Osama Bin Laden is dead.

if this had happened a few hours ago, i would have gone into the city and down to the White House.

this whole "he was hiding in Pakistan the whole time" is indeed going to be interesting.

 

[purpleoscar]

I hope this is true.

 

[deep]

some of the FOX news panelists are framing this as an us verses them. We are winning the war against these MUSLIM extremists.

I see this more as a war against a group of terrorists.

 

[prbiker15]

My reaction is much more celebratory and more "HOLY SHIT" than when U2 debuted Zooropa in Sao Paulo.

I'd thought I never see the day. People are celebrating everywhere - I was watching the Mets vs. Phillies game too and heard chants, but I had found out two minutes after. Wonder what Obama's gonna say..

 

[martha]

i will say that i believe in neither the death penalty nor in hell, but i hope that he is burning in hell.

Me too. I won't be sorry he's dead.

Did I hear correctly that they've raised the "threat level" or whatever, in case of immediate retaliation? That would make sense.

Of course, this won't end any of our many wars, this won't magically make us safe, and we'll continue our Theater Of Security. This is the way of our world now and doesn't change a damned thing.

But still - I'm sure not sorry he's dead.

i'm so totally glad we invaded Iraq. it totally wasn't a distraction at all.

They did raise it - and I agree, I definitely don't feel sorry.

I am skeptical of many things

but I see no reason to be skeptical of this claim

Please tell me you're not being serious.

 

[corianderstem]

Quick, someone confirm - is Obama going to pre-empt the end of Celebrity Apprentice?

That is delicious.

someone is totally trump-ing Trump tonight. will anyone be talking about who got fired tomorrow? Nooo-oh.

 

[corianderstem]

Trump will try and take credit. "Osama - you're fired."

 

[LuckyNumber7]

Trump will try and take credit. "Osama - you're fired."

More like... he'll be demanding a Death Certificate.

 

[deep]

Please tell me you're not being serious.

sounds to me like you are going with the frame of thought that Buch/Cheney wanted to launch the wars in both Afghanistan and Iraq ahd because Bin laden has been aligned with the West against the USSR in their Afgan War.

Well, because of that the allegiance and alliances never blurred of changed?

And that OBL was serving Cheney the puppet master?

Already preempted here.

And I am so very ashamed I know that.

At least some conservatives are getting it:

Bin Laden Dead - By Robert Costa & Daniel Foster - The Corner - National Review Online

People... please. DROP THE POLITICS. For one lovely night, DROP THE POLITICS.

Don't treat President Obama like they would have treated President Bush.

This is an AMERICAN victory, it's our victory. Ten years, TRILLIONS of dollars, thousands of brave men and women who aren't here today... and all those innocents on 9/11.

REJOICE.

He must not be happy - after being made fun of by Obama and Seth Meyers at the Correspondents Dinner last night, now Celebrity Apprentice interrupted.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Bruce Willis killed bin Laden.

 

[financeguy]

We are so fucking screwed.

 

[trojanchick99]

This news has made me surprisinly emotional. If I weren't on my phone I'd post America Fuck Yeah.

 

[Canadiens1131]

Pakistan is going to have a lot of explaining to do. We always knew she was a dirty two-faced whore dog, but....yeah they are kinda fucked.

Is it because you think Obama will get another 4 years because of this?

People in Philly are really upset they can't watch the Celebrity Apprentice finale.

Whoever killed that bastard will be getting one hell of a pay raise.
