Congratulations, Osama bin Laden is dead. Oh, happy day!!! It took you long enough. Bin Laden was on the run for so long that his compound, on the outskirts of Abbotlabad turned into a suburb. Who says you don`t go to the suburbs to die? That`s how he finally got caught, his neighbors started complaining because they burned their garbage instead of taking it to the curb like everyone else. I suppose the excuse, “Don`t worry, their just bibles.” can only carry you for so long.
And man, did you see those pictures!? No really, did anyone see any photos? I didn`t see one single photo of the body before it was dumped, conveniently, into the ocean “according to Islamic tradition”. Call me paranoid, but my political BS radar spikes when big news like this breaks at the dawn of election season. Had I been anywhere near the killing of, the removal or the disposal of Osama bin Laden`s body, I`d have taken more photos than a Chinese tourist. Yet the only picture that`s surfaced is a bloody bedroom that could have been taken after any Motley Crue concert during the 80`s.
Good timing Barry!! God (and Allah) only knows what really happened, but if you got Rush Limbaugh and G.W. congratulating you, they must not be able to deny that he is really dead. He may have died from a heat stroke after living in a semi air-conditioned mansion for the last 5 years or from the stress of “running” from those bad @ss Pakistani officials who`ve been “hunting you down” like a deer hunts out a lion, but it looks like you get to tell the story however you want to. Good on you!
The one thing I`d really like to see laid to rest once and for all is the non-stop media coverage that, if I`m not mistaken, started on 9/11 and ended about 3 weeks later. Since 9/11, anytime there is a disaster anywhere in the world, the precedence has been laid down that it`s FULL COVERAGE, 24 hours a day for at least a week. I realize Katrina, Haiti, Japan and other big news stories are important but it`s a big world out there and other stories need to be told. Not to mention whoever may be in the HOT SEAT at the time who get a total free pass. Was Sarah Palin not just saying something really newsworthy stupid? Was there not a senator accused of murdering an intern or something right before 9/11 that got totally forgotten about? Let`s not let these timing lottery winners off the hook so easily.
So if Osama bin Laden really was killed in the way it is being told in the media, than good for you Obama. It shows you have some balls after all, now go paint the White House black and make us all proud.
