6. Yes, sarcasm
No single man is worth that much money, not to mention dead, dying, maimed, and suicidal service people.

2. And it was worth every fucking penny.
Not every life and every mistake. But certainly every penny.

5. ...and involvement in a Soviet-style Afghan quagmire.
Osama may be dead, but the American republic will be dead soon as well.

7. Gore would have either stopped 9/11 before it happened
or if he couldn't do that, he would have found Osama in less then a year and under a billion dollars. Just sayin.

14. Happy? What's there to be happy about?

It's a Pyrrhic victory, at best.

And like King Pyrrhus, we're fucked.

(edit: Sorry, Gratuitous, that was meant to reply to Arkana.)

On somebody else.

19. YES AND THE BILL GOES TO BUSHS ADMINISTRATION

If 17 0f 19 hi-jackers were saudis why did we leave afghanistan (and let ben laden out of a trap) to go to Iraq when his military officals warned him it would be a long drawn out ground war?
simple=0il!
the trumped up wdm's,the nuclear plant etc all proved non-existent!

RIGHT NOW WE SHOULD CONCENTRATE ON OPEC AND SPECULATORS!
I'M GLAD THEY GOT HIM-I HOPE IT WILL STOP THE WASTING OF ALL HUMAN LIFE AND BRING OUR
SONS DAUGHTERS HOME SOON!
