    Default Osama Bin Laden Is Dead

    Thanks to help from Pakistan, US forces raided his mansion in Pakistan and shot him in the head. They have his body.

    Default Bin Laden never to vist Detroit, [[shoehorn)

    I would rather have seen him tried in a US court. But this will certainly do.
    I don't want to say great news. But a moment in American history. I am glad to know he will not do any more harm directly.

    I say drag his body through the streets and let everyone take back a piece. Good work US military!!!

    A grand reason to tone down our military spending to the nth degree.

    That's kind of exciting.

    I wonder if he died on the same day as Cuban-American Terrorist Orlando Bosch [[one of "our" airline bombers, with former ties to the CIA, like so many others)...Maybe next week it'll be Gulbuddin Hekmatyar's turn, or maybe Luis Posada-Carrilles...

    Meanwhile the terrorists known as Bush-Cheney-Rumsfeld, etc. are still free.

    Anyway, can we get the hell out of A-stan now?

    Hmm, all the sources say he was in a mansion in Pakistan, but some sources are saying he was shot in the head.

    We had his DNA just in case he was in an explosion , they have his carcass so that leads me to believe
    he was killed by other means . Anyways it was quicker than the thousands of deaths he was responsible for . I would have rather had a capture and trial

    Clear victory, but i worry about retaliation. We cant go back to the way we were before 9/11, but at least justice was done for the 3000 lost

    He was just misunderstood with a troubled childhood. If only Jane Fonda or Yoko Ono could have got to him first, he could have got some counseling and become a reformed man. There are no bad people in this world, just victims. Killing is never the answer. I'm sure all liberal minded Americans will feel the same way. When is death excusable? Murder is not the answer to murder.














    in closing, i think they should burn his corpse at ground zero and let us all piss on his ashes.

    ..... or maybe that conservative minded group that can reprogram Gay people as Straight could have done their magic on him..... LOL....

    For those who didn't know, this is also the 8th anniversary of Bush's "Mission Accomplished" speech for the Iraq War.

    From what I remember... if you bury a Muslim in a coat of pig skin, and stuff pork down his throat before burial.... they can never make it to heaven..... Sounds like a good recipe for no 72 Virgins for Osama...

    For a guy who "works more than ten hours a day, six days a week" Papasito sure finds a lot of time to log on and make stuff up...

    OBL was from a very wealthy family in a very conservative country [[Saudi Arabia). [[Saudi Arabia has been very effective in spreading their form of ultra conservative Islam to other countries in the world). OBL gave up his life of comfort to go fight the commies in Afghanistan, and was one of our "key allies" in the struggle against girls attending school, er, communism. These people were of course, Muslim Fanatics, but they were hailed as "The Moral Equivalent of our Founding Fathers" not by Yoko Ono, but by the Reagan crowd [[and by Charlie Wilson).

    Ronald Reagan warned us about people who said "We're from the government and we're here to help you"...yet that was his message to the Muslim Fanatics....Perhaps it would have been cheaper and wiser to not meddle in the affairs of Afghanistan. Anyway, it's nice that this ultra conservative fanatic is finally dead..
    Now, anybody seen that other former recipient of millions of our tax dollars, Gulbuddin Hakmatyar?

    Ding Dong! The Wicked Witch is dead.
    • Wake up - sleepy head, rub your eyes, get out of bed.
