1 year and look for the rally of the century for the stock markets.

Obama and Oprah are going to take down radical Islam.

Osama Bin Laden died in an American bombing of his cave hideout over five years ago but fake CIA audio tapes have kept him alive probably under the pretense of national security during wartime by the Bush Administration.

Learning this, Obama will of course not undermine the public's trust in government by revealing it but instead manufacture Osama's demise when it suits his purposes, probably in the middle to latter half of his first term, to go into election year with that under his belt, to aid his re-election. Bush would have, but needed Osama more as a poster boy of the threat to America at the time.

If you think that's farfetched as a possibility, then you haven't read the *beep* that even those who were involved have admitted to in American political history.

Can you be more specific?

I'm choosing not to vote because Osama is irrelevant and no one cares about finding him anymore.

Catching Osama will be the beginning of the end of Islamic fundamentalism. If you don't agree with this statement then you believe that Bush's war in Iraq has defeated IF.

That's not true.

For whatever reason, BUSH, conservatives and those in the dominant right-wing media had NO interest whatsoever in finding Osama. I don't even want to begin to speculate why not, but they just have never been interested in him.

But among the Democrats, and particularly the many who were silenced quite well in the media, the administration, etc....Osama has always been a 'hey, we need to focus on THAT guy' kind of thing.

I don't know if you follow politics at all or not, but one of Obama's focus is to move troops OUT of Iraq, and INTO Afghanistan - where the war SHOULD have been all along.

Afghanistan and Osama Bin Ladin are SUPPOSE to be the focus...but we just got seriously sidelined with George W Bush and his oil-interests and Iraq venture...just because Bush has FINALLY gone away, doesn't mean that Osama Bin Ladin has or will, that still needs to be addressed.

Iraq will become one of the greatest countries in the world because of Bush.

Winning the war on terror is winning the war on a mindset. Democracy in the middle east in the main reason why this war has been won.

How can you say nobody cares when there are so many of us on this website who have spent so much time looking for bin Laden in the bars in Itaewon and elsewhere in east Asia?

Which goes to show that the Democrats are only slightly less clueless than the Republicans. If they really believe that (here's to hoping they're playing crass politics with that meme)..

It isn't about Osama. He could die tomorrow: he's accomplished what he needed to accomplish.

Within 8 years of oprah/obama mania the middle east is going to look vastly different. Fundamentalism of any kind, other than secularism/buddhism will be not tolerated.

Oprah mania is already starting to change the cultures of the middle east. Obama mania will only accelerate this trend.
