3 cheers for the President and our troops!

Well, the deed has been done. It's about to be announced that they got Osama Bin Laden. At least I think it's Osama. Heraldo called him Obama Bin Laden.  Hahaha.  And then, the Fox News station has it up on screen as Usama Bin Laden.  Sheesh. As long as they got him. 3 cheers for the President and our troops!

Just read a comment on a blog that we should henceforth celebrate May 1st with pork products and cheap alcohol (to which I would add entertainment by immodest women) . . . 
Here's hoping the islamists who danced in the streets on 9/11 see the videos of the celebrations that sprang up in front of the White House and at Ground Zero tonight . . .

Hmmm...I'm not convinced that OBL did a lot.  More of a figurehead really.  Losing him is a blow but essentially changes little.  I won't misss him though :-)

The U.S. got him. Can't we just be happy he's dead? Not everything need a caveat. He's dead. And that IS A GOOD THING!

Glad to see Obama had it in him to issue the order to send troops into a foreign country and take the bastard out. I can only wish the burial at sea is a farce and they have him in a hole somewhere interrogating him relentlessly!

I was wandering the same thing. I hope that he was "played" with before the shot and that the pictures were to bad for public. I hope that is the reason for not having any more proofs of the killing.

Now we have to wait and see who is going to be the next in line and how crazy he is

body dumped at sea. . great, so he will eventually be in our drinking water. . should really have put his body in a cannon and fired it at a crowd of his "followers". . .I would pay money to see that, pay-per-view style. . .tell them it's free hooker day at the ol' market place and then BAM -take that suckers. . .but really, could not have been a better way to end a weekend. . .

I understand you all have something to say about the subject, but to be in line with the life style of this forum, we do not want to have this head down a path into a political debate and history schooling. It was a public announcement and just need to keep it as such.

Thanks

I think this would qualify as a special occasion. We all know somebody that has been killed in either 9/11 or killed in the ensuing war.

I actually know no one.  Which is amazing and lucky.
But I know a lot of Iowans have died in the war.  Luckly the people I know have been safe.

Rumor has it he went for a midnight swim . . .
