Dunno about whether our rats will go into mourning - not sure they're emotionally capable. They'll probably spend a couple of days with focus groups and polls to see what they should do.
As for our future course of action: You nail the leaders last. Cutting the head off the snake doesn't necessarily work with this type of organization, so you start by carving out the belly (lower management), lungs (middle management), and spine (top managment). THEN you go and take the helpless head.
I congratulate the troops on this remarkable achievement GWB just now on t.v.
