Gotta admit some of the celebrating bothered me in that it looked more like the kids were trying to get their few seconds of fame in front of the cameras. Think about it. Would college kids actually celebrate bin Ladens death? I seriously doubt it. They`re probably in mourning of his passing.

Flashmob kids encourged to get out in the street for the Obama show.

Give them a few weeks and they’ll be figuring out that the war isn’t over.

Democrats...This is in support of Obama....Only thing that makes sense.

And the new mosque will be just around the corner and with Obama's Muslim blessing.

That was my impression as well as I watched youngsters in front of the White House mugging for the camera.

I wonder, did he cringe when muslims celebrated the fall of the twin towers?

Most of them were 20 yr. olds who have known him as our enemy for half their lives. Understandable.

I’m impressed how many actually know the words to “God Bless America”.

Was Petula just as upset at seeing our soldiers hanging from bridges, being dragged behind cars, beheaded, not counting airplanes flying into the Trade Center. Were Muslims insisting our soldiers were to be buried with reverence with in 24 hours?

Something did not feel right about the flash mob in front of the White House. They were mostly white college kids. I know a lot of those types and the ones I know are just not plugged in to the Bin Laden thing. Bring up his name and most will look at you puzzled.

Something smells and it is not Bin Laden’s corpse which word has it was dumped in the ocean? The ocean? Huh?

Nothing is cut and dried about Obama. Nothing. This is all so strange. I hope the military clears the air and gives up facts, photos, etc.

I was proud to see young Americans celebrating the death of one of our greatest enemies. I would have liked to have seen millions, of all ages, celebrating and showing the Jihadists what we think of their “leader”.

It bothered my daughter and I as well. I felt very solemn and some vindication as if a bit of justice was meted out but not jubilant. I wondered if I/we were alone in this feeling. It seemed odd almost like I was viewing something from the middle east, except the burning effigy were missing.

“Would college kids actually celebrate bin Ladens death? I seriously doubt it. They`re probably in mourning of his passing. “

I would say that is a very inaccurate generalization. We should all be celebrating the displays of patriotism by everyone last night and today.

If anything is “vulgar,” it will be seeing images of those “celebrations” in campaign videos.

I just can't understand this.

I've searched the ‘blob-o-sphere’ for past writings from Ms. Dvorak denouncing every country in the Middle-East as ‘vulgar’ for hosting hundreds of thousands of ululating savages as they celebrated 3000+ dead in this country in the days following September 11, 2001, but have not been able to find anything.

She CAN'T be a hypocrite, can she?

Did he cringe when the Pallies celebrated the death of the young Israeli family knifed in their own home, handing out treats to each other on the streets?

You really think most college kids would mourn obl’s death?

I will say, at least she’s consistent.

A lot of those people celebrating were also the ones whining about waterboarding and Bush going after Saddam. Now that their boy is in the White House, it’s all good.

I dunno, at WVU they burned couches in the streets. They partied like the football team had just beaten Ohio State.

Eh, they’re just kids in a media-centric world.

I noticed they were mostly short-haired and neatly groomed and they looked happy even when caught from the side. They knew the words to patriotic songs and for all any of us know, they are the silent majority that usually doesn’t demonstrate.

It is the far left that is *cringing* at American *vulgarity*. These kids did not look like zerObots.

I do not like or support the zerO, but credit where it is due. I hope they do decide to release the death photo, even though it will enrage the jihadis.
