A Moment of Unity

In the wake of OBL's death, I don't mind if Obama and the Dems try to take some partisan advantage. In fact, I hope they do. I'm very much of a mind that the Republicans did it 10 years ago, so why shouldn't we. That's very much in the mold of the hardball politics I'd like to see outta my Party. But I'm willing to bet that Obama and the Dems won't use this occasion to cherry-pick some intelligence so that they can send the government into take over a country that has zero to do with OBL or muslim extremism. Just sayin'.

Zero to do with OBL, huh? From wikileaks via the Telegraph:

The file suggests that the courier’s identity was provided to the US by another key source, the al-Qaida facilitator Hassan Ghul, who was captured in Iraq in 2004 and interrogated by the CIA. Ghul was never sent to Guantanamo but was believed to have been taken to a prison in Pakistan.

Now, I'll freely admit wikileaks is not a perfect source, but if this is accurate, you may want to reconsider.
