Commentary from the Examiner’s Beltway Confidential blog:

Michael Barone – Any political fallout from Obama’s Osama success?

Good for Barack Obama for authorizing this apparently high-risk raid right some 100 meters from Pakistan’s military academy. And shame on whatever forces in Pakistan connived in allowing bin Laden this refuge—and whose connivance made it prudent for Obama not to inform the Pakistan government in advance about the raid.   Read More
