Is someone equating the purchase power of $50 from 30 years ago to now. Wow..

Does it really matter? If Pak said they did it, they are going to take the heat from their Bin Laden supporters. If Pak said they didn't do it, they are also going to take the heat by having a foreign country carrying military action in their soil.
