I think we all could get behind the rainbows and lollipops if they were expressed in horse terms--maybe blue ribbons and paddock cakes?

Thanks for popping in Kiltman!

KMD, I feel like you got into my head and typed out my thoughts - much better than I did. Great post and thanks for stopping by. :) It was hard for me to convey that while *I* had no desire to dance in the street I could understand why some people did, especially those in NY and DC.

I will also say that overall I am not an Obama fan but feel he deserves a lot of credit for his handling of this situation. He took a lot of risks - BIG risks - but he took them. And I'm proud and glad that he did.

I still can't believe I missed the Osama/Obama/Usama thing. I actually thought changing the spelling of the name was to say not only did the USA kill him, we have taken over his name too.

And i am just as amazed (and saddened) that some people can't find the countries where our troops are fighting right now are on the map of the world. :lonely:

if you have kiddos post a map and talk about the world and places and point to them. Make it real. Please.

Actually Copper Leaf, some of the stuff on Twitter has been hilarious! Huffington Post had a listing of the top twitter feeds from "Osama".

Actually, my understanding is Geraldo Rivera supposedly said Obama instead of "Osama is dead" I didn't see this so I can't say it's true, but it would be easy to do in the heat of the moment on live tv. Actually, arabic names do vary according to who's spelling them, and I know Kaddafi has so many variations that it drives indexers and librarians cuckoo.

I love the facebook and the twitter stuff.

:clap: :clap: :clap: I'm getting a kick out of the Pakistani government trying to make excuses about him being there for up to six years, and them not noticing-they must think we're total idiots. And the people objecting to the burial at sea can kiss my a$$. If they're lucky the Navy chaplain who presided didn't wrap him in bacon before they launched him to the sharks (I know he wouldn't but they had to do something to persuade those poor sharks to go after him).

He got a hell of better burial than the folks who died on 9/11.

And Pakistan is pissed off because the US invaded without their knowledge. Screw 'em.

BH1-Right on!

Jim Miklashevski (or however you spell it) was just on Morning Joe on MSNBC and said "Obama" instead of "Osama" talking about dead too. You think that four days later he would get it right. Another reason why I hate reporters. And he and a CNN reporter (maybe Blitzer? I'm not sure) were discussing the fact that OBL was unarmed as if that matters to anyone but reporters.

I don't care if the murdering turd was already in handcuffs and hog tied when they shot him. Actually I really find amusement in the fact (from watching way too many crime shows and reading too much detective fiction) that he apparently lived for a while judging from the amount of blood on that rug. I hope he took a while to die, and suffered horribly. And anyone who thinks they ever intended to capture him for the big show trial and the resulting terrorist actions to try to blackmail us into freeing him needs to get a clue. Before the choppers lifted off they had the burial preparations ready, and were just waiting for the guest of honor. And the prime minister or whatever Musharoff is can kiss my butt, it's too bad Seal Team Six didn't accidentally run into him also. And I can't wait for the analysis of the computer and other data storage stuff they captured-bet there are tons of information on aid and payments to so-called allies of our.

Remember the Malaysian and Pakistani troops that were in Mogadishu Somalia and were supposed to rescue our troops during Black Hawk Down? They took their sweet time getting there, and when they finally arrived they refused to take the dead, and when they were told we don't leave our dead, they reluctantly allowed the Rangers and Delta troops to load the dead on top of the personnel carriers, and load the wounded inside the personnel carriers they then closed the doors and took off, leaving our troops to jog at least a mile behind the vehicles without cover back to safety. With friends like that who needs enemies. I know that much of the hierarchy there will turn out to be allies of Al Qaeda, and many are probably filling up their overseas bank accounts with blood money. If the Pakistanis didn't have nukes then they would be in real trouble. Next time they have an earthquake they can help themselves as far as I'm concerned.
