    Nothing wrong with what Obama said.

    Great day for the country.

    I bet Bin Laden regrets allowing his iPhone app to "use his current location".

    Abbottabad is part of the NWFP (now called the Khyber-Pakhtunkha Province), and is about 3 hours north of Islamabad by road. I've never been, but I've heard from my parents that it's a really beautiful city.

    Honestly, I'm skeptical about this. There were reports a few years back that he had died in November 2001 due to complications stemming from diabetes and kidney disease.

    Wouldn't mind seeing Time bring back the old WWII cover.

    That and the Nancy Gibbs cover story might be the only reason I'd go back there, just this once.

    I can understand skepticism, but it sounds like they delayed announcing this until they were 100%, DNA-tested, no-way-we-can-f**k-this-up certain.

    It does, but remember these cats fought a seven year war based on African uranium gossip.

    Curious what they'll do with the body. I hope it's never seen again.

    Bush deserves more credit than Obama.

    True but DNA taken directly from Bin Laden's corpse is just a bit more conclusive than "gossip". ;)
