When you have a reputation for baldfaced lies

Changing the story about Bin-ladins final minutes don't help your credibility. Even to your sycophants in the MSM.

The White House backed away Monday evening from key details in its narrative about the raid that killed Osama bin Laden, including claims by senior U.S. officials that the Al Qaeda leader had a weapon and may have fired it during a gun battle with U.S. forces.

Officials also retreated from claims that one of bin Laden’s wives was killed in the raid and that bin Laden was using her as a human shield before she was shot by U.S. forces


And now, after listening to this clusterf*ck of a story, are we going to say Osama was murdered? Or is the word assassinated? Terminated with extreme prejudice?
In another background briefing early Monday morning, a senior administration official also said bin Laden put up a fight. “He did resist the assault force. And he was killed in a firefight,” the official said.

However, during a background, off-camera briefing for television reporters later Monday, a senior White House official said bin Laden was not armed when he was killed, apparently by the U.S. raid team.

Another White House official familiar with the TV briefing confirmed the change to POLITICO, adding, “I’m not aware of him having a weapon.”

“The bottom line is the team that entered that room was met with resistance and took appropriate action,” said a third American official

UMmm...did you just admit that 0bama just ok'd something against the laws of war?
Now, are those SEALs going to be subject to the Hague? Or is Hte iWON going to get a pass for who he is?

But, Hey- lets get in the time machine and pretend like we haven't had those reports for over a week, the proles are gullible enough to forget we only broke the news a week after it happened.
“Two women were shot here. It sounds like their fates were mixed up,” said the U.S. official. “This is hours old and the full facts are still being ascertained as those involved are debriefed.”

  2. I wouldn't be surprised.
    But maybe they'll look at it as payback for the one he got for not being George W.
