Meet The Deathers: Andrew Brietbart Website Pushing Conspiracy Theory That Osama Might Not Be Dead
By Judd Legum at 1:40 pm


Mere hours after President Obama announced the death of Osama bin Laden, supported by incontrovertible DNA evidence, the conspiracy theorists are hard at work. Andrew Breitbart, a prominent right-wing commentator with close ties to the Republican Party and the Tea Party, is pushing the theory on his website Big Peace.

On Breitbart’s website, J. Michael Walker, suggests Obama take a number of extraordinary steps so he can “make sure is dead.” Pictures are apparently not enough. Walker asserts that he needs to be able to “walk right up to bin Laden’s corpse and view it.” More:

The free world, particularly the United States, has a right to make sure Osama bin Laden is really dead. Every American has a right to walk right up to bin Laden’s corpse and view it. We are entitled to know for a fact that the witch is dead. No shroud for dignity’s sake, please – bin Laden’s naked, bullet-riddled corpse should be put on display in lower Manhattan for all the world to see. The entire body should be digitally scanned, inside and out – and made available for everyone to take his or her own picture.

This is the article by Walker on that Breitbart site:

"Display Bin Laden’s Body At Ground Zero. Then Destroy The Al Qaeda Legacy."

1. There are more than enough "deathers" on this site.

There's no need to go out searching for them.

[Occulus]

12. I won't believe Osama is dead until I see him burned to ashes

and the ashes sown with salt.

How many times has he "died" now?

I don't care either way; he's as relevant as a week-old tuna sandwich to me (although the fact he was killed is relevant, at least in the political sense). We have far more pressing concerns than Osama these days, and all this elation and clogging of the "tubes" due to his final, absolute, we-have-his-body death only makes me wonder what they're slipping by us in DC while we're none of us looking in that direction.

2. "inside and out"?

I knew Breitbart was a perv, but... yuk.

[Dappleganger]

8. Seriously.

I don't give a rat's ass what OBL's colon looks like.

[GomezLives]

3. Toss Breitbart into the ocean with him so he can verify he's dead.

[Solomon]

9. Great suggestion.

[drm604]

4. How stupid would they have to be to fake his death?

If the U.S. were to do something that stupid, Bin Laden would then like nothing better than to make us look foolish by releasing an "I'm not dead" video.

[damntexdem]

5. And in breaking news, General Francisco Franco is still dead.

;-)

[MilesColtrane]

6. Somebody sounds...

like they really want to get their hands on a picture of a naked, dead Osama.

:yoiks:

[kick-ass-bob]

7. He wants to compare "sizes" between Osama and Saddam.

:hide:

[OHdem10]

10. Everyone needs to give this jerk, the Trump treatment.

[treestar]

11. As crazy as MIHOP

[tabatha]

13. This country has gone stark, raving mad.

What is it? the coffee?

[kenny blankenship]

18. I swear they're putting something in the LSD these days.

This is like "28 Days Later" or "The Crazies".

[spanone]

14. he needs to get together with trump....perfect pair

p.s. fuck breitbart

[applegrove]

15. Trying to sell his book.

[Cali_Democrat]

16. Quite possibly the dumbest shit I've ever read. n/t

[jmowreader]

17. Breitbart has just crossed the line into absolute irrelevance

He's dead, Andy. Deal with it.

Oh...according to your perverted reading of the Constitution, your candidate in 2008 was not a natural born citizen.
