    That look on Obama's face when he was approaching the microphone was priceless.

    It was the look of "I'm going to make the greatest announcement ever!"

    And, why you never tell Congress anything that you don't want to leak out:

    markknoller -- Mark Knoller

    The story of bin Laden's death began leaking out as Administration officials informed key members of Congress & others.

    That was a well-done speech. He did it right and didn't try to politicize it, even sighted Bush positively at one point there.

    Wonder how much lead time his writers had to help him craft the speech.

    I would LOVE to see an in-depth documentary on how this all happened and, particularly, video and/or photos of Obama giving the order and the room's reaction when it succeeded.
