I think that the French person who leaked the Bin Laden memo wanted to avoid seeing Bush use the news as some form of "October Surprise" or take credit for his death...  Typhoid Fever doesn't look like death by a patriotic fighter to me!

I too heard about Karl Rove boasting about an October surprise, but now that somebody stuck a pin in the 'we killed Bin Laden' balloon, howzabout nuking Iran??? We may wish Bin Laden had stayed alive, at least in theory.

Why is this not the main headline on CBC.ca?

It's all kinds of unconfirmed at this point, which is why it's not top news, although it was quite prominent on most news sites on Saturday...
