Donuel "( Whadduya think?   Did I capture the correct tone and "facts" the Republican media is currently spewing?)"

Yeah, pretty much.

BTW, I don't fault anyone for saying "Obama" when they mean "Osama." The names virtually invite spoonerisms (e.g., Obama Sin Laden). I myself even initially posted the news on my Facebook page that "Obama is dead. Obama to address the nation shortly."
(Fortunately, unlike Mudcat & other sites, Facebook lets you delete your own posts, so I caught my mistake almost immediately and corrected it.)
But how do you get from "Osama" or "Osama Bin Laden" to "PRESIDENT Obama?"???
