The bin Laden situation deteriorates further

  By now it's pretty clear. Is this administration competent or devious or both? 
  Um. Both.
  The whole Osama killing is proving to be more of a boondoggle than ever imagined.
  Now we learn that there was no video feed, after being told there was, of the real time action. What could motivate this administration's toadies to give one incorrect detail after another?
  The Telegraph has a list of 10 mistakes. Here's one:

4. Too much information was released, too quickly and a lot of it was wrong. When it made the administration look good, the information flowed freely. When the tide turned, Jay Carney, Obama’s spokesman, clammed up completely. I’m a journalist; I like it when people talk about things. But from the administration’s perspective, it would have been much better to have given a very sparse, accurate description of what happened without going into too much detail, especially about the intelligence that led to the compound (an account which is necessarily suspect).

  Gateway Pundit via Melissa Clouthier has a list of 27 contradictions. Here's part of it:

Usually when governments use misinformation, they use it to make themselves look good.  The Obama Administration gets points for originality, insofar as it’s been using disinformation and misinformation to make itself look arbitrary, unlawful, helpless and stupid.  Here’s jj’s great summary:

Okay, what do we have here:

1) There was a firefight.

2) There was no firefight.

3) Bin Laden was “resisting.”

4) Bin Laden wasn’t armed.  (Makes the concept of “resisting” interesting.)

[4.a) And the newest one: the SEALS thought bin Laden was reaching for a weapon.]

5) He used his wife as a shield.

6) His wife was killed too.

7) He didn’t use his wife as a shield.  She ran at a SEAL who shot her in the leg, but she’s fine.

8 ) Some other woman — the maid? — was used as a shield.  By somebody.  Downstairs.

9) That other woman — downstairs — was killed.

10) Maybe not.  She was killed unless she wasn’t — and who was she, anyway?

11) Bin Laden’s son was killed.

12) Unless it was some other guy.

  More over there. What's hard to understand is WHY this is happening. The American people support this military action wholeheartedly. Why is there so much confusion about what actually happened if the people sitting in this picture were watching it happen? If the feed was actually dropped for 25 minutes, wouldn't the intel coming in to this group of people still have been accurate? Wouldn't they all be getting the same story?

  Then in this video, Panetta stumbles, hesitates, makes a point to call Obama "gutsy" for the decision Obama supposedly made. Why? 

  No one even cares how bin Laden died.

  But now administration officials are fumbling around trying to explain why bin Laden was killed, not carrying a weapon or capture attempted.

  Since the American public is comfortable with what happened, why all the backpeddling?

  Is it because the left is angry over what happened? That they are declaring bin Laden was "executed"? 

  The rumor is that the administration is angry

  Just because Obama used every tactic that Bush had instated as part of the War on Terror, does that mean Obama has verified the legitimacy of their use?

  Or is Whoopi Goldberg's endorsement of enhanced interrogation techniques rattling the administration?

  I still think we should have given Khalid Sheikh Mohammed a book deal.

  Yeah. THAT would have revealed lots of valuable information.
