So we killed some anonymous guy who none of us had ever heard of, who was running a terrorist group with about 50 members that none of us had ever heard of, who was imminently, devastatingly, at any moment, going to execute another attack on the homeland.

Yea, Obama!

My grand kids” believe” in the tooth fairy. Im telling you this is contrived to give obama a lie to rely on that “there was an emminent threat” to this blatantly unconstitutional and illegal attack on a sovereign nation.3 Weeks agothe chairman of the joints Chiefs said clearly and loudly “ THERE IS NO IMMEDIATE THREAT...” Which is it?

Gee, has he sleeping in that building as the raid took place in the dead of night? Couldn’t we have taken out more of these terrorists if we bombed the crap out of them during working hours? Too bad we are so PC and not willing to bomb the local mosque during prayer time.

Fadhli was mentioned in a 2005 speech by President Bush, and ...

The United States has moved to freeze assets of a Kuwaiti man suspected of raising money for an anti-American insurgency in Iraq and financing a 2002 bombing of a French tanker off the coast of Yemen. An executive order issued by the Treasury Department designated Muhsin al-Fadhli supporter of terrorism and instructed US financial institutions to freeze all assets he might have in the country. The administration of President George W. Bush will also ask the United Nations to add Fadhli to a list of known terrorists tied to Osama bin Laden's Al-Qaeda network and the deposed Taliban radical Islamic movement that ruled Afghanistan until late 2001, Treasury officials said.

BINGO! I’m with you. Why the hell aren’t we bombing mosques when they are full and cutting Imam throat’s? If we bomb the Madrassa’s and kill the Imam’s teaching this crap maybe we could convince some of these idiots to calm down. If we bomb the schools and kill the teachers, we would be decades ahead of the coming blood bath. IMO, this is a perpetual war till Jesus comes.

Believing it doesn’t make it so.

Besides another one will just pop up.

-------------------------------->

Just routinely announce so and so leader has been killed. Put the jackasses in a spin - taking more time to prove so and so is still alive.

Each time indisputable proof is given that so and so is still alive, announce another "leader" is killed and have a photoshop fakery to prove that so and so terrorist has been killed.

Lather. Rinse. Repeat.
