What a leader. Wonder if it will come out that our President had actionable info on Bin Laden a few days ago, but didn’t want to upstage the Royal Wedding?

Wonder how long it will take Donald Trump to demand that the President produce Osama’s death certificate?
You think you’ve had a long night? How’d you like to be an east coast editor who at around 11pm had just finished putting together the front page and first section of tomorrow’s newspaper?

For that matter, think the oddsmakers in London and Las Vegas may have just adjusted the odds on Obama’s re-election.

Meanwhile Donald Trump told NBC, remember how I said I was quitting Celebrity Apprentrice next year for a potential campaign? Can I get back to you on that?

So much for the San Francisco Giants’ bats being the deadest thing in the news today.

Good news, bad news. My friend and great comedy writer Jerry Perisho just announced he had May 1 in the Osama bin Ladin death pool. Alas, it may have been May 2 in Pakistan.

Just posted on Craigslist?
For rent: Large mansion outside Abbottabad, Pakistan. Available for immediate occupancy. Will be in good condition once some smoke damage cleaned up and a few bullet holes patched.

Paulino, Phils top Mets in 14th
(Ronny Paulino just came off the DL, and made his second start of 2011, for the METS! And yes, the Mets won 2-1 in 14. Which many New Yorkers found as hard to believe as the U.S. killing bin Laden.)

Back to the lighter side:
“Glee” has been taking some heat from religious conservatives because of a pretty chaste kiss between two boys on the show. So where are all these conservatives during the “fantasy suites” episodes of the Bachelor/Bachelorette? (For the uninitiated, those are private “overnight dates” offered to the last three contestants in each season.)

Donald Trump said after the White House Correspondents dinner that it was “inappropriate in certain respects,” and said he spent the evening thinking about how “the American people are really suffering and we’re all having a good time.” Then the Donald got in his private jet and flew home for the rest of his weekend.

And congratulations to former Stanford pitcher Drew Storen, who picked up his fifth save of the year today against the SF Giants. Of course Storen always did look good against college level hitting.
