Oh Pelosi:
http://www.commentarymagazine.com/2011/05/03/intellectual-dishonesty-of-na%0Ancy-pelosi/
Here’s Nancy Pelosi from a press conference on September 7, 2006:

[E]ven if [Osama bin Laden] is caught tomorrow, it is five years too late. He has done more damage the longer he has been out there. But, in fact, the damage that he has done . . . is done. And even to capture him now I don’t think makes us any safer.
And here’s Nancy Pelosi yesterday:

The death of Osama bin Laden marks the most significant development in our fight against al-Qaida. . . . I salute President Obama, his national security team, Director Panetta, our men and women in the intelligence community and military, and other nations who supported this effort for their leadership in achieving this major accomplishment. . . . [T]he death of Osama bin Laden is historic. . . .

Because she is telling the truth?

What in her second statement contradicts anything in the first?

NOTHING!!

I commend Obama for making this call. This is what this "war on terror" should have been all along; small, calculated missions. All out war is not the answer and has not helped eradicate the enemy, but empowered the enemy and created new "franchises" of Al Qaeda.

I agree with most of that, but the requisite intelligence has not always been in place for as many small, calculated missions as we would've liked to do. I'm sure we would've done one on 9-12-01 if we could've.

Wonder if anyone (especially Billyboy) remembers this...

[video=youtube;luA0AMP51Gc][/video]

Go to the 5:58 mark in the video!


Has Billy admitted he was wrong?

I don't watch O'Reilly and don't care about him, but he was talking about going into Pakistan with military force (the term "invasion" was used) not a single operation where you go into one household to extract someone.

Not sure why anyone cares whether O'Reilly is right or wrong, anyway. Or Beck...or Limbaugh. They're entertainers, not officials.

I don't think I've seen any recanting from Mr. O'Reilly yet. I wonder if he knows this clip even exists.

Again, why does O'Reilly being right or wrong on ANYTHING matter?

I swear, some of you folks are obsessed with these talk show hosts when their opinions are no more important than yours or mine.

And Ty, if you honestly can't see where she says (under Bush) that it's basically too late to catch OBL to make any difference, and then totally flip flops since it happens under Obama...there's no hope for you. Not that I thought there was.

Maybe I should have stated to start the video around 5:44, where they talk about following him to the cave. You also must not have watched the video the end where Obama states he's not talking about a full blown invasion.
Ground troops are ground troops, whether you're talking about 1 or 100,000; and the same can be said about an invasion.
And I agree, they are entertainers, that's why I posted it, for my entertainment! Kind of funny you feel a need to defend the entertainer! LOL!!

Yeah, i just got the message on my phone. Fact of the matter is, if he was still alive, it'd be to easy for Bin Laden to make another video just to day f*** You America, but I'm sure there will be people out there that will doubt his death!

My guess is he already made those videos some time ago before the double tap.

Or sparkie...

Maybe they didn't release them because they put the Kennedy and Hussien pictures to shame in terms of gore and nastiness(quote from a WH source)

I doubt it thats the reason. Kennedy's are pretty nasty though. Bin Laden would have to be missing half his head. They are not releasing the burial at sea pictures either when he is wrapped in clean white cloth. They are already pissed in Pakistan that we when in and killed Bin Laden. They will go ape shit if one of those photos are released.

We watched as our countrymen jumped to their deaths on live TV...saw the Hussein boys...watched Saddam hang...saw a guy have his head cut off...we can handle this fucking shit.

This administration is a joke...so quick to pat themselves on the back they forgot to get their facts straight...now they are back peddling and making fools of themselves and our country. Show the damn picture and save some face.

While I want to see the pictures, this is very sensitive. The amount of backlash that could happen, especially to soldiers overseas....the risk outweighs what a lot of us want.

ummm...we KILLED the guy...you think a picture really matters when it comes to backlash?

Do you do any thinking for yourself or do you let the TV do that for you?

We are talking about the same people that rose to violence because someone drew a cartoon of Muhammed.

I'm a Marine, I like to think I know a thing or two. Releasing pictures would result in even more backlash overseas. It's one thing to proclaim we've killed him, it's another to show pictures of his dead body.

Got a quote where I defended him? Of course you don't. I just got done saying he's irrelevant. So why are you obsessing about what he says and whether he recants or not?
