They'll continue to shoot up and this will have absolutely zero effect on that.

Well I was guessing that, but every little thing now days can change the price in gas. Reportedly "Oil down in early trading after news of bin Laden's death surface..." Per Gasbuddy on facebook. That's why I was wondering, what could happen in the long run. I also don't know how you trade when the stock market is closed.


Well, if the price of a barrel of oil goes down, gas prices (usually) go down too. But it depends on how far they fall. And summer is starting, and prices usually go up anyway.

Do you really guys think that Osama bin Laden had nothing to do with CIA and was a real person that stayed behind all the bad things that happened to you ?

You'd better spend all the billions wasted for doing all the things in the middle east for feeding Africa and those of your country. But who cares about Africa ? Continue to spend the most electricity, food and natural resources of the World and inflate the other countries' economies with the dollar. I don't blame you guys, but those who stay behind all this and manipulate everything in USA and the entire world's economical and social live...

Sorry...

First, they said he actually got killed last week and was awaiting DNA results to prove it was actually him. Now, he is buried at sea?

Obama just punched his ticket to a second term.

This picture looks fake...

Absolutely. He even admitted as much. Unless someone has hard, verifiable evidence that he was in with the CIA, all the evidence points toward he did it.

It is, it's a photoshop of a regular (not dead) pic. the beard and mouth were the same, just mirrored and recolored.

EDIT: TMZ has it: http://www.tmz.com/2011/05/02/osama-bin ... raud-hoax/
