But, you'd think it wouldn't happen to a US Senator!
By now we all know that Osama Bin Laden was shot and killed by US Special Forces in a gun fight Sunday May 1st. In the aftermath of coverage we have learned that, for the time being, President Barack Obama has no plans to release a death photo of the terrorist leader. A step that was taken by the previous administration upon the death of Uday and Qusay Hussien back in 2003.
With no official death photo to be released that doesn't mean that there aren't "official" photos floating around the internet. Some look real others...not so much. But, you would think that a US Senator would have the best information he could before he went on TV to say that he had seen the proof and that Bin Laden was dead.
Sadly, that's not the case with Senator Scott Brown ...senator Kelly Ayotte (R-N.H.) ... or Saxby Chambliss (R-Ga.)...
You have to feel bad for these guys for looking a fool like this. You'd also have to think that the staffer who gave them the info is probably feeling even worse.
On the bright side those guys are probably taking some personal time to flesh out their resume! I just hope that the "trusted source" that the article I read wasn't referring to a link on Facebook or Twitter! (#justsaying)
