At CIA headquarters in Virginia today, Rep. Michele Bachmann viewed photos of the late Osama bin Laden who was killed in a U.S. military raid in Pakistan and confirmed his identity. “I am convinced that this was Bin Laden,” she said, according to the Star Tribune. “We got our man.”
A member of the House Intelligence Committee, Bachmann is among a small number of legislators who got a chance to see the documentation.
“While these photos provide certainty of bin Laden’s identity,” the Sixth District Republican said, “I also believe the best evidence of bin Laden’s identity is found through the release of the terrorist’s DNA match.”
She reiterated the point in a tweet an hour ago:
Because of his role on the House Armed Services Committee, Rep. John Kline was also invited, but declined.
“I have absolute confidence that he is dead, and looking at the picture doesn’t make him any deader,” Kline said, in a report by the Strib’s Kevin Diaz.
President Barack Obama has decided not to release the photos publicly, a move backed by a majority of Americans, according to a recent NBC poll.

We can all breath a sigh of relief. The Queen has pronounced him dead. Hasn’t the world been waiting for her proclamation??

So she accepts the same DNA science that proves humans and apes have a common ancestor? Careful Michele, your hypocrite is showing.
Praise Jebus, God hates empiricism, Amen.

Bachmann was not nor will she ever be in The Situation Room of The White House. SO she has NO claim to “We” got our man. Man up Michelle and give credit where the actual credit is due, President Barack Obama!

What a ghoul. I’m shocked that she, like doubting Thomas, didn’t insist on sticking her fingers in his wounds.

Did she ask to see the Death Certificate (long-form, preferably with a raised seal)?
