Not stopping him was proof that Bush failed in Iraq. Stopping him was a bad decision.
I get it.
More good than harm. A LOT MORE GOOD.

Yeah, but as usual, those proclamations come from the losers.
Exactly. Only ABC (well, maybe not "only") would characterize the death of this monster as a bad thing.
Only a terrorist or their Fellow Travelers would think so.
I'm surprised that ABC let someone beat them to those "ominous words."
200 million more of you are going to die violently, without having achieved your goals, particularly since you'll never learn to properly fire a gun? All right then. :)

They don't quite have the guts to say it. The question mark in the title is their little insurance policy. If anybody gripes, they claim they were only asking the question. Bunch of crap.
They've been doing it all day on the radio. Highlighting the "father of one of his victims' and lamenting the inclusion of Zarqawi's ..."spiritual advisor" in the hit.
I tell you, the MSM loves to turn good news into bad news. When it comes to the USA and Bush they just love to bring to make them look bad.
The MSM is bummed out that ANY enemy of Bush has been eliminated.
What, did we make them angry? I think they were already angry.
I look at it this way: Zark was the first pick to run the Al Quaida operation in Iraq because he was probably the best man for the job in one way or another. Is Iraq in Al Quaida going to get another leader? Yeah. But it'll be their second pick. In some way or another, he won't be as good at what he does as Zark was. We might see more infighting in the insurgent ranks. We might see more poorly-trained insurgents. We might see more insurgents cracking and talking immediately rather than shut their mouths and opt for a few years in Gitmo.
One way or another, this made things worse for Al Quaida. Killing leaders does that to organizations.
Actually it's good to hear the many "moderate" Muslim voices who reveal that Al-Zarqawi's barbaric brand of terror was just fine with them... Helps to counter the false impressions that CAIR and others like them have been pushing...
Wishful thinking by the Rats. Recruiting is going to take a nosedive.
The flypaper strategy has been working, much to the MSM's utter dissapointment
It's not like al-Zarqawi produced "The DiVinci Code". Was he really that bad of a guy?
Sadly, that needn't have gone all the way to the Arab world to find this kind of sentiment.
They could have just contacted a few folks on Capitol Hill and gotten virtually identical quotes.
Not for ABC, they are crying in their lattes.
