The best news in a long time

Osama bin Laden is dead, according to news stories.  This is the most exciting news in a long time for this guy.  I normally would abhor a celebration of someone’s passing, but this is the most deserved death since Hitler put a bullet in his skull.  Here’s a listing of what this fantasticly huge pile of shit accomplished in his life.  (From wikipedia) “The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 resulted in 2,996 deaths, including the 19 hijackers and 2,977 victims.”  The hijackers don’t count – why in the name of God were they included wikipedia?  This is not counting the USS Cole and God only knows how many other attacks financed by this disease.  (Read the Ivory Tower for his whole story, great book).  I like to think Mr. bin Laden had a stroke and fell on a hot campfire, laying there unable to move, but yet burning slowly in terrible pain.  That’s my wish.  Feel free to comment and speculate in the comments section.  Happy death, freedom hater.  “If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide.” – Abraham Lincoln.  Nice try fucko – we are still standing against dictators, oligarchs, religious fanatics, and everyone else who rejects the idea that free people can select their own government, religion, and stand like a rock against the history of humanity, one of oppression.  “This nation was founded on one principle above all else: the requirement that we stand up for what we believe, no matter the odds or the consequences. When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth, and tell the whole world – “No, you move.” – Captain America.  Yes, I did just quote Abe Lincoln and Cap in the same blog.  Eat it, bin Laden.
