Sen. Dianne Feinstein, chairwoman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, related the news to mourners at a memorial service for political consultant Kam Kuwata. Feinstein said Obama was announcing it on TV as she spoke. However, she announced the news well before Obama began to speak.

Here are some positive repercussions, and this is within an hour after the announcement.

Congragulations to the people who carried out this Operation! This is truly a happy day in American History.

We should make their nailing of OBL a National Holiday.

This must have been a really interesting op. Would love to hear about the details one day. According to an anchor on CNN, it was a Helicopter raid of US SEAL's, which only took about 40 mins.

I'm sure more info will be released as time goes by.

What a day!

Congrats and thanks to those who gave all!

Don't bury his ass. Hang him from the Statue of Liberty, throw some slabs of bacon on him and let the flies do their worst.

Please don't waste delicious bacon like that! Cover him in lard, that is just as good.

About 100 km from Islamabad. Thank you to the men who got him.
I know I will not meet them, but some of you will. Thank them from us, the American public.

Treat his body with respect. I am sure the professionals who killed him treated his body with equal parts of disdain and respect. We are better than them and it is time to show it.

We should send his body to Saudi Arabia well taken care of (minus a couple dozen holes) as a two part message:

1) We are better than you and always will be

2) Don't fuck with the U.S.A!
