Are any "proofers" coming out of the woodworks yet?

Just curious, I haven't been keeping tabs on the wingnuts lately & how they're reacting to Bin Laden's death. Are any of them demanding pics, video, or a death certificate?

1. As always, there's someone doing anything you can imagine,

and this is no exception. They're out there, for sure, and even a few here. It's never a surprise to discover that some people don't believe anything the government has to say. That's not limited to any particular political side.

2. You're right, those 9/11 families who want to see proof OBL is dead for closure are just gore hounds

From Osama Bin Laden's Death Picture Readied for Release

President Obama and national security officials are considering releasing a photo of Osama bin Laden's corpse today, a source told ABC News.

Obama will head to Ground Zero Thursday to meet with 9/11 families. Some of those families think seeing photos of bin Laden might help their healing. Other parts of the world have also asked to see the photos for proof that the master terrorist is dead.

3. I can understand them wanting to see proof.

I'm referring to people who would think more along the lines of "Obama's approval rating is tanking & this is a conspiracy to ensure he'll be re-elected in 2012."

4. Links to anyone who said that on DU, at all, or this is bullshit.

And then let me know how long ago you alerted on their post.

5. I never said anyone on DU was claiming to be a proofer.

As I said, I'm talking about people such as Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh fans.

6. Partisanship Never Takes A Day Off

As some have pointed out, had this happened under the boooosh regime, DU would have been full of "bullshit" threads demanding proof. No surprise that those who think this administration is doing this for its politican gain are doing all they can to diminish and refute what's happened. This is especially the case with the great unhinged who can't accept this President's legitimacy yet alone that he's accomplished something.

While I'm not big on them releasing pictures it is a necessary evil to prove this murderer is dead and that he hasn't escaped again. Those who want to believe this is all a hoax will continue to do so, and those who are "outraged" will also never be placated. But in this case, who cares. The majority in this country are relieved that this murderer can no longer be a direct threat to the U.S. and the rest of the world. If this is "grave dancing" then so be it.
