Video: Sen. Inhofe On The Osama Photos: "There Were 12 Pics - It Was Him And He Was Clearly Dead"
Get details on this clip here...
There is an interesting dynamic at play. Drudge posted a poll yesterday showing that 20% don't believe OBL is dead. There is another strong contingent who believes an old Fox news report quoting unnamed Taliban tribesman who had reportedly attended OBL's funeral in 2001.
Without taking sides, purely from a journalistic view, the Fox story from 2001 is brutally weak. An unnamed Taliban leader calls a journalist in Pakistan to tell him about the funeral he attended last weekend, where oh by the way the corpse of Osama looked calm and peaceful. Hmm.
Honestly, who cares outside of the cost, which is in the trillions, and therein lies the shame. A few new stories on the wire tonight...

Report: Bin Laden Already Dead
The OBL yarn is eerily reminiscent of the 2008 bailout, wherein the sheep are presented with a menu of various summaries of "evidence" that somehow never manages to surface. Kanjorki's post-TARP yarn about an enormous funds draw-down leaps to mind. The timing here is as credible as the miraculous discovery of $1.0000 trillion in Afghan minerals hours before the war there became the longest in American history.
The Fox story, like Lebowski's Chinaman, is not the issue.
