I heard the news early this morning while I was driving to work. Man, I was delighted! We need to get Osama next.
Why not do it to all of him? After he's shown on every news network beheaded!!!!!!!!
Yes. When I saw his comment on the armchair poster I clicked on dov12348 to find that poster banned.
Good day all around.
Nice. House of cards, eh.
Oh, then you will have to take over for me, tonight, because I am the walking dead, today, due to being up sooooooooooooooo late. :-)
Get another bottle and lay it down for when we get Zawahiri and bin Laden.
Enjoy the moment now!!
We'll have a really big feast when they get bin Laden and Zawahiri.
Right now, my pork chops and asparagus are ready.
Already sampled the cherry pie a la mode and the sparkling apple cider.
Enjoy the moment!
Cheers!
yep, heh!
I'm enjoying every minute. Good to see you, Patricia.
We need to celebrate every good news we get.

To all liberals, RATs, DUmbasses, bedwetters and hand-wringers: I'm glad Al-Z is dead. I revel in his death. I'm ecstatic about it. I hope all of his fellow terrorists, family, friends, high school classmates, chat room buddies, pen pals, creditors, spiritual advisors, admirers, proteges, mentors, even his pets,.......meet the same or worse end.
I saw that #2501; he is zotted! LOL
I wondered the same thing when I saw that picture. There are other pics with Iraqis wondering through the debris.
As T.E. Lawrence said, one of the keys to defeating an insurgency is to eliminate the leaders. Those left alive won't have as much expertise and knowledge to run the group. They will make more mistakes and bumble around more, making them more vulnerable.
The military should be praised for nailing this guy.
There is a difference between dissent from others on the right and letting the forum be overrun by those on the left.
The "morons at DU" would like nothing better than to be given free rein here. Because they are smart enough to know that when they overrun a forum, they scatter and demoralize their opposition.
You don't know as much about psyops as I thought you did.
In fact, the opposition is far from being composed of morons. They are running a very tidy campaign of divide and conquer the conservatives now. And the "morons" were winning last time I checked.
Just had our celebration dinner. :-)
Hubby went out and got pork chops and asparagus spears.
The cherry pie a la mode was just for fun.
Our champagne was sparkling apple cider.
