NDP deputy leader doubts bin Laden photos exist

Didn't take long for the first miscue in the official opposition.

Actually I think the first one belonged to Ruth Brosseau. And the second and now possably the third. This one is way down the list.

I imagine there'll be lots. Kind of exciting really. Should be lots of fireworks in the next little while.

LOL! And Mulcair's one of the 'experienced NDP veterans' who's going to teach the noobs. Between stupidity like this and Libby Davies tabling a 9/11 Truther document in the House it looks like the barely-concealed anti-American bullshit in the NDP is going to go quickly from 'slowly simmering' to 'boiling over'. This ought to be hilarious over the next four years. Harper's probably laughing his ass off right now at how easy the Dippers are going to make this thing for him.

Just when I was starting to like the NDP ...

As far as photos go they do exist. If we have pictures of his bedroom with a huge blood spatter on the carpet I'm absolutly certain that the photos before they moved the body were there as well as the video.

There are also the autopsy photos that the Navy surgeons took aboard the USS Carl Vinson will show Osama Bin Laden in the best possible light, ie, dead. It will be the biggest hit since Saddam Hussein's execution on youtube(yes there is a goulish element in this).

Is Mr Mulacair suggesting that this wasn't a "fair fight" and that OBL wasn't holding a weapon as he was cowering behind one of his wives skirts? Who Cares?

I may be wrong but there were some Candians killed in 9-11. That certainly wasn't a fair fight.

I, like a lot of other people, want to see pictures of OLB dead.

A far as the "Full Analysis" of it being a fair fight I think he is still drunk from his election victory party, then again everyone is entitled to a brain fart every once in a while.

We Americans wouldn't want it to be a fair fight. We want him dead with no Navy SEALs dead. More than enough people died because of him including Canadians.

I've followed the antics of the NDP for years. Behind that see-thru curtain of pathetically sanctimonious touchy-feely crap they endlessly project lies a hard steel core of genuine hatred for the United States, and not just in an ideological sense but in an existential one as well. That you can find prominent Dippers like Mulcair and Davies engaging in Trutherism and sympathy for Bin Laden is no major surprise at all. It'd actually be a far greater surprise if someone polled the NDP one day and didn't find that the great majority among their rank-and-file also fully believe this sort of nauseating nonsense as well.

Yup

At least she is nice to look at.

I for one believe the official story, but I must admit understanding the idea that bin Laden is still alive; in custody, but alive. Dead men tell no tales, and I'm sure the U.S. wants al-Quaeda to think their secrets are still safe.

Isn't speculation and inuendo grand? Especially when, by virtue of your position as official opposition you have a real live audience and continuents who actually voted for you.

Where the fuck did they find this guy.

Oh well it'll be back to 9 seats in the house for the NDP next election when Quebec discovers they voted for a gaggle of maroons who can't do anything for them.

I'm not sure what the official story is anymore,

I think, just for the sake of tactics, that arresting him would have been better for the Americans. I'm sure he wouldn't be very helpful, but it'd have to be more helpful than a corpse. He's just a human being - he's not any more 'dangerous' than anyone else can be so I don't think that killing him immediately was the 'best' approach to this. Effective, certainly. Some information may be gone forever though.

Perhaps the Americans figured he had nothing special in his little head.
As long as his body, dead or alive, is in custody, the rest is unimportant. It would have been nice to see him in a Manhattan courtroom though.
