They're saying on TV that today is the 8th anniversary of when Bush prematurely announced "Mission Accomplished". How ironic.

I can scarcely believe it, watching like a hawk right now.

I suppose one could say he was a man ahead of his time?

as they've been saying though, this still puts things far from over. Closer than we were though. But, even if Al Qaeda were to collapse there would still be terrorism in the world. Hopefully, not on such an organized level, but there all the same.

Ahead if his time is right. Even a broken clock...

While terrorism will always be a threat to everyone in one form or another and did not start with Al Queda, this is indeed a stunning victory for the USA. I knew Obama would do better, but to deliver Bin Laden in what, 2 years? This will go down in history as a great day. His record is sealed. He did it!

This might be kinda mean, but that man killed over 2000 people on 9/11, and a friend of mine had THREE co-workers die in the attacks. I say bury his body in the foundation of WTC 2. (WTC 1 is already at the 64th floor so you can't do that on WTC1).

It would be.... poetic justice in a way. I know.. sounds mean...

Not mean, but I don't think people would feel comfortable knowing his corpse lies below them. At some point you'd want to move on, y'know?
