His death is pointless. Somebody has probably already taken over his insufferable regime and continue to express the enmity Al Qaeda feels towards America. His death is ten years too late. All this does is give grounds to overzealous patriots for celebration.

I'm not phased and I certainly don't care. We'll still be having a war with more dead soldiers and more taxes gone.

Yeah, no worries man. I just hate how if you take a different opinion than the MB clique you're somehow an *******.

I just defend my positions harshly. I bark, but I don't bite

I'm hearing that Pakistani helicopters may have helped out during the operation. Even if Pakistan didn't do it from the bottom of their hearts they still had a part.

Yeah sorry man, I edited my original post. Its choppy (no pun intended) right now. You might be right though, Pakistan is on the way up.

I'm in no clique, you have to have some level of popularity to be in a clique.

When I see constructive, positive results of this event, I will concede that it was an endeavor worth calling an accomplishment. For the time being, however, I don't consider it a cause for celebration. I consider this counting chickens before they've hatched.

First of all, it was more than saying "god bless america". It was a string of several Christian comments that the leader of my allegedly secular nation made at the end of his speech. I spent eight years dealing with a warmongering, fundamentalist Christian ass in the white house and voted for Obama because I wanted an alternative to that. When I see him behaving in exactly the same way as Bush it is, most definitely, a case of shitting in my face. And, honestly, do you really think that it makes any sense to end a speech which contained declarations of "we are not at war with Islam" with a bunch of Christian-themed platitudes? Sounds like a good way to undermine one's own speech to me.
