And neither do your policies, Janet From Another Planet. What the bleepin’ FReep are Yemeni immigrant men doing on our airplanes? If we can’t keep them out of the country entirely, let them walk where they’re going. (Isn’t that the “green” solution?”

NOT going there to read as I have to get offline NOW, but it looks like, as in first impression from what little I read in excerpt a typical thoughtless screwup on the part of a typical Lib NOT thinking before shooting ones mouth off.

Perhaps Napolitano will be havin’ a beer with the Obamaster very soon.

So Big Sis doesn’t think there isn’t a huge psychological impact on the terrorists, especially since they thought bin Laden was hidden safely away out of reach of the Great Satan. Then comes the shock of knowing that the Great Satan also has all the note, plans and and possibly names lists of all of their operations. If the US can now start capturing and/or killing the rest of their leadership. Personally, I think the bad guys took a collective crap in their pants when they realized that bin Laden became and ex-terrorist.

It doesn’t originate with me; I picked it up from one or more other FReeprs.

Precisely.

Wars are fought on both strategic and psychological battlefields. This one in particular, since our enemy can only win on the latter. All along, we've needed to display our anger, and lack of fear.

The question in war is never did this or that action make you safer, but did putting a bullet in the head of the symbolic and operational leader of your enemy cause potential replacements to think twice about attacking us again?

So I started looking through your posting history. Here's what I found:

1. You always post from the same blog. You never post anything else.
2. You post the shortest possible excerpts. Often you don't even post an entire sentence.
3. You post from your blog in News/Activism instead of Bloggers/Personal. Often the Mods correct that for you.
4. I went back five pages (2009) before I found where you had replied to anyone on any thread ever.

You may possibly be the pimpinest blog pimp I've ever seen. Oh, and if you actually work for The Blaze, tell Pat Gray that not only has he led Glenn into a cult but also ruined his shows. Good luck.
