And waving our red weapons o'er our heads
Let's all cry 'Peace, Freedom, Liberty!'

Bin Laden Death No Less Than An Execution (Short Clip)
As the WH/Pentagon/CIA tie themselves in knots trying to outdo each other in their game of deceit, the story and the spin continue to change by the hour.
Not surprised that the U.S. government, after executing such a military raid, still finds itself overwhelmed by the political aftermath. Fitting military operations into a grand political strategy remains a prime weakness in the Obama administration's foreign policy. Although some preparation was held on bin Laden's body, the photos and releasing the story, other evidence suggests the White House/Pentagon/CIA didn't think the problem through to its final end.
