He was like Carlos the Jackal his day was over.
Of course it matters. Obama now has street cred on the terror front.
This gives Obamao perfect ammunition to pull out of Afghanistan. After 10 years and with no end in sight, IMHO that wouldn't be all bad. Let the moslem vermin build up again and then go in and nuke them next time around once they're more concentrated or even attempt to try anything. History has not been kind to any power that attempts to stay in Afghanistan for any extended period of time.
Saddam: dead. Osama: dead. Want to cross the United States?
Someone needs to pour cold water on Geraldo.
Matter? Yes it does matter. It matters in several ways.
1. AlQaeda will increase its activity against the United States.
2. bin Laden will be hailed as a martyr throughout the Islamic world.
3. Obama will try to take credit for it. Watch how many times he says “I” instead of “we” in his announcement.
4. The left will declare the end of the war on terror.
5. Trump will be pissed off that the networks interrupted Celebrity Apprentice. (I guarantee that was no accident.)

Get Al Zawahiri and you’ve done something.
Well, I don;t feel any safer. Franky, I think the last ten years have seen much of the terrorism we need to be concerned with move from places like Pakistan and Afghanistan to places like Brooklyn and Detroit
For one thing, we won’t be hearing about how it was an inside job any more.
You can’t take credit for killing a bad guy, if he wasn’t a bad guy.
It does matter, IMO, because it shows a continuity of purpose on the part of America across two political administrations of opposite parties. It shows that it is possible to have our government keep their attention on something for more than a few news cycles.
It is also significant that we killed him. If we had “brought him to justice,” oh the theatrics that would have ensued. He needed to be dead.
The only way this could have been better is if they could him in a whorehouse eating bacon.
Mission accomplished; now sterilize all poppy fields and get out of Afghanistan.
Let us start a deather movement, now that the birthers have been compromised.
Osama being dead somehow entitles you to blog hits?
