I haven't had a Stroh's in many years. Sounds good. Wish I could get one.

What are they going to do with the body?

**monkeynuts** · 05-01-2011, 11:10 PM

Imagine being the Marine that shot him.

Heard of this from, of all people, Dan Shulman during the Mets/Phils game on ESPN.

I guess "grim satisfaction" would best define my feelings tonight.

Hpoefully they bury him upside down, facing hell instead of Mecca.

I have shivers right now. Spontaneous chants of USA of people outside the White House.

**jonjd** · 05-01-2011, 11:13 PM

The world is a better place with Saddam, his sons, Osama, key al-Qaeda members, and 1000+ other terrorists DEAD. Thanks to GWB and all of the brave souls from around the world who fought for our freedom and are keeping us safe!

**Antrat** · 05-01-2011, 11:14 PM

I hope he **** his pants right before the bullet went through his brain.

**ROMAD1** · 05-01-2011, 11:14 PM

I would definitely want to hear from President Bush.

I would have it disappear forever to prevent a pilgrimage site.

I agree. Its terrific news. And much as it pains me, I'm grateful that President Obama had the wisdom to continue to pursue the war on terror that he was so critical of as a candidate.

The night they drove Bin Laden down, and all the bells were ringing,
The night they drove Bin Laden down, and all the people were singin'. They went
Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na, Na,

A toast with imaginary Stroh's VT!

**hail2mich** · 05-01-2011, 11:19 PM

How much does this affect Obama in the next election?

**monkeynuts** · 05-01-2011, 11:20 PM

If he was really killed in a mansion in Pakistan, you have to believe that Pakistan had to know he was there. I'll be fascinated to see how this plays out.

Certainly helps, but I don't even care. Credit to Bush, Obama, our troops - everyone. Feels great right now.

**Cecil** · 05-01-2011, 11:21 PM

I bet Trump won't believe it.

Long form death certificate??

I wish Obama would get on with it. I have to get up at 5.

**monkeynuts** · 05-01-2011, 11:23 PM

How cool is it to see people flooding to the front of the White House?

**Melody** · 05-01-2011, 11:23 PM

We're watching CNN, but my husband was just showing me a video online of Geraldo Rivera announcing it on Fox. Funny stuff.

**Oblong** · 05-01-2011, 11:24 PM

minor pet peeve.... saying Bin Laden doesn't really work because it's not a surname like we use. Calling him Osama, or Usama, is fine.

**monkeynuts** · 05-01-2011, 11:24 PM

This is probably more symbolic than actually relevant, but it sure is great.

Apparently a leap to get out a story not verified.

**FloridaTigers** · 05-01-2011, 11:24 PM

USA. USA. USA.

How about future Pakistan-USA relations?

Earlier for me. I have to get up early to knock the jockeys off the rich people's lawns, and when they awake, I'll be gone.

Interesting to hear that the US has been telling our agencies all day to prepare in case of a counter attack.

I've always loved news and current events and just love stuff like this.
