Give it a rest

So it seems Osama is out of the picture. This is a good thing don’t get me wrong. I don’t care who authorized the mission or did or did not know of it. IT’S DONE!!. I don’t care if they blew him to vapor in country or tossed him overboard or if he is cooling his heels in some dark hole getting interrogated to an inch of his life. IT’S DONE!!

Maybe somebody can can start lumping all these stupid Osama threads together and make this forum look a bit more civilized.

You see this is crap is just the latest in political partisan posturing bulls**t that is destroying our country in a worse way that Bin Laden could ever have imagined. It looks really foolish to be bickering about the how, when and where of this issue. I am a bit disgusted at the whole mess and what it has brought to this board. At a time when we should have some pride and respect for our troops and our leaders, we are instead arguing about things that don’t really matter. Shameless and pitiful. We really need to set our priorities for this country and what we are currently doing with this issue cannot really be part of it can it. We are all here collectively waving flags while at the same time pointing fingers. The negativity that this subject is generating is beyond belief.

I feel sorry for the families of those killed on 9/11 and the troops that have died or have been wounded in the war on terror. Because today when they should be experiencing some closure, they are faced with more conflict from within our country because of ridiculous political grandstanding.

Just sad. You should all give it a rest. :peace:

It's snowing in Evergreen

I fully agree with you...for once, great post.

Not for this man, my daughter in the army was wonded in iraq, I wish I could have been at west point cheering as well. As a parent of two children in the military and both young women, you have no idea on how happy I am. Am I wrong for feeling the way I do, I don't think so.

Good for you. I also have family that were there. So celebrate it and be happy and positive about it. THAT is not wrong. But what I see you doing on here today (finger pointing, blame and name calling) is not that.

Your opinion photo...this has to play out...let it!

Why does it 'have to"? This bickering is obviously just a 'One up on you' game to most of the people posting today.

No discussion or results at all.
As I said, shameless, pitiful and sad.

This is a major event, and I mean a big one..let the dross play out..this will pass soon enough, then it will be business as usual..

Major event? For who? The talking heads of media? The blithering idiots that parrot every thing they are told? The folks that like to bring up crap that happened or didn't happen 10+ years ago. People who get their jollies poking others in the eye because of their POLITICS?

How about for the families of those killed and wounded? Have they even been mentioned yet?

Business as usual = partisan polititics tearing the country apart. Yep, you got that part right.

The desperation in the right wing posts today would be amusing if it weren't so damn disgusting.

I remember back when Bush spoke at ground zero right after 9/11. The country came together in sorrow, Democrats and Republicans....one nation. Now, almost 10 years later,at a time when we should come together again, some cannot put aside their hate and anger and act like Americans.

If Bush had gotten Bin Laden I would have been as happy as I am today...all through his presidency I hoped he would get bin Laden. For certain people to diminish this event by turning into one more opportunity to bash liberals and Obama disgusts me.

But carry on...you will ne known by what you post.

You mean like the Taliban? The Mujaheddin? Osama bin Laden? The bozos strapping on bombs and trying to kill our soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan? Those are the ones we created through black-op policies during the eighties, smuggling operations in the nineties, drug smuggling operations that funded the CIA during the sixties, seventies, eighties, nineties and most likely the present day. Economic deprivation throughout the years, inconsistent policies that hurt most businesses, private enterprise, middle and lower socio-economic classes.
