bin laden is dead...dun dun dun.
found this writing in my old junk folder... (i dont think it was ever published anywhere, and im not sure when i wrote it) The hunt for bin laden... The biggest change you see in a country that is ruled by democrats opposed to republicans is... Fear does rule the day anymore. I am watching “The Hunt for Bin Laden” -- and the picture is clear, the fear is gone, and this guy is just a flawed dude with big ideas and a fat bank account. Instead of a set, he was bangin’ hard on the muslim religion. G.W. Bush made him a martyr and played into the game Bin Laden wanted to play...but religious ideology blinded by all parties involved, and we all suffered as a consequence. Under Obama as president, his pragmatic views save us from ourselves – and while religion and faith are for sure a part of who president obama is...they do not seem to have a veto power over his principles. Osama Bin Laden was not the boogie man...he was not much more than an idealistic gang banger ...
