda was on the scale of the daily propaganda that was forced down our throats.
