    I wonder how many takes Obama will need to run his victory lap at Ground Zero tomorrow for the optimal media photo?

    The only bigger trophy for Obama would if he had a football with OBL's face on it and spiked it into the ground.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    President Obama was pretty big on stagecraft at Harvard. Which more people would know if his college records and transcripts were made public.

    Seems like the Situation Room photo was staged as well, at least according to Leon Panetta.

    As I said, only the Obama Administration could botch the aftermath of killing Osama bin Laden.

    Ridicule and sarcasm seem to be the only verbal weapons you're left with these days.

    Alinsky would be proud.

    You've got to wonder why there was a photographer in the situation room in the first place.

    "Hey you, Mr. President. Yeah, you, the guy wearing the golf shirt with the wind-breaker over it that we just pulled off of the golf course. You go sit on that upside down garbage can in the corner while this historic assassination is happening. Let's leave the open laptops and the real chairs for Gates, Hillary, Biden, and that gray-haired guy!"

    Oh my god! The president posed for pictures!

    This is unknown in the annals of history, a shocking, shocking discovery.

    Is that a "it's Bush's fault" thing, or a "it's OK because Bush did it too" thing?

    When Obama promised to have transparency in his administration, I don't think this is what we had in mind.

    So if the same intelligence community that found and killed OBL is against releasing the photo they should because some people think they should?

    All Presidential photos are staged. It's always been that way.

    They always photoshopped the horns out of Bush's photos too.
