Osama Bin Laden is Dead!!!

So if he is dead does that make a difference in who will be elected next term?

Praise Allah! We have another martyr. Will his death end the war on terror? Doubtful

I'm guessing that the Republican party is feeling really conflicted right now. This has gotta help Obama's numbers.

Kudos to Merc. He is a former member of the unit that took bin Laden out.

Talking

Okay, guys -- Easter Hymn:

O-sa-ma is dead to-day-ay,
A-a-a-a-al-la-hu A-akbar!
Said so on the first of May-ay,
Allahu Akbar!

The wife came in and told me the news. First words out of my mouth were, "Hm. Allahu Akbar."

It's also cool that tw must shut up about "and where is bin Laden?" now. Not that that will stop him from continually demonstrating his contemptible mentality, but it's still cool.

Obama did what Bush wouldn't? Am I reading this correctly?

Must cause a real rift at the Bush/bin Laden joint family picnic.

Well I'll be goddamned. I never would have imagined he was still alive after all these years. I, for one, had been absolutely convinced he'd been quietly or accidentally killed years ago. It's amazing that he hadn't released any more videos in so long, when the slightest message from him would have surely encouraged Al Qaeda fighters around the world. The CNN article said there was no phone or internet connection to the compound he was staying at... I wonder if they were protecting him against his will, to a certain degree.

Anyway, now's as good a time as any for the fucker to die. Good job, Navy Seals.

Well put - I wholeheartedly agree.
